Hi my name is Danica Santana, I am in the HPE120 course for the summer. The article on awareness was very good, because most people don't go with their gut. Being aware of your surrounding is always a good thing no matter where or who you are. Being aware of your suroundings could save your life.
the article to me was something that i always keep in mind when im somewhere other than my own apartment. its a good reminder that the world is unpredictable and we should always stay aware of our suroundings.
My name is Danica and the article on avoidness and evasion are very good. But most people don't try to avoid situation especially where I come from. I am from the Bronx New York and if you try to avoid or evade. to them that is a sign of weakness or that you are a punk and going to beat up all the time. But for me I was a quite person and a loner so I keep to myself all the time and just minded my own business.
Hello Kelli, I hope that all goes well for you. Awareness allows for new experiences and the chance at real adventure; while maintaining a degree of safety.

ReplyDeleteThank you for your response Danica. Awareness develops through training. Look for opportunities to train awareness inside and outside of class.

ReplyDeleteAwareness is ESSENTIAL. I love the article and think it is incredibly important to not just personal defense, but every day life.
