Prepare, Inc.
Women's Self-Defense Courses
800-442-7273
www.prepareinc.com
This comprehensive 20-hour program covers a wide range of personal safety skills including physical skills, verbal strategies, and awareness and avoidance skills. The program also covers psychological strategy and mental readiness. All skills are practiced in inter-active scenarios enabling students to learn to deal with the "freeze response’ and to assess a situation and respond quickly and appropriately while in the adrenaline state. Physical skills are practiced full contact, full force against fully padded instructors trained in recreating common assault scenarios. I highly recommend the program. Other programs are also available.
SOB's (Sounds of Brazil)

She is honest in her transactions and will find you the amazing deals for a high quality stone, and if there's somewhere else you can get a better deal, she will tell you about it. I personally wouldn't purchase from anyone else. She has my full trust. |
