Girls Fight Back

Girls Fight Back was founded in 2001 by Erin Weed after the murder of her college sorority sister, Shannon McNamara. This terrible tragedy inspired Weed to learn all she could about personal safety, self-defense and women's empowerment. After training with the best violence prevention experts and self-defense instructors in the world, she created the innovative Girls Fight Back approach. Mixing humor and empowerment with the practical needs of today's woman, Weed has created revolutionary personal safety programs, courses, educational tools and a cutting-edge women's self-defense studio.
