  A friend of mine organized a group of women to take a class from Rebecca at Defense-ability.  Rebecca, along with her assistant Corey, first taught us how to avoid situations and how to be aware of our surroundings.  Then, they taught us techniques to use if contact was unavoidable.  I have taken some self defense classes in the past, and they have all had you partner up and try out the "moves."  We did partner up in this class, but what made this class different was that Rebecca was walking around, making sure we were doing things right.  She would act as the attacker and "test" each of us and have us keep going until we did it right.  I enjoyed her style--serious information along with a dose of humor.  I would highly recommend this class for any woman who wants to be pro-active about her safety.
