MARLBORO, NJ - A Marlboro martial arts studio welcomed the township’s finest to an important workshop surrounding child safety earlier this month.

With assistance from Marlboro police officers, children at Marlboro ATA Martial Arts learned basic self-defense, awareness and the warning signs to avoid dangerous situations at a free seminar on Feb. 4.

“I would like to sincerely thank the Marlboro Township Police Department for helping us with our Children’s Safety Seminar … it was a wonderful success,” the martial arts studio wrote on Facebook. “If anyone missed it and would like to be on a waiting list for the next one please comment below or contact us!”
