From Bystander to Leader: How Georgetown’s Bully Prevention Programs Teach Kids to Make a Difference

Transforming ordinary moments into opportunities for courage and compassion.

Not every child is bullied — but every child will witness it.
That’s why Team Rabadi Georgetown Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu believes in teaching students not just how to defend themselves, but how to stand up for others.

This powerful message of leadership and empathy is at the heart of the academy’s bully prevention curriculum.

Turning Bystanders Into Role Models

Children are taught that silence can sometimes enable bullying — and that kindness and awareness can stop it.

By giving kids the confidence to speak up, invite others in, or seek help, they become the leaders every school and community needs.

That kind of courage is built through training — repetition, confidence, teamwork, and communication.

Building Everyday Leaders

Under Professor Robby Rabadi’s mentorship, kids learn that true leaders are those who protect others. They understand boundaries, respect, and empathy.

These lessons extend far beyond class. Students begin to naturally help others, lead group projects, and encourage peers — shaping the kind of culture Georgetown is proud of.

Creating a Ripple Effect

When children learn leadership and confidence, they bring it home. Parents notice better behavior, increased empathy, and stronger communication skills. Teachers see more collaboration and fewer conflicts.

That’s the ripple effect of real bully prevention — not just avoiding harm but actively creating kindness.
