Defend Yourself! May 4, 2007 | E-mail

Stay Safe!
We all know that living in a big city comes with a certain personal responsibility to be smart and conscious of our surroundings, especially for women.

Detroit is awesome but sometimes bad things happen and it's those times where self-defense will come in handy. I don't mean that you have to go out and become a black belt in Tae Kwon Do. What I do mean is that by learning just a few tricks to get out of sticky situations, you will hopefully keep yourself safer.


Mejishi Martial Arts in Ferndale has several self-defense programs available, including a comprehensive 6-week course for beginners, and Confront the Shadow for those who are more experienced or just very brave. Citizen Defense Training in Rochester Hills has personal self defense courses and they even offer Stay Safe Parties for you and a group of your friends.


Just knowing in the back of your mind that you can take someone down will give you an extra boost of confidence. Didn't you know that confidence is the new black?
