Testimonials - What the Girls Have to Say

Now that I am taking Pinkarate, I feel more confident, safe, and am better able to protect myself...I feel
great!!"
                                                    Gabrielle, age 11

"I feel safer and more secure, so that if a guy ever tried to pull me into his car, or hurt me, I would know
what to do."
                                                     Victoria, age 8

"I feel good when I learn something new in every class at Pinkarate.  It makes me feel proud of myself
and it makes me feel more confident."
                                        Thank You Miss Liz!
                                                       Sophia, age 9

"Pinkarate has helped me when I get off the bus from school and no one is there to meet me, because
my mom is late.  I feel more safe because I know what to do if someone comes up to me and tries to
grab me or even just talks to me."
                                                     Hannah, age 11
                                                    
"I feel more secure that I know self defense.  If someone is picking on me, I know I can stand up for
myself.  If there's a stranger, I know what to do because I take Pinkarate and I feel strong and not
wimpy."  
                                                       
                                                      Jessica, age 7

"I feel that I am more confident about protecting myself.  Pinkarate is a great place to learn self-
defense.  We have a lot of drills to help us learn.  I can go non-stop for one minute, kicking and
punching, and doing whatever I can!"
                                                        
                                                          Emma, age 10
"I feel great about taking Pinkarate because I feel more confident about everything.  Like when I went
to my friend's birthday party and there was a boxing gym, and I felt confident enough to go in there
and punch someone!  Before, I was scared to do it!"
                                                              Nicole, age 10

"I could defend myself if I had to because I take Pinkarate.  If I didn't, I wouldn't be able to.  Thank you
Miss Liz for giving me your knowledge to help me learn.  Pinkarate makes me feel more confident with
my punches and kicks."
