SAFE International Self Defense Announces launch of SAFE International Certified Partner, Self-Defense Manitoba

SAFE International is a leading provider of self defense training in North America. SAFE International is pleased to announce the launch of SAFE International Certified Partner, Self-Defense Manitoba, who will provide a focused marketing campaign to provide self defense to women, corporations and high school students.

Winnipeg, MB, August 27, 2013 (Straight Line PR) — SAFE International™ is a leading provider of self defense training in North America. It currently operates throughout Canada and has expanded to include SAFE International Certified Partner, Self-Defense Manitoba, with a focused marketing campaign to provide Winnipeg self defense to women, men, corporations and high schools. SAFE International has delivered training to over one hundred thousand (175,000) people since 1994. Self-Defense Manitoba is owned and managed by Chris Friesen, Managing Principal, who is a professional teaching Director and self-defense instructor.

Mr. Friesen began Self-Defense Manitoba in the Spring of 2013 and has become the first SAFE International™ Certified Partner in Canada. He saw there was a lack of practical and effective self defense instruction for people in the province of Manitoba. The SAFE International high school courses have become known for their instruction on how to deal with conflict before it starts rather than just deal with the physical side of self defense. While self protection is a serious topic, the SAFE instructors have managed to develop a course that integrates humour while still getting a serious message across to students/clients. Chris Friesen will be teaching specially tailored Winnipeg Corporate self defense courses in the corporate environment, particularly to companies/organizations that are in higher risk professions including health care, real estate, sales people, etc. Self protection is a not only a necessity, but is also a form of insurance that will make your business more profitable and your employees more confident and secure. Workplace violence is a serious issue and SAFE has the ability to teach workplace staff how to deal with all aspects of confrontation including the Awareness/Avoidance stages along with Verbal Diffusing skills and physical self defense.

SAFE International Certified Partners also offer specialized Women’s Self Defense Winnipeg courses to women’s groups, including their Women’s Self Defense Parties. Twenty five percent of women will be assaulted during their lifetime. This is an alarming fact especially since over forty seven percent of crime is unreported. Women will know their attacker fifty seven percent of the time according to studies. Women lead busy lives and need easy to remember tactics that work in real-life situations. They also need training that fits into their busy schedules. SAFE International Certified Partner instructors understand the challenges that women face and offer classes, group seminars and private lessons to fit into anyone’s schedule.

SAFE International has become North America’s most popular high school course for both boys and girls due to the fact that they don’t teach martial arts, but rather a practical approach to personal safety with an emphasis on recognizing and avoiding potentially dangerous situations. All instructors are certified through SAFE International™ and have a unique ability to reach the students in an effective and memorable manner. SAFE International has traditionally focused on self defense instruction for high school students. It offers 1, 3, 4 or 5 hour courses which can be taught over consecutive days or all in one day depending upon the school/ organization’s needs. They offer High School self defense customized to the class needs and expectations. Each session includes discussion, role playing and a practical physical component ending with their famous simulated attacks in which the students get the opportunity to practice their newly learned skills on a padded instructor. These are real-world tactics that can be used by anyone against violent and stressful attacks.

OK1984 + Kreayshawn Make a Quietly Loud Statement

What happens when you merge a team of hip Californian designers with one of hip-hop’s most buzz-worthy artists?

Los Angeles, CA, August 26, 2013 – What happens when you merge a team of hip Californian designers with one of hip-hop’s most buzz-worthy artists? You get a distinct capsule collection of understated yet thought provoking jewelry that says just enough. “I designed this for the girls who express more with less. There’s no need to do the talking when your jewelry can do it for you,” explains renowned artist Kreayshawn.

Whatever you’ve heard about the Bay Area musician and director, Kreayshawn is nothing if not scrappy. Born in September 1989 in San Francisco, as Natassia Zolot, to a teenage single mother, the pocket-sized artist relied on her wits to navigate the roughest sections of the city. By the age of 16, she found herself in a pivotal moment that would forever change her life and prompt her to become the pioneer she is today, turning hardship into empowerment and fueling her future through drive and creativity.

With a record deal from Columbia Records and a true cult following, it is clear to see why OK1984 jumped at the opportunity to team up with this gorgeous powerhouse. Known for her seemingly eclectic and truly unique personal style, Kreayshawn sets out to discover new and original influences that will make her music stand out from the rest. She seeks to inspire and be inspired, and, much like OK1984’s jewelry, she is fresh, edgy and undeniably talented. Incorporating each independent characteristic into one cohesive line, OK1984 and Kreayshawn have created a range of pieces that will unleash the voice inside you.

Launching August 26, 2013, the collaboration capsule, which will range from starry-eyed smiley face pendants to spirited alien head rings, will retail for $21 – $30, exclusively at OK1984.com.
