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!!!

Just sort of off the cuff, Maggie, I got to thinking today about how doctors and inventors also do things to benefit the public, but they don't give their services or ideas away for free. For what you and your wonderful Dallas have done, you deserve to be multi-millionaires. JYF is a priceless gift for all of mankind! For it, I'm truly sorry that the proper gratitude it deserves can only be expressed in the old cliché that no words in the English language are sufficient enough; no word, no phrase. To me, this is one of less than maybe a handful of ideas since time immemorial that will prove to have such a thorough, beneficial impact on mankind.
I work at a fortune 500 company and am trying to get the Just Yell Fire site information out to all the people in our company so that any of them with preteen or teen girls in their family can get a copy of this movie if they believe its appropriate. Living in the Miami/Fort Lauderdale area of Florida it is common to hear about an abduction and occasionally a girl lucky enough to get away. I used to take Judo as a kid and took a bit of Wing Chung Kung Fu. I had heard of Escrima, Jeet Kune Do, Tae Kwon Do, Kempo Karate, and Savate as a Bruce Lee movie fan but I never heard of Filipino street fighting which from this video appears to be the best self defense martial art out there. Congrats to Dallas, I am surprised that teens would do this and not some Big Child Advocacy Group. Thank God they did and are giving it to young girls so they can get away from any sicko out there.
I truly believe your program is a Godsend...this world we live in is a wonderful and beautiful place, but there are "MONSTERS" out there. You are educating parents and children, not just girls but the boy's as well, on how to be prepared to deal with them. Thank you and God Bless.
I did a self defense speech two weeks ago. Another student came to me and told me she had got the Just Yell Fire DVD. A few of her daughter's friends were approached a week ago, they were lucky enough to get away. Now her daughter is taking the DVD to school for her class to watch. I'm again SO happy that you have made this movie, and I'm glad that there are girls learning to defend themselves. THANK YOU!!!
I was wanting to know if Dallas could hold a seminar in Clovis New Mexico for my church. I think that the girls will really enjoy it and it will help them. I heard Dallas speak when she came to Clovis at the Clovis Community College and after she spoke and I learned all the techniques, a problem had occured where I had to use one of them. She helped me so much and I really want her to help the girls at my church too.
How proud you must be of your daughter and her friend for their efforts at creating such a fantastic film. A friend loaned me the DVD and I watched it with my 14 year old daughter last night. VERY POWERFUL!!! My daughter was on the verge of tears during the date rape scene, as my niece, her cousin, was in a similar situation and was unfortunately not prepared.
I would love to have a copy to share with my daughters campfire troop and would also like to review it over and over so that both my daughters are prepared in such an attack situation.
Thank you again for making the film available to everyone. It is invaluable information for our daughters!
With Appreciation
I just watched the 'Montel Williams Show' and saw your segment. I was very impressed with the young girls and their inspirational story. I have a young daughter who we talk to on a regular basis about what to do in an emergency situation, along with weekly classes of karate. Unfortunately for her father and I we may have more reason to be overly protective of our kids...almost eight years ago my husband's sister was kidnapped and later found murdered, the killer still remains unknown. I feel that this DVD could bring us comfort in knowing that if faced with a dangerous situation our children would have a better advantage of getting away safely!
Thanks for your story and God bless you for sharing this with the nation!
I saw you on the Montel Williams show the other day. Wow, what a blessing you two are. I sure wish that I could have seen something like that when I was in my early teens. I have a 12 year old daughter and a 14 year old son. Thank you so much for your time and ambition. I am sure there will be many lives saved through watching this. Thank you!!!
I know how important it is for young women and teens to know how to protect themselves. When my granddaugter was 13 she was sexually molested by 3 young boys. After 3 years of drug abuse and alcohol abuse she finally regained her confidence and is now a well adjusted beautiful 18 year old young woman.
