Just Yell Fire Class Defense Class

The Just Yell Fire™ program (www.justyellfire.org) teaches teen girls and young women how to fight back against predators and sexual assault. This award winning program was conceived by teenager and safety activist Dallas Jessup. Revved Up Kids Co-Founder Allison Neal is one of two trainers in Georgia certified to teach this program. Revved Up Kids offers Just Yell Fire™ training as a single session (approximately 2 1/2 hours in length) or as a "lunch and learn" session for schools. The class can be taught to groups ranging in size from 12 - 75. The training includes a video based component, an open discussion of dangers faced by teen girls and how to avoid them, and simple self-defense techniques that allow teen girls to injure and escape an attacker. Just Yell Fire™ can be taught in a private home if space permits.
