I am the mother of 2 (1 girl, 1 boy) and I just saw the Montel Williams show & learned about your movie. I was moved to tears. You should be very proud of yourselves! You are great examples of the kind of young people we need in the world today, if there were more people like you the world would be a better place and your movie might not be so necessary, but unfortunately it is. You are an inspiration to people of all ages and are providing a life saving service. God Bless You!!!

My name is Ellie and I'm fifteen years old. Today I was reading a Tae Kwon Do magazine and ran across Just Yell Fire. So I went to your website and watched the movie. I think what you guys are doing is awesome and that girls need to know that its ok to fight back and don't be afraid if someone threatens you. I'm just a yellow belt in TKD right now. But I've already learned some important self defense and how to help others in a harmful situation. The video was great and I really appretiated that you guys showed different ways to defend yourself, in different situations. My mom and Dad have always taught me to walk with confidence and to alway pay attention to that gut feeling. I can usually tell when something doesn't feel right and I always try to avoid vulnerable situations. I think that the message you guys are trying to spead is extremely important and that every girl should see this video. Thank you so much.
I have a 14 yr-old daughter, I read about this website & dvd in a magazine. I must commend you. When I was in high school, we didn't really call it "date rape". I was pressured into sex, I got pregnant, he then proceeded to tell everyone in the high school I was a big whore (sorry for the language). I was so humiliated I dropped out of school and moved out of town. It took years for me to come to terms with it. I want to prevent this from happening to my daughter. Thank You
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.
Thank you again for making the film available to everyone. It is invaluable information for our daughters!
You are to be commended for your efforts in helping women and young girls to be better prepared when faced with the potential of being a victim of a violent attack! As a police officer of 34 years and a martial artist since 1962, I will encourage all of my students that I train to watch your DVD. Thank you.
I am a Disabled Veteran and a grandfather of Sixteen. I would have been the proud grandfather of another little one, but I guess GOD wanted him to be in Heaven with HIM. I will see him later and what a joy that will be. I have eight granddaughters and eight grandsons. I would not take a million dollars for any of them. Maybe two million would do it. No just kidding. They all are the light in my life. One grandson is old enough and has finished Navy training and is a Corpman with the Marines and will be going to Iraq or Afghanistan in January or February. Please remember him in your prayers. His name is Frankie.
I want to thank you all for making this film. It is something that should have been made a long time ago. I wonder just how many young lives would have been different if this film had been made sooner. I pray all who watch this, will never experience anything bad and if in a situation will know what to do because of this film. May GOD bless and reward everyone who was a part of this film.

Greetings. I am the manager of the central parole office in Multnomah County, and your presentation has just been brought to my attention. I also manage a team of sex offender officers, and wanted to say Im most impressed with this production. You are certainly to be congratulated. I would like to help spread this important information.
The DVD came today. I watched it with my daughter. Very well done, very informative. It's a relief to know that even a non-athlete can do something to protect herself. Thank you so much!
I just finished watching "Just Yell Fire". It was a very powerful statement for the rights of young women to be safe! Thank you.

My daughter (a St. Mary's student) was really impacted by this project and the powerful information within.
