I am from the University and I met Tom Patire after his talk. I wanted to buy a book but he was sold out so I ordered it from Amazon. I read the book and found it to be very easy to read and understand, and found the information inside to have tremendous value.After reading the book I enrolled in Training for Life course with my sister. The course was just like the book said. It was easy to learn, very effective and best of all taught avoidance at all costs.The world is very unpredictable and safety should, but isn't always, in the forefront. I agree with many of Patire's principles but the one thing I thing we are all in agreement is "Safety in our own hands!"I encourage all to read the book and then taking the course, if you have an interest in going to the next level of personal safety.Peace!
