Bio

Laura Dejean is the CEO an program director of www.strongsmartsafe.com, which provides violence prevention programs to corporations, educational institutions, gyms and public groups and facilities.

Laura's journey in the Martial Arts and combat training began as a teenager when she joined the Intl. Alliance of Guardian Angels in Europe. She spent several years teaching citizen's arrest and self defense programs across Europe before moving to NYC in 1998 as international training director and Muay Thai competitor.

Her passion for empowering and educating children and women stems from her own experiences of sexual abuse and years of domestic violence while growing up in Germany. It created a deep understanding of the effects of trauma and violence, abuse cycles, addictions and stress disorders.

She is a firm believer that assertiveness & self defense training as well as violence prevention programs should be accessible to every child, teen and woman. ​

She currently resides with her two children in Somerset County, NJ and trains / competes out of Wilkie's MMA, is a Certified Personal Trainer and Nutrition Coach.
