Do you ever wonder why men don’t take self defense classes? Could it be because as men we have egos? Maybe. Is it because as men we have always been made to believe that we are the protectors and “we can handle ourselves”? That could be too. But here’s a question. How do you know you can handle yourself? How do you know you can protect yourself or your family from a dangerous predator?

Did you know that according to the Department of Justice and the United States Federal Bureau of Investigation Crime Reports men are victimized at rates 22% higher than women and men are more likely to be victimized by a stranger?

Men, it is our job, our responsibility, to be sure we can protect ourselves and our loved ones. Don’t let ego, fear, or anything else stop you from doing what needs to be done. Be sure that if the wolf comes knocking at the door you are prepared.
