Self-Defense

Someone has been attacking women in my neighborhood. 10 women have been assaulted in the past seven months, and the police have yet to arrest a suspect. Tammyli Gonzalez of CrossFit 718 decided to take action, and hosts a class taught by Ariel Yarden at her gym. In these pictures, the pair demonstrate ways to escape an attacker.

      All the self-defense stuff made me look behind me a lot more and shoot dirty looks at perfectly innocent people… and anybody who tries to grab Tammyli is probably going to get deadlifted and thrown right in the trash.
