In Houston you can get the city police to teach a RAD (rape aggression defense) class. I found it SUPER interesting. Talked about good home and city safety tips beyond the obvious I thought of and had a self defense portion as well. They said if you have a group of people they would come for free! Might be worth seeing if chi has something like that

I’d 100% love a “be your own hero” superhero themed self defense class. Hand to hand / deflection / defensive techniques.

What seems to work is the "gun to my head", i.e. knowing I need to present my work to someone I value. Or working for someone who I feel close to. Any other strategies worked for you?
