How much does the Self Defense Course cost?

What is your personal safety worth to you? As I describe on the Course page, I recently moved this Course to Udemy at a much lower price, from its $264 launch price down to only $94.99! This is now well WELL below the cost of other comparable programs out there. Because times are tough, wallets are tight, and dangers are rising. So this training is more needed than ever, and its new price is more than worth the immense value you will get from all the essential safety lessons and self defense skills it will teach you. So visit Udemy.com to get this Course at its new super sweet low price.

How much time will the Self Defense Course take?

My Self Defense Course is designed into 8 easy modules with an average of 22 minutes (and no more than 40 minutes) of video lessons per module, plus one or two simple homework assignments that you can complete on your own schedule each module. And if that’s still too much, you can always take these lessons at whatever pace you’re able. You don’t have to complete the modules on any specific schedule. Obviously, faster is more ideal so you can learn and benefit from these self defense skills as soon as possible. But I’ll take whatever time you have to give!

Do I have to be a woman to join?

Not at all. I designed this Tough Cookie Travel site and Self Defense Course for women+ because I saw a serious lack of self defense training that addressed and understood their experience specifically. But this program applies to anyone who has felt routinely and systemically marginalized and objectified. Anyone who’s been assaulted, harassed, violated, or made to feel smaller, weaker, or less than. Anyone who’s struggled to stand up for themselves, to defend and protect themselves, and their loved ones. Anyone who wants to learn how to do that, but doesn’t connect with those macho, thick-headed, male-dominated classes taught by men who claim to have the answers without understanding what you actually go through. If any of this applies to you, then I got you and this Tough Cookie program is for you. 

What exactly do you mean by “woman+” or “women+”? 

When I say I designed this program for women+, I mean anyone who identifies as a woman, or even identifies with women. But again, anyone can join this program, even if that moniker doesn’t apply to you. You might just have to bear with me whenever I specifically address women+. 

Do you need to be strong to learn this? Or have taken self defense before?

Not at all! I’ve designed this Self Defense Course to be very easy and effective to learn, no matter what your previous training, physical abilities, or comfort level. Of course, I do encourage you to push yourself and give this Course your all, so you can discover (perhaps for the first time) what you are fully capable of. You never know until you try. And I genuinely believe this Course can help you figure that out.

How long will I have access to the Self Defense Course?

You get lifetime access to the whole shebang with your membership purchase, including all of the Self Defense Course’s content, any of its content updates, and our Tough Cookie community. No further purchases necessary. There are of course other items available for sale on this site, but rest assured you will never lose access to the Tough Cookie Self Defense Course you purchase (so long as I’m still able to deliver the content to you of course).

When does the Self Defense Course start?

Whenever you want it to! The beauty of this online course is that you can start, pause, come back, and continue it whenever you’re able, at your own pace. We will have regular community check-in calls, virtual meetups, and online sessions that you can join at specific times. But otherwise, the timing of this Course is entirely up to you. 

Are new membership spots available forever? 

Yes and no. We have reopened enrollment again at our only-slightly-higher-than-launch price, where we intend to stay for the foreseeable future. That said, we do reserve the right to close enrollment again at any point if our number of memberships grows larger than we can feel we can honestly and compassionately support. So if you want to make sure you get a spot, don’t hesitate to sign up as soon as possible.

What if I’m not satisfied with the Self Defense Course? 

I’ve put an immense amount of time and effort into creating this Course for you, which is why I am 100% CONFIDENT that it will have a positive impact on your courage, confidence, and personal safety. But if you are not satisfied with the Course, you can always follow the terms and conditions on our Refund Policy and let me know within 60 days. If you have done the work, but are still not satisfied with what you’ve learned, I will give you 100% of your money back. That is how much I believe in this Course!

I’m still nervous. How do I know I can do this?

I know you can do this, if you just believe that you can too. We all struggle at times, myself included. But true strength and courage is feeling the fear and doing it anyway, picking yourself back up and learning from it. You may find parts of this Course tough, but that’s how we grow. That’s what makes us stronger. And wouldn’t you rather learn this first in the comfort of your home with this online Course, before you have to use it out in the real world? I will be there every step of the way through this Course. I got your back boo. And you got you too.
