Nora D.Reviewed on 04/04/16I highly recommend this class! Kevin taught us simple but effective self-defense strategies and promised to send us notes and videos afterward to help us remember what we learned. Update: He did NOT send us any materials after class. :(

Very informative and I learned so much in one class! Kevin taught us its important to be aware of our surroundings and that we were capable of so much. I would definitely recommend this class to all my female friends.

Great instructor! He is very funny while being so informative at the same time. He takes the time to explain why a move works. He also answered all of our questions about different scenarios. Definitely worth going to!

I had far more fun than I expected at a self defense class. I was concerned that I might leave terrified. Kevin does a great job of keeping things humorous and fun while teaching very important techniques and instilling a healthy awareness without making you paranoid.
