This class included so much more than just the physical aspects of self-defense. Becky did a very good job at talking about the hard things that many parents don’t discuss. She thoroughly covered the topic of consent and taught the kids the importance of situational awareness. This is especially important in todays time where kids always have their heads buried in their phones. My daughter seems to think that I’m just a worry wort and that there’s no real danger in the world. I am hoping that some of the skills learned in this class stick with her, because unfortunately, children are not as invincible as they may feel. We practice how to escape from wrist locks and chokeholds at home now and she even wants a punching bag of her own to practice some moves on. I cannot recommend this class enough!

I am so impressed with Becky’s ability to connect with her class. She broached scary subjects in a calm and direct way with the kiddos. I was lucky enough to be able to stay in the room with them during the class and witness her magic. I am so thankful for the confidence and courage I saw her bring out in my girls. I teared up several times watching them learning and working hard for themselves. I know they will carry this knowledge with them for the rest of their lives.

My 12 year old son recently took this class. Afterwards he said it was “way more fun” than he expected it to be. I also observed the class and learned a lot. The class was upbeat, informative, and supportive. Thank you for teaching us excellent skills to keep ourselves and each other safe!

Becky did a great job teaching the kids how to first keep themselves safe with identifying their situation and self awareness. What is happening and how can I escape if I want to leave before the situation escalates. She taught the importance of the buddy system and knowing your surroundings. She also did a great job of teaching the kids to use their power if they were ever in need of using the skills she taught. I would recommend her class for sure.

My daughter absolutely loved this class. She came home and showed our family what she learned, physical defense to mental defense. She wants to take class again and so does my son.

Becky was great. Great information. Great speaking with younger kids. She impacted my daughter greatly as she is already practicing what she learned! I highly recommend the class!!!

My 12 year daughter attended this class with a group of her friends/classmates. The two hours spent with Becky provided her with knowledge/skills that she can utilize for the rest of her life! She was taught actions that can be implemented immediately. As a parent, I have an increased peace/comfort knowing that my daughter has a greater self-awareness and is more equipped to protect herself, if the need were to arise. In addition, after attending Becky’s youth class, my daughter now has a desire to learn more (which we will do!).
Highly recommend this class!
P.S. And, after seeing Becky and her teachings/passion in action, I will be signing up for the adult class!
