Details: In the Just Yell Fire class, participants will learn how to stay safe in a variety of situations! They will also learn about the importance of body language and how it can define you as a potential victim (or not) to a predator. Participants will learn about situational awareness and the importance of trusting one's instincts and how to effectively use their voices (we'll be making some noise!). A variety of moves and distraction techniques will be taught that will enable one to escape from an attacker and get to a point of safety. The class really is a lot of fun and a great way to make memories with others!
