Escaping Violent Encounters (EVE) for Women

While most attacks are not life-threatening, the risk of serious injury is evident and unpredictable. The EVE-4-Women™ course gives women the effective tools needed to recognize a developing threat of assault, deflect it if possible, escape if practical, and to defend if necessary. While other “feel-good" classes may be appealing, these systems fail conclusively in the real-world. The inevitable failure of the non-realistic training system puts lives and emotional well-being in danger. This non-violent system of prevention and avoidance takes a realistic approach to the subject. For more information about this course, please visit the EVE4EMS website. 8 hours. $52 (Because this course is self-supporting, no tuition waivers or exemptions are allowed.)
