OUR GOAL:
To help women feel informed, capable, and prepared — not fearful — by providing tools for awareness, avoidance, and responsible protection.

Part 1: Gym Training — Self-Defense & Fighting to Your Gun
This session focuses on the physical side of personal protection: what to do when avoidance fails and you must create space and control.
Participants will learn:
• Practical self-defense techniques for real-world situations
• How to create distance and break contact safely
• How to protect yourself long enough to access your defensive tools
The focus is not sport fighting — it’s survival, escape, and control under stress.

Part 2: Situational Awareness Training (Hosted at the Willard Police Department)
This session teaches how to recognize threats before they escalate and how to move through the world with confidence and awareness.
Participants will learn:
• How attackers select targets
• Reading environments, exits, and risks
• Body language, boundary setting, and verbal de-escalation
• Decision-making under stress
The goal is prevention first — learning how to avoid dangerous situations whenever possible.

Part 3: Firearm Range— Introduction to Defensive Firearm Use
This session is designed especially for beginners and those new to firearms. Think of it as a “learner’s permit” for responsible gun ownership.”
Participants will learn:
• Firearm safety and handling fundamentals
• How to safely load, hold, and operate a handgun
• Range etiquette and safe shooting practices
• Building comfort and confidence through guided live-fire instruction
No prior experience is required. Instruction will be supportive, structured, and paced for learning.

Who This Training Is For
• Women new to self-defense or firearms
• Those wanting to feel more confident in their personal safety
• Anyone seeking practical, responsible preparation and skills
