A Wen-Do instructor writes:
Some time after I’d started a new job, one of my new co-workers asked me what my background was. I was starting to tell her I was a women’s self de- when she cut me off and said, OMG do you teach Wen-Do? I replied YES! She told me “Wen-Do saved my life!” She had taken Wen-Do back in the mid-80′s and again in the mid-90′s. She broke the nose of an attacker – who was someone she was dating at the time – as he attempted to sexually assault her. She got away safely. I know it’s a short story, but so so powerful…and she was so thrilled to share it with me…
