Defense-ability-reb

  You definitely learn a lot by attending a class. I didn't sign up for regular classes but just wanted to try it out once. First off, Rebecca is both warm and passionate about what she does. She also has a pretty extensive background in regards to defense tactics.

I would say for the one-time class, it's basically a spark notes version of the basics of what you can do in the more common attack situations (with actual drills and intense practice...we got to punch and kick a dummy to a pulp).

What I appreciated the most about the session was being reminded of how unnecessary it is to worry about your self-image or politeness when being confronted with danger. When your life is on the line, who cares about how loud you are or if you blatantly reject an advance...like a boss? No pity. And how about putting down those phones while walking y'all? Is scrolling through your Facebook or Instagram feed that important?

Yah. She's passionate about your safety and so am I.
