Hi Dallas,
First of all my daughter and I love Just Yell Fire!
I run my own Personal Self Defense program, It's a family run side business, nothing big.
I have been involved in the Martial Arts since 1990, I train with people of all ages and I saw your Just Yell Fire dvd a few years ago and I have had my daughter who is now a teenager OMG! watch with me and her friends. Usually when they sleep over this is how I introduce the dvd, sometimes my daughter gives me the look like "dad really? Now."…lol but I get them to watch and I really think this is a Great tool for all girls to have! To give them a sense of knowing they can fight back! To know how to defend themselves with basic life saving Techniques. I will be posting your link to my NPSDT page on Facebook.
Thank you for this DVD! And for having it out there for anyone to see.
Once again.
Thanks

I saw this video advertised in the In Touch magazine. What a wonderful idea.
I work in a junior high school with behaviour disorder kids, needless to say these girls don't live in the safest neighbourhoods. Although abductions happen everywhere, I worry that these girls I work with are at an increased risk of abduction, assault, etc.
Kudos to the ladies who thought of this, they are remarkable.
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!
Please forward this to all corporate officers and board members:
As a mother of two young girls, I thank you from the bottom of my heart for your support of such a worthy endeavor.
As a citizen of the United States of America and the great State of Oregon, your corporate sponsorship is a beacon and model to all other corporations that giving of corporate funds to the community is not only a duty of the corporate sector, but truly the backbone of what makes America such a great and noble country.
Directly due to your actions, not one, but many and even, perhaps, thousands of girls will be empowered by, "Just yell Fire!" and their lives spared from pain and even death.
As leaders of this corporation, you should be proud of your company, just as a parent is proud of a child.
Thank you for fulfilling the dreams of these young women to make a difference and save people all over the world from these horrible crimes.
As a father of three females I applaud you and your work. I am a sex-ed teacher in the metro Atlanta, Georgia area and we cover date rape in our middle school curricula. I hope that you continue to advocate for young females and empower them to live a more fear free life.
God bless you and your service, and please tell all those associated with “Just Yell Fire” well done and blessings as well
I think your video is one of the best I have ever seen! I watched you on the Montel Williams show just a while ago and had to look it up.
I am a single mom of three, I homeschool my own children and substitute teach in the public school. Furthermore, I am the President of our homeschool association.
Thank you!
Just dropped in to salute your work. I'm with you. I'm doing my second year under graduate in Chennai, TN, India. If there s something I can do for this cause, I m ready to. Salute once again n keep going. My wishes to you.
First, let me congratulate the endeavors of these teenagers in doing such a great service to mankind. What a creative way of getting the message out! I am doing a basic life-skills class and want to incorporate this DVD in one of our lessons. Thank you for making a difference.
We want to thank you both so much for the JYF Program on May 7th in Albion. The students loved being a part of the program and learning how to protect themselves. I heard back from many of the 5th grade girls about watching the movie with their parents and that they feel better knowing how to stay safe. I also heard back from a few parents thanking us for offering a program like this to our students. Our staff is looking forward to being trained in August with you and we hope that all of our girls from 5-12 grade will be offered self-defense and we can generate more discussion about this important topic. Thank you for also meeting with the girls for lunch, signing books and being so understanding.
I watched the Montel Williams show and I was impressed that such young girls have stepped up to help others. I have a daughter, and I think that this movie would benefit her, and give my husband and I a little peace, knowing that she has the information needed to ward off a possible attack.
