Statistics say a person is 10 times more likely to survive if you are prepared and react with conviction.
Proficiency increases your survival.
The other 10% of self defense is physical skills. This too begins with an awakening of the physical power within you.
Please continue your path of survival by attending a follow-up physical skills self defense class and sharpening your mental and physical survival skills.
