EMPOWER Program Encourages Woman to GIVE IT GIRL POWER!
The Edge Martial Arts offers a Women's Self Defense Program Designed
Specifically for Women, just in time for the Holiday Shopping Season.
Stillwater, MN, November 8th, 2004 - 25 women will gather on Sunday
November 14th for first half of their nine-hour Empowerment Training
that could change their lives forever.
The EMPOWER program is being initiated in response to numerous women
approaching The Edge Martial Arts seeking a program where they can
learn basic Self Defense without the time commitments and physical
requirements associated with a standard karate program. In Association
with R.A.D Systems®-Rape Aggression Defense-the goal of this
nine-hour program is empowering women to feel that they can do something
to save their own life in an abduction situation.
The Holiday Shopping season has prompted The Edge to push this program
ahead in anticipation of the increase in women who will be traveling
alone and in areas that she would not normally be in while shopping
this holiday season. Participants do not need to by physically fit
or have any prior training to benefit from EMPOWER. Basic techniques
and reminders about everyday safe living are the basis of the program,
teaching women that they can do something when they might otherwise
feel powerless. EMPOWER is a lifestyle change and continued practice
is necessary for muscle and mind set memory-- All participants who
complete the program will receive a Lifetime Return Certificate
entitling them to attend any R.A.D Systems® Program anywhere
in the country it is offered for Free.
As able citizens, we need to help stop the cycle of abduction and
abuse on women. EMPOWER is a first step, encouraging women to fight
back and know that they are not helpless in a victim situation.
Girls entering dating age are also encouraged to attend, helping
to prepare them for new sexual abduction situations that they might
find themselves victim of.
The EMPOWER program will be an ongoing addition to The Edge's line-up
of existing karate and group fitness classes. Day and weekend class
schedules can be found on our website at www.TheEdgeMartialArts.com/RAD.
