Hello, my name is KG. I’m the creator of Defend Your Space.
For the better part of the past 3 decades I have practiced and taught martial arts. As an instructor, my focus has been the education of women and children. Self defense isn’t about fighting, it’s just the opposite. It’s about being situationally aware, alert to possible dangers, and taking precautionary measures to avoid conflict and harm.
Let me get a little real with you….
This Goes Out To The Ones I Love
My wife is my best friend, my soul mate, my everything. We’ve been married for over 22 years. Our two daughters, ages 17 and 13, are my joy, my light, and my reason for working hard every day. The thought of any harm coming to these very important women makes me sick to my stomach. I’m sure you also feel that way about the people you care about. Guess what, there are also people that care about you the same way! Even though we may not know each other yet, I do care about your safety and well-being.
I Don’t Want To Frighten You But….
I’m not one that likes to focus on negativity. I believe you project your own future by the thoughts you carry in your heart and mind. However, there are harsh realities in this world that are unavoidable. According to statistics on rainn.org, every 68 seconds a sexual assault occurs in America. The majority of the victims are women and children. This is not acceptable! Nobody should have to live in constant fear, especially not women and children.
Their stories are not mine to tell, but I will share that there are people close to me that have been victims of violence, abuse, and sexual assault. My heart breaks every time I see these precious women relive their experience in conversations or because of social triggers. All my hard work will be worth it If I can help even just one person to avoid such a traumatic experience.
Help Me Help You Help Yourself
My goal, as a content creator, is education. I don’t know everything. I’ll be educating myself while sharing what I learn with you. My vow to you is to seek information from any and all valid resources, to provide you with as much information as possible.
I’m not just some man trying to mansplain self defense to women. What I am is a husband and father, a feminist, and someone that believes all lives are valuable and should be protected. I focus on helping women and children, not because they are weaker, but because they are targeted more often. This site is for anyone interested in learning, acquiring skills, tools, and resources to defend ones self and your loved ones. I welcome any questions, comments or feedback on how I can help you on this journey.
Be safe, be happy, and be well.
