The sessions were wonderful and very informative. I have a much better knowledge of how to approach/handle public situations going forward due to these trainings, and will definitely keep the tips in my back pocket wherever I go!

Everyone loved the class and being able to adjust the role-playing portion to specific instances people have experienced was great!
From what I have heard thus far, people really got a lot out of the sessions. Please thank everyone involved!

Nicole, Dani Joy, and Matthew taught our team about the importance of tuning in to our own body language, and paying attention to how we instinctively react to people without the filter of our own self-doubt. We learned to verbally deescalate a variety of situations while always physically asserting our strength and surety through distance and stance. During our work out in the field we come in contact with a lot of people, and this program helped us become more aware and more confident in potentially dangerous situations. They gave us a relaxed, comfortable environment to learn these new skills, and flawlessly adapted the course to the Zoom format.

As someone who practices personal awareness, I was impressed with the information Nicole shared with us. Having my own experience with needing to defend myself from an attacker, I now know other ways I can keep physical contact at a minimum and use my voice to deter versus being prepared to fight. I really appreciate what I learned and am interested in seeking more from IMPACT!

We love IMPACT’s mission and highly recommend their training for all workplaces! IMPACT gave us practical ways to manage personal safety with simple techniques, and we left the training feeling very EMPOWERED and more confident. The instructor Nicole was knowledgeable, engaging, and passionate about safety. We will definitely plan to have IMPACT return for more extensive personal safety/self-defense training!

My daughter just got home from her second class. She is so animated and excited about everything she is learning. She cannot stop talking about it and demonstrating for me!!! I'm so grateful to Impact because my daughter is learning and practicing what to do during encounters with people she does not know (or even ones that she does know). She is learning how to assess the situation, use appropriate language (from diffusing to getting outside attention/help), and how to physically defend herself. Please pass this message on to whomever else needs to get this feedback. From a mom of a young teenage daughter...THANK YOU!!!

I just want to say thank you for the training sessions we had these past few days. They were helpful and informative and I received some great feedback from my colleagues.
The work that Impact & Girls Fight Back are doing is really admirable and very much appreciated especially during these trying times.
Thanks again!

We were beyond delighted with our IMPACT class. Words like “life changing,” “freedom,” “powerful,” and on-and-on, goodness. Nicole, Don, and Mike are brilliant teachers (and this from a room of educators and therapists) and the design of the class and the warmth and humanity of the teachers created the conditions for an extremely powerful and life-altering time for all of us. We couldn’t be more grateful. It was fantastic. Many women left wanting to keep training and to bring your team to their cities and schools. Thank you so very much.

The class went very well. The instructors, Nicole and Matt, were professional, compassionate, supportive, and very informative. They delivered the information and training in a clear and easy to understand way. I thought they talked about some scary stuff without being frightening. The girls felt the intensity but also felt supported, encouraged, and empowered.
Overall, I would rate the instructors and the experience of working with IMPACT very highly. I know that at least one of the girls told her mother she thought it was awesome and wanted to take additional classes.
Thanks for offering this important service.

I think it went really well, but it is very hard to extract information from my children. All I can say is that my 16 year-old daughter, who was mad at me for making her participate, said that "it was actually kind of fun," which is the highest praise possible.

Thanks for following up! We had a great time on Saturday with your staff and our students. Our students who participated had an incredible experience and have had nothing but great things to say! They left the workshop with new found confidence and inner strength they didn’t know they had. Thank you again for all of your help and I look forward to working with your company again!

It was GREAT! The instructors were amazing and the girls had fun and learned a lot. They all said the 3 hours went by fast. I am hoping to have you do a similar class for my 15 year old and some friends, maybe over the summer. Thank you for a great event!
