My daughter (a St. Mary's student) was really impacted by this project and the powerful information within.

I want to start out by saying thank you for making this video, I think it will help a lot of young girls defend themselves from an attacker. I have several nieces that I want to see this video so that maybe they will know how to act if they ever find themselves in an unthinkable situation. I wished I had known about something like that when I was a teenager/young woman. I was date raped when I was twenty years old and I did not think there was anything that I could do because I went with this guy on my own free will. I tried to fight back but it was not enough. Please send me this video because I want the girls in my family to be prepared.

Last night I was reading People magazine and saw the article about giving girls the power to fight back. I visited the website, justyellfire.com and watched the movie. I proceeded to forward the website link to many friends and family in hopes that word will continue to spread about this amazing video.

I am incredibly impressed with Dallas and Catherine, their families and everyone who participated in putting together the movie and website. I am absolutely convinced that many lives will be saved and many potential rapes will be stopped. I am trying to teach my children that each person should live their lives such that they are contributing something of value to their family, their community and humanity. When we pass from the screen of life, we should be able to look back and know that we made a difference. Well, Dallas and Catherine have already done so, before they have even graduated high school! They are to be congratulated for being such wonderful role models.

Please let them know that I, as a mother, am so grateful for the work they have done, and the tools they have provided to my 3 children to help protect themselves. If I could keep them safe every moment of every day, I would do so in a heartbeat. Of course, that is not possible and so they need to know how to help themselves. Again, thank you so very much.

First I would like to say Thank You for caring enough about other people to create such a wonderful, informative movie! I just learned about your DVD on Montel Williams, and as a mother of 6 daughters it definitely caught my attention! I would like to request a DVD of "Just Yell Fire" so I can show my daughters, as well as try to get it shown at our school, etc. You should be very proud of yourselves, not only have you touched many lives, you have saved many lives! Thank you again!

The DVD came today. I watched it with my daughter. Very well done, very informative. It's a relief to know that even a non-athlete can do something to protect herself. Thank you so much!

Greetings. I am the manager of the central parole office in Multnomah County, and your presentation has just been brought to my attention. I also manage a team of sex offender officers, and wanted to say Im most impressed with this production. You are certainly to be congratulated. I would like to help spread this important information.

I think the time and effort that you and your team put into this film is invaluable. I have two daughters, (12 & 14) who are just not interested in taking any type of martial arts, but they have both agreed to sit with me and watch your film. You and your team are an inspiration to all young women everywhere. Thank you for taking the time to make such and incredibly helpful film. Again thank you for the help that this film will be to thousands of young women.

First let me say how impressed I was when I saw the 2 of you on Montel this afternoon. You are both to be commended. I would like to request a copy of the DVD Just yell fire. I am taking a group of 8 teenage girls from my youth group to a very large conference in St. Louis this summer. I think showing them this film will go a very long way in easing some of the parents minds about sending their daughters so very far away to such a large city. Thank you very much for your efforts. You should be very proud of yourselves!

A few days ago I watched Montel on TV and on the episode they talked about "just yell fire". I was so impresed by what the girls had done that I downloaded the move from your webbsite. I write this email to tell you how fare the move has gone and that I will tell all my friends about it.

I think it is an incredible thing what these girls have done. If any of them wants they are free to contact me by email, or if they don't want to do that I just want to send them all my luck and blessings.

You are an inspiration

Hi. I am a member of the Sexual Assault Task Force in Morehead, Kentucky. I saw your write up in the In Touch magazine and went to your website. I think what you did is amazing and the reason why I am emailing you is because I would really like to have this on DVD so the task force can use it during speeches and activities that we plan throughout the year to raise awareness in our community.
