From Near Death Violence Survivor to Krav-Maga Instructor and advocate for Women's Empowerment and Children's Safety.
I have personally found the importance of knowing how to defend myself. My experience of being attacked violently and almost killed brought me to learn self-defense. Since the violence took place in my life, I have committed years of self-reflection to face the reality of the effects of trauma. I am grateful to have received assistance from mentors and friends to support my emotional state after such a horrible experience. There became one clear choice for me, to learn how to stand up for myself by learning how to utilize my mind and body to protect myself and others. Today I train daily with Krav Maga Self defense and safety weapons training. these choices of self-empowerment offer me inner stability. I now realize how powerful we are. I have a direct and clear message to others, this message is, That each one of us ourselves is the only one responsible for rising in the face of danger and knowing how to protect life. Your life is valuable. Tomorrow is never promised, I invite you to stand up.
