Women's Self-Defense Instructors
He teaches children and adults in the Korean Martial arts and women in the Rape Escape method. He became a women's self-defense instructor because no such program existed in his community. He is a professor at one of the two colleges in his community and wanted to bring the program to these students as well. "There is a void in qualified women’s self defense programs that actually work. I wanted to offer a program that will help give women the tools to have a chance in an attack and not teach them something that will backfire on them. "Women need to understand the dynamics involved in assault. The environment, the types of attackers, and need to have some type of training to be able to react in a way that could save their lives or the lives of their children or others."

"In a stranger-rape situation, if he allows you to see his face, you get his name, or you can somehow otherwise identify your attacker, and he knows it, it’s all the more important to get away from him, even if he has a knife and you are risking injury. Because unless he’s quite inexperienced, he’s likely to kill you to leave no witnesses." Program a Long Time Coming "The concept of enlightening women to 'fight like girls' is a long time coming. We should have been doing this years ago. The female body is built differently and can be used effectively against a male attacker if trained properly. Defend University and the Rape Escape program have proven again and again that the Fight Like a Girl program is successful, easy to learn and easy to deliver."
