WELCOME TO NEVER A VICTIM (NAV), a nonprofit organization dedicated to protecting at risk women and children through education and self-defense training.
NAV achieves its mission through workshops, seminars, and online DVD sales. Workshops and seminars are held either onsite at a sponsor's location or at Reid's Martial Arts in Carmichael, California. Typical workshops or seminars last 2.5-hours. The educational component of these events include a lecture on the 5-A’s (Awareness, Alertness, Attitude, Avoidance, Action). We discuss the government statistics on violence, situational analysis, the proper attitude, scenarios to avoid, and how to fight back. All done to give you the knowledge, skills, and abilities to keep from becoming a victim.
Lastly and just as important, we teach the NAV Self-defense System, created by Grandmaster Linda Reid. This system consists of 15 everyday movements converted into self-defense that can be applied aggressively, if necessary. By utilizing everyday movements, this system is easy to learn and simple to apply. Anybody can learn this system during the training portion of the workshop/seminar. Be assured that this system works, and when used properly is effective in dissuading and preventing the perpetrator from getting what they want.
