EZ Defense for Women: An Empowering Course

This location is shown only to members

DENIAL will not save your life, protect your children or shield your family from your loss. PREPARATION can! In today's world, YOU have to take responsibility for your safety. If you are approached and no one else is there, YOU have to save yourself! Handguns, tasers, mace, etc. only work if you have them in your hand at the moment you are approached AND if you can keep calm enough to use them properly. Assuming 'it won't happen to me", is denying reality. It can happen to anyone! Elderly women, teen-agers, mothers out with their children, women who meet strangers in their line of work or who enter/leave work at odd hours: all are at risk!

Who is going to change this? Who is going to keep us from being attacked? WE ARE! When the aggressor on the street has to stop and wonder if his potential victim will put him down, then (and only then) will we see it change.

Learn how to back an aggressor down with words, attitude and body language! Learn how to use simple techniques to handle an actual attack. Best of all, learn it in a way that becomes instinct: you don't have to stop and remember and you don't have to keep practicing, it just happens!

Hundreds of women in Knoxville have taken this course. It is worth one morning to protect your life. Please register early: these sessions have been selling out due to the low cost. Come and meet new friends, find complete support and learn in a safe, secure environment. See you there!

    I really wish more women would take the time to learn to protect themselves and their families. 3.5 hours could certainly prevent a tragedy!
