Top Reasons Not To Take Self-Defense
Having become certified to teach Women’s Self-Defense, I want to offer the class to as many women as possible. When I tell people what we cover in the course and how it can help them, I am often met with one of the following responses. I would like to address them here:
“I just don’t have time.” This is one of the most common excuses I hear for not taking a self-defense class. I understand how busy everyone is these days. We multi-task and take shortcuts, and still don’t get everything done that we need to. And then there are the kids’ activities on top of it all!
It would be great if we could tell an attacker, “I’m sorry; I just don’t have time for this right now,” and walk away. Sadly, he doesn’t care what your schedule is like. He’s going to interrupt it…. drrt-bourgogne.
