A big THANK YOU to Lee Merrill for a fantastic class last night!It was such a "kick" to see all the feisty ladies in our ward get their attack on!
Lee taught us wonderful techniques to get out of different kinds of attacks...
*If you are grabbed by the arm
*If you are grabbed by the throat
*If you are being pushed
*If you are attacked from behind and someone is trying to pick you up and throw you in a car
*He even gave us tips for our kids if they are being grabbed
**One rule of thumb we learned*
*NEVER, NEVER get inside someone else's car and let them take you anywhere!If they threaten to shoot you...let them shoot you!You have a better chance of survival to get shot in a parking lot where others can come to your aid and receive medical attention, then to be taken to a different location,then being shot and dumped out in nowhere!Scary but true!
Also...try to avoid going shopping or running errands alone at night,we are easy targets!
There will be another Self Defense Night soon so get ready to join us next time!
