Fantastic. I'm a father of a 13 year old girl and a 15 year old boy.

I've been after both to take some courses. Hopefully this video will help motivate them or at least teach them a few things that could help.

From what I've seen so far of the movie, I'm going to tie them both in a chair and make them watch it.

Thanks again...

Hi Girls,

I saw you on Montel this morning and wanted to tell you how awesome I think you are for doing an awareness video for not only teens but anyone. I am a mother of four children three boys and one girl. I would love to have a dvd to teach them how to protect themselves. I also plan to take the dvd to the local schools and see if I can get them on board with your mission to protect people from predators. Keep up the good!

Saw this video on Good Morning America, downloaded and intend on showing it my daughter asap! Also to other Girls Scouts.

Boys could benefit from it too, though this is not the intended market. Thank you for making it so believable and memorable, awesome job.

I was so impressed with the Just Yell Fire video that a few weeks ago I brought it to the attention of one of the guidance counselors at our local high school, Hinsdale Central High School, Hinsdale, Illinois. I got word from him today that he had shared the video with the school's physical education and health teachers. They thought it was great and they have decided to use it in their classes.

My wife and I saw the film clip for "Just Yell Fire" last evening on the Evening Magazine show on the local KING TV station. We have granddaughters, daughters and church young women's group [and many others] that we would like to show this information.

We have facilitated teaching our daughter, as well as ourselves, the basics of Karate during high school and she has gone on with her training during graduate school. We have always felt that investment produced so much for our peace of mind and her confidence. We always talk to young girls of the need to be aware, proactive in response and downright hostile and hurtful to allow escape. Your film gives such simple techniques, and is so very timely, and shows how straight forward and simple a response to danger can be that will allow escape.

Thank you for such a brilliant website and film. I will make the film required viewing for my teenage daughters!

I work for a domestic violence rape crisis center in Bloomsburg PA. I watched a borrowed copy of your video entitled "Just Yell Fire" and thought our agency may want to incorporate your video into our prevention education programs for girls and their parents. Thank you for an extremely powerful video. The statistics are haunting. I plan to show your website to my two 13 year old nieces and encourage them to watch your video.

The greatest defence a person has is knowledge. This project will be a great learning tool to empower our kids. We need more projects like this.

Your an amazing young lady. I applaud your efforts. I wish that when I was your age I had this type of information. My twin sister could have protected herself and never wouild have developed a drug problem. I saw you on Montel and haven't been able to get you out of my mind. Your one of the Angels God speaks of, that are put on this earth. We are truly blessed. Thank you again for trying to make this a safer place for women, we must all stick together. You have helped so many.

This is a comment sent in to our trainers Leila Rae Sommerfeld and Valerie Mainridge of Gresham, OR

Thank you again from our entire team! You and Valerie did such a fabulous job. Several of our volunteers commented at the end that your traiing was the best self-defense class they had ever taken - and several had attended classes in the past. you adapted your presentation to fit perfectly into our time constraints and skill level. You and Valerie brought such great energy and enthusiasm to our class. We especially appreciate you taking time on a Sunday. We feel empowered to continue to advocate for sexually exploited women in and around Portland.

We are so pleased to know you and your work. I hope this is only the beginning of our partnership.
