Eastside's Premier Martial Arts Academy Hosting Free Women's self Defense Workshop!

FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
(Free-Press-Release.com) October 7, 2009 -- Do you have any personal safety concerns or concerned for the safety of someone you know or care about? What is personal safety? What is your personal protection plan? The United Source Academy of Martial Arts is here to offer assistance with self empowerment, and the basic development of improved safety awareness and practical self defense ability.

The United Source's Head Instructor Tirrell Kamara states: "personal protection and safety awareness are the personal responsibilities of each and every citizen, particularly because far too often women, children and senior citizens unfortunately find themselves victims of violence and crime." The United Source demonstrates an ongoing interest in supporting the empowerment of our communities through offering self defense workshops, martial arts classes, and safety awareness education on a regular basis. He further states: "too often people operate under the assumption their safety is the sole responsibility of local law enforcement. This couldn't be further from the truth. Every citizen has the responsibility to partner with their families, neighborhoods, communities and local law enforcement to contribute towards creating safer communities!"

United Source self defense workshops have received great support and praise from participants like First Grade teacher, Megan L: "I learned how to be more proactive with my safety. The instructor was wonderful, very knowledgeable and fun to work with. I went with a group of girlfriends and we had a great time together. We all left feeling more aware and physically empowered." In times of economic challenge and various concerns impacting our daily lives, the necessity of engaging oneself in activities and education that contributes to a greater sense of emotional, mental and physical safety should be of higher importance. Here are a few basic safety tips to consider: 1. Self defence begins with personal and environmental awareness. 2. Listen to and trust your instincts (gut, feelings, intuition). 3. Communicate your plans, whereabouts, location and contact information to family members and friends routinely.
