I think what you are doing is great, I am proud to live in a world where there are still people out there who care. I am gonna hang on to this cd for my daughter for when she gets a little bit older. Thank you!!!

You would have been so proud of Dallas today. She stood up in front of our 400 students with the greatest poise and composure. She drew them in from the start and had them laughing and listening at the same time. I shared the DVD with a girls school in Memphis.

Thank you for your help in connecting us with Dallas.

I just wanted to say that what you're doing is an absolutely AMAZING thing. I am one of the Managers at the Build a Bear Workshop in Annapolis MD and I discovered your organization after flipping through a preview of our upcoming Huggable Heroes calendar. While it's always great to see kids helping other kids, in 6 years a BABW, none of the organizations ever REALLY hit home with me...but your's definitely did. I am 23 now, but when I was 16...I had a boyfriend that brutally attacked me. I feel like knowing more about how to fight back might've not only prevented the first incident, but things I went through for two and a half years with this boy after the fact. A film like your film would've really been a great thing to see in school...or anywhere really. So, while this isn't a strong enough word by any stretch of the imagination, kudos on what you've done and continue to do here!!!

First off I want to tell you I saw you on Montel & thought what you are doing is very impressive. It is wonderful seeing teenagers doing something so productive to help others in the community.

Not only does your video help teen girls & women, but I want to order one to have my young son watch it to help fight off any child predator that might try to abduct him. I really think your video should be shown to all young children as well to prepare them for circumstances that may arise such as attempted child abduction. Unfortunately we see all too often on the news what happens to young children who are caught off guard by these predators. Your video is a wonderful tool to help better prepare children to defend themselves. Again, thank you for making such a wonderful video to help others.
I will pass the word on to everyone I know.

This morning I had the good fortune of checking in on the "everything self-defense" blog by Tom Callos. I must say it was a pleasure to view "Just Yell Fire". I can't believe that I have never come across this tremendous piece on women's self-defense. Your daughter, Dallas and her friend are truly ambassadors on a subject that is only taken to lightly.

I have been teaching martial arts and situational self-defense since 1978. Only since 1997 has my school focused on the anti-abduction of children and the protection, rape prevention, and quick escape for women. We have implemented much of the information that is offered on this DVD through sources such as John Hall's "Date Escape" and Tony Blauer's "Rape Prevention".

The key that makes "Just Yell Fire" so solid is "who" is presenting this film. The two girls, the police officer, and Dallas' instructor give the targeted audience a much better presentation. It will be so much easier for girls and parents to pay attention and to stay interested.

I truly look forward to scheduling and evening with daughters and parents so that we may view "Just Yell Fire" together. I'm not sure if it's possible for me to download and burn the video to DVD. But I will give it a try and I look forward to sending as many parents as possible to your website.

This CD is 1,000 percent BETTER than I thought it was going to be and I AM TOTALLY BLOWN AWAY!! THIS CD SO ROCKS! THANK YOU FOR CREATING IT...

Please forward this to all corporate officers and board members:

As a mother of two young girls, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support of such a worthy endeavor.

As a citizen of the United States of America and the great State of Oregon, your corporate sponsorship is a beacon and model to all other corporations that giving of corporate funds to the community is not only a duty of the corporate sector, but truly the backbone of what makes America such a great and noble country.

Directly due to your actions, not one, but many and even, perhaps, thousands of girls will be empowered by, "Just yell Fire!" and their lives spared from pain and even death.

As leaders of this corporation, you should be proud of your company, just as a parent is proud of a child.

Thank you for fulfilling the dreams of these young women to make a difference and save people all over the world from these horrible crimes.

What you are doing is amazing. I plan to have a "Just Yell Fire" birthday party for my 18th birthday. I think all my friends need to know your techniques before we head off to college. Thank you!

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!

Katherine and Dallas, I am very proud of the effort you have made to make all of this a reality.
