Recently retired from RCMP after 15 years. Born and raised in PEI. Four sisters and one brother so I got beat up a lot growing up. My Mom is my role model and rock. I have wanted to do this course since I started at Depot and can now put my complete focus and attention in helping women feel more confident and free from worry.

IN HER OWN WORDS

⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

“If you are looking at these reviews, it means you are thinking about taking this course... so I urge you to go ahead with your instincts and book with Darren. He will provide a caring, compassionate and most importantly, a ‘safe place’ for all women to learn how to defend themselves.

Basic and easy, he offers ‘common sense’ moves that ANYONE can do to get yourselves out of potentially very dangerous situation.

I now know what to do if I am being followed, during a home invasion, or being held down to get myself out of that situation, whereas before, I had no clue what to do that would be effective or I would have done the absolute opposite of what I should have been doing to get away.

I feel empowered, confident and I now have a PLAN in my head. I know that I have to BREATHE and let the moves that Darren has taught me to guide me in bad situations.

I absolutely 100% endorse this course to all women and young ladies.”

Not me. Not today. Not ever.

They chose violence. You choose defense.

You are not responsible for protecting the feelings of someone who has made the decision to hurt you.

Protect yourself. Get away. Get home.

And never feel guilty for defending yourself.

I had the pleasure of spending time with the wonderful ladies at Community of Hope NB, providing practical self-defense and personal safety training.

Working with women who dedicate their time to helping others makes this kind of training especially meaningful.

Thank you to everyone Community of Hope NB for welcoming me, for your participation, and for the kind words. It was a pleasure working with all of you.

Is your safety net giving you false hope?

Ladies, carrying a weapon or personal safety device is one thing. But what happens when someone catches you off guard, closes the distance, and gets their hands on you before you have a chance to use it?

What do you do then?
