October Activity: Self-Defense

Self-Defense
Thank you Tringle Witt for teaching the sisters such a GREAT class! You are AWESOME!!!

A few highlights from the class:

  • First step to keeping yourself safe is HOW YOU APPEAR TO OTHERS. Do you appear to be an easy victim? (They are looking for easy targets--DON'T be that!). Don't look vulnerable, be STRONG & CONFIDENT!
    • Eyes--make eye contact with those around you--let people know you see them, be aware of your surroundings.
    • Voice--use a confident voice.
    • Arms--loosely to side.
    • Back/Neck--upright, shoulder back, not hunched.
    • Speed--maintain your pace, don't rush or look scared.

  • General Rules of Self-Defense
    • Follow the promptings of the Spirit! Listen.
    • Never let anyone force you in a car. (kick, scream, fight--cause a scene!)
    • Never let anyone force you do to anything you don't want to.
    • Your voice is a valuable self defense tool.
    • Fight until you can get help or get out of there.
      • Eyes, Nose, Throat, Ears, Knee, Groin 
    • Practice will give you confidence, as well as something for the spirit to work with.
    • Identify with your attacker (talk with them, try to get them to feel human, make a connection)
    • Be able to describe and identify your attacker.
