Women's Self-Defense Instructors
Chris is a firearms instructor and an advocate of realistic, practical self-defense. He has studied with Bong Soo Han; Louis Awerbuck at the Yavapai Firearms Academy; Scott Reitz and Brett McQueen at International Tactical Training Seminars; and Steve Tarani at Contact Defense. He has taught at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute and West Coast Tactical. "Situational awareness and the willingness to fight for ones life are personal decisions – but they are not enough. We must also learn practical defensive skills that are effective, reflexive and repeatable under pressure. Expect the unexpected and train to stay in the fight until you are safe. "One in five women will be attacked during their lifetime. As a self-defense / firearms student and instructor, I have observed the inadequate training and suggestions offered to women seeking practical every-day defensive skills. "Situational awareness, mindset, and carrying oneself with the confidence gained from honing (and maintaining) practical rape escape fighting skills will decrease the odds of being selected as ‘prey’ and attacked. "As a self defense / firearms instructor I feel the Rape Escape program offer female students practical, proven escape skills that apply to situations they will encounter on the street or at home. Also, many of the skills apply to any attack by a larger opponent and benefit male students as well." Contact info Web site: www.americandefenseenterprises.com E-mail:

"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."
