Girl Power!

I taught a self defense class to a group of jr. high school age Girl Scouts tonight. They started out pretty hyper but really got into it. I loved seeing them settle down, soak in the information, co-operate in doing the drills - even the difficult ones, and start to learn what it feels like to be assertive and, when needed, aggressive.

I like knowing that they are now walking in this world in a more aware, safe and empowered way.
