SUMMARY:Town to Trails: From Fear to Fearless
DESCRIPTION:A Practical Personal Safety Workshop For Everyday Life & The Outdoors\nMay 16 2026 | Limited to 16 seats\nMore than 70% women and nonbinary individuals assigned female at birth alter or avoid outdoor activities or exercise routines due to safety concerns. \nMore than 90% of female runners report safety concerns. \nLess than 50% of Black women report feeling safe walking alone at night in their own residential areas. \nIf feeling unsafe has ever kept you from living the life you’ve dreamed of\, we have a solution! Town to Trails: From Fear to Fearless!  \nYou were made to move freely. But when was the last time you hesitated to go on a solo outdoor activity? Hesitated to walk to your car at night? Hesitated to let your daughter explore the world because it feels too heavy? \nIf the thought of “what if” is shrinking your world\, we’re here to blow it wide open. \nIt’s time to stop looking over your shoulder and start owning your space. You deserve to move through your personal\, professional\, and outdoor lives with absolute certainty. Town to Trails isn’t just a workshop; it is your roadmap to unleashing your curiosity and freedom. \n\n🦋 The Transformation\nIn just 6.5 hours\, you won’t just learn “tips.” You will access the power that already lives inside you. \nWhile this healing-informed\, custom-designed experience was created to center BIPOC women and non-binary people age 16+\, non-BIPOC allies who align with our mission are welcome! Whether you are 16 or 65\, an avid hiker or a city walker\, this is for you. We believe every body is a capable body. \nImagine waking up the day after this workshop. Imagine feeling a sense of calm readiness instead of anxiety. Imagine knowing that no matter where you go – the grocery store\, a campsite\, or your workplace – you have the tools to handle it. \nWe guarantee you’ll leave this room different than when you entered. Everyone does. \n \n\nSIGN ME UP!\n  \n🔥 What You Will Master\nForget complex martial arts routines that take years to learn. We focus on instant IMPACT. \n\nThe Power of “NO”: Discover how to use your voice and body language to stop a confrontation before it starts.\nReal-World Defense: Practice full-voice\, full-force scenarios with professional instructors. (Campers! You’ll even learn to defend yourself from inside a sleeping bag!)\nZero Judgment: No fitness required. No prior experience needed. Just come as you are – curious\, nervous\, or ready for change. We got you.\n\n\n🫱🏾‍🫲🏽 Meet Your Instructors\nYou deserve leaders who know the reality. Nicole Snell & Matt Harris aren’t just Certified IMPACT Personal Safety Instructors; they are Black leaders who bring lived experience\, compassion\, and unparalleled expertise.

Getting to hear the education\, along with watching the instructors\, getting to practice every drill several times\, and also getting to watch all my classmates practice was so very educational. Will definitely be strongly recommending this workshop to friends and colleagues. I would say this is the most valuable “outdoors” workshop I have ever taken!” – M. Kim \n“We are so capable!!!! I spend a lot of time on public transportation and feel that the tools we learned in this class are so relevant and useful for navigating everyday life.” – M. Dwyer \n“It’s a super valuable and empowering workshop with other BIPOC female or non-binary identifying participants in a safe space. I learned so much and felt more confident in life afterwards and I would recommend it to everyone.” – X. Liu \n“This course provided a holistic approach and understanding of being outdoors as a woman. I was able to apply the skills being taught to curated or specific outdoor situations I had been in or am worried about being in. I was carefully (and lovingly) coached through each physical interaction or activity\, so my mind was focused on continuing to walk through the procedure and movements rather than trying to remember the order of everything. It was an accessible\, relevant\, and cheerful environment that changed my mind about protection or self-defense courses!!!” – M. Perez \n  \nYES! Let’s Make 2026 Fearless!\nYES! Let’s Make 2026 Fearless!\n
