Erin’s loyalty and commitment to empowerment is a recurring inspiration in my life. – JESSICA WEINER, Global Ambassador of the Dove Self-Esteem Fund
Born out of a tragedy that could’ve easily had the reverse effect on anyone, Erin had the insight, integrity and courage to look deeply at what happened to her close friend Shannon McNamara and turn that event into a powerful message that continues to inspire countless people the world-over. – TONY BLAUER, CEO of Blauer Tactical Systems
Students were talking about and practicing what they had learned as they walked out of the seminar and all the way back to their homes. I was very impressed by that! – JORDAN COPLIN, North Dakota State University
GFB is amazing at getting this important information to women in a way that is empowering and engaging. I don’t think that I have ever heard anyone speak about self-defense with that much enthusiasm and humor. – STEPHANIE AHRENS, Baylor University
I’ve worked in Student Activities for some time now, and Girls Fight Back completely blew me away with their presentation. They were prepared, prompt, engaging, and professional. I haven’t been this impressed with an event in quite some time. – SARAH HILTON, Harrisburg Area Community College
GFB is truly sensational and inspirational. I love that she didn’t make me fearful of attackers or of being attacked. Instead, it made me aware of my surroundings, and her techniques made me feel safer. This presentation is one that I would definitely see again. – SUZANNE SMITH, Texas A&M University
Erin Weed with Students Fight Back was easily one of the most impactful speakers Ohio State has ever had present to our Greek Community. Students were tweeting all night about the presentation. I would recommend Students Fight Back for any group! – JASON MOORE, The Ohio State University
Erin’s workshop is a great example of how education about a difficult topic can be taught in a fun and enjoyable way. Our sorority women much enjoyed their time listening to Erin and we would have her back to our campus in a heartbeat. Great program! – CAROLINE GILBERT, Bucknell University
Students Fight Back is a great program! Though Miami U is location in a small, rural town, its not exempt from assault crimes. Students Fight Back gives students safety knowledge for their time on campus, as well as their lives after college. – KAYLEY KOSEK, Miami University
Erin’s performance was outstanding. Everyone I talked to loved the event and learned a lot. I know many people know who plan on taking other self-defense seminars. – JILL BARANOWSKI, University of Kentucky
Girls Fight Back was easily the best program I have seen come to Denison since I have been here. It was educational and entertaining. The women who went could not stop talking about it the next day. I will take what I learned from Erin and use it for the rest of my life. – BLAIR DUNLEVY, Denison University
Girls Fight Back was a wonderful program. Heather was hilarious and gave moves that could be used in a real life situation. We would bring her back in a heart beat! – CASEY CRUM, University of South Carolina
