Contrary to popular belief most assaults are not perpetrated by a stranger, but by someone the victim already knows. In 8 out of 10 assaults the victim knew their assailant beforehand. When looking at college age women (in which occurs the highest rate of sexual assault) this statistic goes up to 9 out of 10. While this is a startling statistic it makes it clear just how effective clear and firm boundary setting in everyday life can be when it comes to creating a broader experience of overall safety. https://www.wildinsideselfdefense.com/about-wild-inside daily 0.75 2026-03-26 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a5954c5f6576e3ac8812f19/9b945bf5-dee4-4cb9-bfb4-4fb3931d6549/_DSC1765.jpg Wild Inside Philosophy It is my goal and intention to hold a space of safety, dignity, and respect for everyone who comes to learn Empowerment Self-Defense from me. In my years of martial arts and teaching self-defense I have witnessed and experienced the intimidation and fear that can come with learning these skills.

Everything and nothing. It is my belief that knowing ourselves well and understanding our unique boundaries can help us establish a more safe and empowered experience as we move through day-to-day existence. Self-understanding is an integral part of self-defense and self-empowerment, and while there are many paths to self-knowledge, one that has been transformative for me has been the tool of Tarot cards. I have been practicing Tarot reading for nearly 20 years and have found it to provide a grounding and uplifting perspective which I love to share with others. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a5954c5f6576e3ac8812f19/edce8c5b-ec39-4ffd-99c2-5e801e11c4a7/TarotParty-43.jpg Personal Empowerment - Personal Readings I offer individual readings from time to time. Keep an eye on my events page and social media for the few events that pop up throughout the year. In the meantime, I encourage people to start to build their own relationship with the cards. Get your own deck and start to get curious…and have some fun!

Whether alone or with a group, Tarot reading can get into some vulnerable territory. But it is in embracing that vulnerability that world of possibility opens up. The potential for self-awareness, growth, and understanding can be powerful when shared with a group of people who want to lift you up and call you in to your best self. https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/5a5954c5f6576e3ac8812f19/75497490-66d4-499d-9814-6b214a008b74/TarotParty-13.jpg Personal Empowerment What the heck do Tarot cards have to do with self-defense?
