I was just setting for my daily coffee when Montel came on, I heard about the DVD that two young girls had made, so I watched your DVD. WOW! How proud I was to see what a great job you and your friend had done, and now by paying it forward will help so many young girls and even children. I was a victim many many years ago and it still haunts me to think I had no idea on how to fight back. My attacker was not a stranger but my own father, however if I had known or seen a DVD such as yours I would have known to fight no matter who was the assaulter was.

I'm now a grandmother of two beautiful grandchildren and I don't know what I would do if anyone ever hurt them. I'm so proud of the work you have done and the strength and courage you have shown in your DVD.

Thank you for your Efforts and thank you for sharing such a wonderful DVD. Keep up the great work girls.

Just a quick note to let you know how much we ALL enjoyed the program on Saturday...AND how much we enjoyed meeting you, Dallas & Matt! The day turned out to be even more than we had hoped for...valuable information...wonderful people...and sincere commitment to make a difference in this world. You are all very special...

We would like to have you return to Sequim next year...

Thanks Again, Missy, Soroptimists Club of Sequim

The DVD is a great Help, our 19 cheerleaders were impressed, they talked things over..we got in a big circle and then we practiced all the hits/kicks/ and we had a black belt from our YMCA come in and he held their arm, they all got away, it was the most fun I've had in a long time, and I was proud of the girls for putting effort and concentration into what they were doing. I think they learned what they needed to learn.

I was raped by 2 men on my 17th birthday. I was a virgin. I am interested in informing other young women about this. I am now 46, but it had totally affected my whole life. My husband tells me I should try to help others, he is right because it might finally help me after all these years.

I was wanting to know if Dallas could hold a seminar in Clovis New Mexico for my church. I think that the girls will really enjoy it and it will help them. I heard Dallas speak when she came to Clovis at the Clovis Community College and after she spoke and I learned all the techniques, a problem had occured where I had to use one of them. She helped me so much and I really want her to help the girls at my church too.

I have watched the DVD and I think you have done a great and creative job. I think it will be quite valuable to young girls. I have 6 grand-daughters and I am very much concerned for their safety. I think your work is a great step forward in helping to keep young women safe. Also I really think your statements as to worth and self-esteem as well as "rights" was an added touch of tremendous importance. Thanks again.

Hey, I just wanted to tell you guys that I think that what you guys are doing is amazing. Too many girls don't know what to do in a situation where they feel that their voice has been taken away, and I think it's great that you let them know how powerful their voice is, and that you teach them how to get it back. I know it's helped many. You guys are great.

My name is Ellie and I'm fifteen years old. Today I was reading a Tae Kwon Do magazine and ran across Just Yell Fire. So I went to your website and watched the movie. I think what you guys are doing is awesome and that girls need to know that its ok to fight back and don't be afraid if someone threatens you. I'm just a yellow belt in TKD right now. But I've already learned some important self defense and how to help others in a harmful situation. The video was great and I really appretiated that you guys showed different ways to defend yourself, in different situations. My mom and Dad have always taught me to walk with confidence and to alway pay attention to that gut feeling. I can usually tell when something doesn't feel right and I always try to avoid vulnerable situations. I think that the message you guys are trying to spead is extremely important and that every girl should see this video. Thank you so much.

I was so impressed with the Just Yell Fire video that a few weeks ago I brought it to the attention of one of the guidance counselors at our local high school, Hinsdale Central High School, Hinsdale, Illinois. I got word from him today that he had shared the video with the school's physical education and health teachers. They thought it was great and they have decided to use it in their classes.

I train and teach Soo Bahk Do in the Mount Vernon Washington area. While looking at one of our regional web sites, www.camaskarate.com there was an article on Just Yell Fire and how it was created.

I'd personally like to thank you and all involved for providing awareness to not only women but people of all ages. Awareness is an important key.

I've recently been asked to provide self defense training to my fellow co workers (nurses) and their children.

I look forward to sharing my information and requesting all attendees watch your video-then pay it forward to family, friends and loved ones. It's this type of crucial information that should be required viewing (and learning) in all schools.

What a gift it would be to each and every recipient!

Again, thank you to all for creating such an important film. May it travel around the world and touch the lives of millions!
