#1000DaysEmpowering
Day #906 of 1,000

Next on our list of celebrations is IMPACT Personal Safety. They have been fortunate enough for the opportunity to offer both virtual and in-person classes and work within schools to teach IMPACT to high school students.

This month, in celebration of Founder's Day (Happy Birthday season, Lisa!) they're offering discounts for upcoming classes to push Lisa's fighting spirit and teaching to more people.

"I don't fight any more, I haven't for years. This is a huge loss in my life. I loved fighting with a passion I had never felt before. I still feel it when students are fighting and I'm coaching, but it is not the same…it is a huge loss in my life.

We're offering a discount on classes so people can come and kick some ass for me. I'll come to the graduation and cheer them on! The discount is for the February and March classes. Please pass this on to as many people as possible to make February an ass-kicking month!" - Lisa Gaeta

Happy Founder's Day to IMPACT Personal Safety, Happy Birthday to Lisa Gaeta. What a reason to celebrate!

✨The second day of the All-Genders Training is over! Today the participants had the opportunity to learn more about empowerment self-defense.

👉They were introduced to the 5 principles of ESD: Think, Yell, Run, Fight, Tell. Then, they attended their first IMPACT class, learning some physical self-defense techniques.

This training is part of the project "E forte si grua", organized in the framework of the “Gender Sensitive post-earthquake recovery and reconstruction” project, implemented by UN Women - UN Women Albania, and supported financially by the Government of Sweden – @embassyofswedenintirana through the UN Albania SDG Acceleration Fund.

👣DAY 3 - today is the last day of the 3 days complementary training organized by ESD Global Self-Defense and Aikido Albania / ESD Albania. Our graduates will be trained by IMPACT instructors.

👉What is IMPACT?

IMPACT is a technique that, like our ESD workshops, seeks to end the circle of violence by different groups at risk through simple and effective techniques that anyone regardless of age, physical condition, race, ethnicity or social class can do.
🌟 However (and here is the magic) they deal with SUITs, which are people who put on a special, specific suit, which allows whoever uses it to receive strong blows and on sensitive parts without suffering damage.
💪Through IMPACT, ESD graduates can really test their strength!

📌The training is organized in the framework of the “Gender Sensitive post-earthquake recovery and reconstruction” project, implemented by UN Women and supported financially by the Government of Sweden – @swedeninalbania through the UN Albania SDG Acceleration Fund.

General information

IMPACT has its origins in the 1970s, when a female black belt was assaulted and r***d by two men. This prompted a group of martial artists to study the different ways in which women and men are assaulted and to seek out the most effective means of real-life defense.

Their research and consultations with survivors of assault, convicted assailants, law enforcement personnel, engineers, psychologists and trauma counselors form the basis for IMPACT’s training.
