(Frequently Asked Questions)

Q: |
|
Where and when do you
hold your classes? |
|
A: |
|
Everywhere and
anytime! We come to you. We teach most of our classes
in homes, churches, offices and backyards. All we need
from you is enough space to teach the class. We come
with our own gear and mats. On occasion, we also teach
community classes that are open to the female public.
For future classes and availability, check out our

Q: |
|
I have an injury. Can I
still participate? |
|
A: |
|
Yes! We handle all types
of injuries on a regular basis. Athletic injuries like
“back” and “joints” are easy to work around. If you have
extensive injuries, it is best to call ahead so that we
can discuss if you need to wait to take the class until
the healing process is over. |

|
Q: |
|
I’m a senior citizen. Can
I participate? |
|
A: |
|
Yes! Some of our best students are over the age of 65.
Our classes do not require great physical strength or
stamina. Women of all ages (over the age of 15) are
welcomed and encouraged. |
|
|
|
|
Q: |
|
I haven’t exercised in a
long time. I am afraid that I might be too out of shape
to participate. |
|
A: |
|
None of our classes require great strength or stamina.
No matter your level of physical fitness, you can still
defend yourself! |
|
|
|
|
Q: |
|
I’m not sure that one
class is enough for me to learn how to defend myself.
Will I only need to take the class once? |
|
A: |
|
After the class, you will definitely walk away with a
new found confidence and a real grasp of the principles
of self defense. However, we believe that practice makes
perfect. We recommend you practice the techniques on
your own, and take a refresher course every three to six
months. |
|
|
|
|
Q: |
|
Can you come to my church
or office to teach a class? |
|
A: |
|
We travel for group
classes if an appropriate space is available. We must
know the square footage of the class in advance. The
class requires a certain amount of space for
participants to get the full benefits. If the space you
have does not meet our requirements we can split
participants into two separate two hour classes. If you
book a class and then find that your group is unable to
attend, please call to cancel your reservation within 48
hours or you will be charged in full for the class. |

|
Q: |
|
I'm
worried about a home invasion. What can I do to feel
more secure? |
|
A: |
|
We
would recommend that you first, take a self defense
class! Second, look into a Home Security System. We are
authorized dealers with Counterforce USA and we can come
to your home to access your level of vulnerability to
see if a Home Security System is right for you.
