這項課程的成長，是最近數月以來發生了許多中國學校死亡攻擊事件的反映。

Kung fu Instructor Zhang Xiaohang now teaches about 10 classes per week, a total of more than 60 kids.
功夫師傅張曉漢現在每周教授十堂課，總共有超過六十名小孩。
[Zhang Xiaohang, Head Kung Fu Instructor, Changzhen Kung Fu School]:
“There have been many changes recently. Before, only one or two students would come to class, but since last week, we have received about 30 inquiries. A lot of parents register their children for the self-defense class without much hesitation. This trend did not exist before. Parents are putting more emphasis on children’s safety."
[張曉漢，功夫總教練，長禎功夫學校]：
最近有很大的改變，以前只有一、二位學生來上課，但是自上個星期以來，我們已經接到了超過30位的詢問。很多家長沒有什麼猶豫，就幫小孩報名登記自我保衛的課程。這樣的趨勢以前都沒有過。家長們開始更加注意小孩的安全。
Some children get more out of the classes than just self-defense.
有些小孩在課堂上獲得的，不只是自我防衛。
[Deng Ziheng, Student]:
“I am a little bit fat so I want to lose some weight. Second of all, there have been many school attacks recently and I want to know how to prevent such attacks. So it is best if I learn these skills."
[丁子恆，學生]：
“我有點胖，所以我想減重，其次是最近很多學校遭到攻擊，我想要知道如何去防禦這類的攻擊。所以如果我學習這些技巧，那是最好的。”
Ten-year-old He Shizhou is a two-year veteran of the class. He said that if attacked, he will first try to escape.
十歲的丁子恆在這課堂上，是已學了兩年的老生。他說如果遭到攻擊，
他會先試著逃走。
[He Shizhou, Student]:
“First of all, I will use defense skills my teacher has taught me. If not, I will use my bag to hit the potential attacker."
[何汐洲，學生]：
“首先，我會用老師教的防禦技巧，如果不行，我會用我的提包打攻擊者”
There have been six attacks on Chinese schools in the last two months, leaving 18 people dead and more than 80 wounded.
