Self Defense Program - November 6, 2008

Yesterday in our ALPS workshop we had a presenter that did a self defense program and it was awesome. I wish every female on campus could have attended. He gave so many tips and suggestions. It takes an assailant, victim & opportunity for a crime to take place. Be a survivor - keep positive attitude & be a winner. Don't under estimate criminals. Four areas he talked about crimes occurring were: Home, workplace, car and shopping mall.

One tip I found interesting that everyone might consider, if you walk or run daily, is to carry 2 Alka Seltzers in your pocket and if you're grabbed, pretend to get sick & as you bend over put the two alka seltzers in your mouth and they will cause you to foam at the mouth & the assailant might be turned off and leave you alone.
