MIWSD - MAGDA INSTITUTE WOMEN'S SELF DEFENSE

MIWSD GREAT HIGHLIGHTS

“Honor. Protect. Serve.”
One of the many exciting benefits that pop up anytime during our MIWSD Training sessions over the years are the surprise visitations of very special guests - great Souls that have given tremendous life service, putting themselves in harms way to honor, protect & serve our communites. Here, one of G**o El’s colleagues, Ret. Police Chief, Commander of Field Operations Division, Sierra Madre, CA - Marilyn Diaz, showed her support and visited us at one of our MIWSD ‘RIP!’ Seminars. They first met at a Women’s Leadership Conferece as selected official Delegates representing the USA to China, in early 2000. Therein, G**o El presented a Multi-Disciplinary Lecture / Demo, presenting Martial Arts and Music, of which Chief Diaz attended and participated in her workshop. Their friendship, truly one of great respect.

Police Chief Diaz gave an impromptu presentation for our MIWSD, giving hard facts about real street / threat scenarios. She has the honorable distinction as one of the first female Police Chiefs in the U.S. Another exceptional worthwhile reason to be at our MIWSD, anytime! You never know … what may happen, that gives your Soul the ability to transcend … well supported by camaraderie, respect, honor & safety.
