[...] Encouraging comments on Open Forum articles is a great way to build community through your website. Recently, a Crime Stoppers affiliate in Central Ohio offered a free self defense course for women during the time a serial rapist was on the loose. Not only did the women register for the class on the site, but over 80 women returned to the site afterwards to leave comments about how empowered they felt after having taken the class. See for yourself! [...]

Thank you, Thank you, Thank you! I attended the February 24th class and it was absolutely great! The instructors at Core Tactix were very knowledgeable and made everyone feel comfortable. I come from a family of police offers and I’ve always been told you can never be too cautious. The instrutors made sure you knew what you were doing and how to do it. I felt more confident leaving than when I walked in. I am more knowledgeable about my surroundings and preventative techniques to me and my family safe. I highly recommend all the women of Central Ohio to take this FREE course!!

Thank you so much Core Tactix & Crime Stoppers for this wonderful and informative course. You all will never know how many lives you are saving.

I attended the January 20th self defense course and was absolutely impressed with the knowledge and skills that I obtained. My brother is a police officer, so he encouraged me to take this training, and I am certainly glad that I did (despite being skeptical). The instructors made certain that everyone in the training understood the details of each move and how to utilize it appropriately and effectively. I went home feeling incredibly energized and empowered. I honestly hadn’t felt that good in awhile. I tried out the moves on my boyfriend, and he was even a little indimated. He had never heard me yell that loudly (which means that the instructors at Core Tactix did their job well).

Thank you so much Core Tactix & Crime Stoppers for providing this course to greatly benefit the women of Central Ohio! We needed this knowledget to better protect ourselves.

I attended the free Women’s self defense course on Tuesday, Feb 10 and it was a great course. It gave me confidence to be able to walk to my car in a dark parking lot again (although I try not to park in dark places as a general rule). The instructors were fantastic, and motivated to help the class attendees learn how to be safe. We were all encouraged to practice, practice, practice until we were comfortable with the moves and techniques. I would recommend this course to all women.

I attended the Womens Self Defense course Tuesday February 10. It is an excellent course which I would recommend for any woman, young or old. The instructors stress how important it is to be both verbally and mentally aggressive, in addition to the physical agression you learn. There are plenty of instructors who walk around to provide individualized attention to make sure you are learning and practicing correctly. This course is so important for all women, no matter what your skill level is. Special thanks to all the sponsors who made this invaluable course possible.

I attended the seminar on Sunday 2/1/09. I found it very informative, physical and feel that I really learned alot. This was so much more than I expected. I sincerely encourage women to take this class. All women should know how to defend themselves. The instructers were excellent and took the time to make sure you understood each move. I look forward to taking the next level.

THANK YOU soooo much for offering this gift to the women of Central Ohio Coretactix and CrimeStoppers. I attended (hesitatingly, I admit) this past weekend and the seminar was incredible – so informative, so fun and so empowering. I highly encourage any person reading this to sign up as soon as possible (and spread the word!!)

I attended one of the free CoreTactics self defense classes and feel tremendously empowered after the experience. I highly encourage all women to take advantage of this opportunity to learn what you can take to protect yourself. I think the best part of the training was the hands-on exercises where you could learn many different ways to defend yourself in a number of scenarios. Thanks so much to CoreTactics and to all of the sponsors for your generosity to make this excellent training available to women for free. Many more women are now better equipped to prevent possible crimes and defend themselves in the event of an attack. I plan to sign up for additional courses to learn even more!
