Winn-Dixie and Jax sheriff present self-defense seminars
Winn-Dixie and the Jacksonville Sheriff’s Office are holding “Common Sense Self Defense” seminars around The River City during the next four months. The seminars are free and will be held in a number of locations during weekday evenings or Saturday mornings at 27 local WD stores.
The seminars are aimed at educating a person on self-defense when escaping a threatening situation is not possible. Each seminar lasts 60 minutes. You must reserve a spot in order to participate.
Full details can be found at the Sheriff’s Office site on the Web. Check out the brochure explaining details. The brochure also offers common sense tips for personal safety. There’s a schedule online as well so you can select a convenient time and location.
I plan to go with my daughter and I’ll report on my experience here at our Jacksonville, FL site. It doesn’t hurt to be prepared even if you feel safe most of the time as I do.
