Free Womens' Self-Defense Workshops at All NW Schools of Oom Yung Doe, Sep. 30, 11:30 AM and 6:45 PM

PR Log (Press Release) – Sep 22, 2009 – Violence against women is a terrible problem that has affected people from all countries and all walks of life.  In the United States alone, approximately 1 in 5 women have experienced an attempted or completed rape in their lives, and 25% - 31% of women report having been physically or sexually abused by their husbands or boyfriends at some point in their lives.  (Sources:  The Commonwealth Fund, The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, and the National Institute of Justice.)  Fortunately, there IS something you can do about it.

Verbal and physical self-defense is effective!
•  81% of women who were attacked and tried running from their attackers were able to escape.
•  62% who screamed or yelled escaped.
•  68% who used physical force of any kind escaped.
    (Source:  1998 FBI criminal victimization survey)

Join us at the any of the below schools of Oom Yung Doe to learn the “Shock, Scream, and Run” technique of self-defense.  The techniques are simple, easy to learn, and can be immediately effective.  The workshop will last about one hour.  Wear loose, comfortable clothing and bring a friend!
