Join us for an action-packed morning focused on self defense and personal safety! Hosted by Julie Q. Smith, a Sergeant with the Columbus Police Department, who's proudly served for nearly 20 years. She'll be joined by her husband, Terance Smith, who brings 25 years of law enforcement experience and currently serves as the Chief of Police at the Decatur Township Schools Police Department.

Throughout her career, Julie has had the privilege of serving in various roles, including as a Physical Tactics Instructor. She quickly discovered that her true passion lies in teaching and empowering women.

This 3-hour session is designed to equip you with valuable tools for your safety. We’ll begin with an hour dedicated to awareness and avoidance strategies, followed by two hours of hands-on physical tactics. While we hope you never have to use these skills, we want you to feel confident and prepared. The atmosphere will be supportive and fun, so don’t worry about feeling intimidated—this is all about learning, practicing, and building your personal confidence!
