1 out of 6 women will report being assualted, sexually or otherwise, at least once in their life time. With staggering numbers like that, the time for games and shadow boxing to high energy music is over.
I also teach practical tips for everyday living. Tips that keep us aware of our surroundings and more importantly teach us how to respond to those situations.
Here are some practical tips that can keep you a little safer out there.
1. When you are in a large
crowd, strap your purse across your body instead of slinging it on one arm… it
is much harder to grab.
2. Put your money and
valuables in your bra or inside of a secret pocket. #OldSchool
3. Never sit in your car
and read your mail or check social media without first locking your doors and rolling up your
windows.
4. Don’t be afraid of offending
people by changing to the other side of the street, walking the other way, or
locking your door.
5. Wear comfortable clothes
when you are in a high crime area. Defending yourself and running away in certain outfits is impractical.
6.
Trust your intuition; it
is right 70% of the time.
7. Join a martial arts
class. You will be more confident and learn some great moves that could save
your life.
