My daughter is heading off to college in California and I am a home health nurse. Your class has taught both of us to be very aware of our surroundings and the people in our proximity. Knowledge is power. And learning some simple self-defense tips is knowledge. Your program is invaluable to all women in this increasingly unpredictable world. Thank you so much!!

I signed up for the 4 hour Smart Girl Self Defense class through UNM Continuing Ed. It was high energy and filled with lots of different techniques for many different kinds of situations. I was surprised at the age range of girls and women. I felt included and welcome and they accommodated my arthritis issues so I could participate. I highly recommend this class as the instructors were top notch!

I️ took part of the 3 day weekend self defense seminar, which included several different aspects of self defense. They had multiple professional ranging from MMA fighters, state police officers, firefighters, etc. to give knowledge and provide personal experience in better way to protect myself. I️ had no fighting or shooting experience previous to this seminar and they do a great job of providing all the knowledge needed. All the instructors were very informative, helpful and patience. Not only was it a welcoming environment with all the participants/instructors but it was an empowering environment. I️ was provided so many useful resources and will continue to participate in activities from Smart Girl Self Defense! I️ highly recommend!

AMAZING! Felt so comfortable and at ease here and they really challenge you to practice so you can feel how it would feel it real life situations. Also at the end, you get a really cool "test" which I am still sore from two days later. Highly would recommend here if you are looking to feel a little more safe out in this world.

This is an amazing class! I would recommend every woman take this class and the monthly refreshers that are offered for free. What you learn is extremely functional, applicable, and empowering - it’s a lot of fun and a great workout too!

6 months ago, I was almost the victim of a kidnapping. If some bystanders hadn't stepped in, I would not have been able to stop it. The experience left me terrified to leave my house and afraid to interact with people around me. I was a very helpful and extroverted person before this experience and I thought that the trauma would permanently change who I fundamentally was. Less than a week after my experience, I was looking up women's self-defense classes and I just happened to pick this one. I am so glad that I did, because I truly believe that smart girl self-defense exists not for the money, but solely for the purpose of helping women learn to be safe. The first class I took was just over a week after the incident and I was in tears at the end. Now, I take advantage of the FREE refresher courses that they offer every month, and my friends and family have said that I have started to become more of myself again. I feel confident, more aware, less afraid to stand up for myself and I've been having fun doing it! I wish that I had taken this class years ago. If you have a woman or girl in your life that you love, bring them here. This is more than just learning how to break free of someone's grip, this class instills knowledge on how to avoid even getting into situations as well as what to do if you get into one. This is THE women's self-defense class.

I highly recommend the yoga class at SGSD. It's gentle and helps relieve tension in the body. Danielle has a great teaching style. She explains each movement well and offers modifications and props. I feel lighter after each class, and it helps fight the Sunday Blues.

This class was great! I’ve gone through a couple of self defense or awareness classes and these instructors were the best ones with great real world application. I encourage everyone to take this class!

This place is THE BEST! It's thoughtfully laid out and very fun. You feel stronger, smarter and more confident after the smart girl self defense class. I have taken a couple times with my daughter and it's a very warm comfortable environment with amazing staff. They truly care for what they do. It's such an informative class that could save your life. Very well rounded. One of the best experiences me and my daughter could have, thank you for this amazing class and hands on experience!

The class was a very empowering and friendly environment. It worked through basic things to defend yourself from in a pinch. Main take always is to be aware and keep distance from things that seem threatening. The class also gave woman the space to talk and feel heard which is a great thing to feel. Overall, I would take this class again and recommend it to many others!

Every women should take this class! Not only do you learn techniques but you also learn some psychology around how to protect yourself. I was surprised by how much fun we had and laughed. The couches and teachers are all so nice and make for a FUN and COMFORTABLE atmosphere. I left with a strong bond with some of the women I had just met that day and exchanged numbers to keep practicing! I felt strong and empowered when I left. After taking the class I had techniques and moves that can help protect not just me but help protect my family, friends, pets, and loved ones. I will defiantly be back and regularly taking classes! 💪💗😄

Took my girls to a #smartgirlselfdefense class at @jacksonwink_mma tonight. It was the absolute BEST experience a parent could hope for. The curriculum was Informative, Fun, Engaging. The coaches were intuitive, gentle, empathetic, challenging, exciting, and thorough. 100% worth the investment in my kids and their confidence and self preservation. There is seriously no better gym! ❤️

I have always wanted to try self-defense and kickboxing but have felt intimidated at other gyms - Smart Girl Defense provides a fun, welcoming and comfortable environment for young girls and women like me to learn self-defense techniques as well as engage in fitness and bag/mit work. Heather is the best and I highly recommend attending a class!

Loved this class! As a real estate professional, it left me feeling more empowered to evaluate overall safety situations and have a prepared response if needed. The Winklejohns, their coaches, and having Holly as our special guest made this extra special! Thank you for helping empower women in our community!

This class was the BEST thing I could do for my self . Highly recommend for ALL women to find confidence and to find your fight mode . Being trained by some of the BEST makes all the difference. They are skilled and trained to fight and now they are here to help women learn to defend themselves. This was well worth the money and time. I recommend this class to anyone who wants to learn life saving techniques to help prevent you from being a victim. Albuquerque is ranked high for Crimes against women ! So if you live here , do your self a favor and be prepared to defend your self and your children . There ARE Crazy people out here and you never know when these techniques could be the difference between life and death . These instructors make you feel comfortable and they help work you up to where you need to be. So STOP putting your safety on hold if your interested just Do it . You won’t regret it . I know I didn’t .

This is a must-do class for so many reasons, too many to name here. The skills of self-defense are introduced and taught effectively. Mindset is equally critical and is addressed throughout the program. Walked into this class interested and excited and intimidated. Walked out feeling confident and prepared. Heather and Mike feel like next-door neighbors. They present these very intense skills with humor. MMA fighters (Seth and Dwight) helped them put the skills to practice with all of us. The whole team was encouraging, gave good feedback, and challenged us in the best possible way. This was the perfect class to do with my sister and my teen and tween daughters. Highly recommend.

VERY impressed with the program and highly recommend it for all ages. Program was simple but concise in the methods taught to be proactive in personal self defense and educate the importance of basic steps you can take to protect yourself and improve your situational awareness. Loved the class, but 5 hours seemed a bit long. Would have preferred it to be split into two sessions instead to enable you to start, sleep on it and absorb it a bit, and then come back to do a quick review and finish up the course. An added bonus - free to return anytime to participate again for a refresher.

Smart Girl Self Defense is a necessity for any female out there! Informative, practical application and knowledgeable instructors. There was a wide variety of ages and abilities in the class-no need to feel like you won’t fit in. I will definitely be back for more classes! Bring a friend and go take this class!
