Grace is a sales and marketing consultant for two small radio stations in a small Pennsylvania community
and is also a FAST DEFENSE Coach and karate instructor. She took her first Fast Defense course in
December 2001 at Kriegisch Martial Arts in St. Marys, PA. Up to that time the only training she had was
Cardio Karate Kickboxing. But the Fast Defense course had a significant impact on her life. Fast Defense
gave her self confidence and a sense of accomplishment that she never felt before.The course inspired her
to try new things.
Grace has certified in Level 1 CDT basics, and Level 3 CDT gun and knife defense. She has also taken
several jujutsu seminars and has begun studying the martial arts. Through that her interest in FAST
Defense remained strong. Grace attended her first FAST Defense Extrav in 2003 and while there became
certified as a coach.
Since then, Grace has tried to ensure that each student she coaches comes away with the same confidence
and empowerment that FAST has given her.
