I did a self defense speech two weeks ago. Another student came to me and told me she had got the Just Yell Fire DVD. A few of her daughter's friends were approached a week ago, they were lucky enough to get away. Now her daughter is taking the DVD to school for her class to watch. I'm again SO happy that you have made this movie, and I'm glad that there are girls learning to defend themselves. THANK YOU!!!

Just thought I would drop a line to say I appreciate what you do for young women.  I have been a Probation Officer for over 25 years, a martial artist for over 30 years and a self-defense and personal safety instructor for over 20 years.  During every session I teach I encourage young women and their parents to go to your web page for valuable information to enhance their personal safety.  Keep up the good work.

I checked out the link for your daughter's film. Very cool! I was thinking about it this morning when I was on the treadmill and CNN had a piece on ladies that were potential military recruits being raped by their recruiters. They interviewed this one person, who was sixteen at the time of the rape, and her responses made me think that she just didn't have a clue how to fight back. I hope your daughter's movie empowers women to not only learn how to fight back, but to take action when they need to!

Awesome, teenage level everything as well as an interest holder!!! Fabulous mature job!!! I would love to order a dvd to present to our high school health class during "Planned Parenthood" education visits, as it is mostly girls. It would be a wonderful addition of curriculum not ever taught. Thanks again for such a good job!!! I saw you all on Montel and pulled up your site before your segment was even over. I'm betting MILLIONS of others did too – Congratulations!!!!!

So pleased to know you and your work

This is a comment sent in to our trainers Leila Rae Sommerfeld and Valerie Mainridge of Gresham, OR

Thank you again from our entire team! You and Valerie did such a fabulous job. Several of our volunteers commented at the end that your traiing was the best self-defense class they had ever taken - and several had attended classes in the past. you adapted your presentation to fit perfectly into our time constraints and skill level. You and Valerie brought such great energy and enthusiasm to our class. We especially appreciate you taking time on a Sunday. We feel empowered to continue to advocate for sexually exploited women in and around Portland.

We are so pleased to know you and your work. I hope this is only the beginning of our partnership.

I saw this advertised in In Touch magazine. It is such a great idea! I have friends that have teenage daughters and mine are also reaching that age. Thank you!

I just wanted to update you and let you know that we are teaching Just Yell Fire in our HS PE classes, and the girls are loving it! Thanks again for helping us to get started.

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!

Thank you for being courageous enough to make this film. I have granddaughters I would like to protect by empowering them with the tools for such events. I am grateful to you.

Thank You for what you have done for every girl in this country....

Having been a survivor of date rape in my teens I try to educate my 14 yr old daughter daily but sometimes I think it falls on deaf ears I'm hoping this DVD will EMPOWER her the way I was not...

Thanks Again.
