Jobs for America's Graduates
“The students were lucky enough to get a hands-on self defense lesson from Instructor Dean.
Speaking with my JAG students they absolutely loved the time they spent at WI-MAFC and they say ‘Thank you for the experience’.
Once again I truly appreciate the time we got to spend with you, Charles.”

Dear Diary of Madison
"Charles Dean’s self defense class was informative and an exciting experience.
Each girl in Dear Diary's H.E.R. Space was able to participate at their comfort level. He was very engaging and his assistants were amazing.
We can’t wait for another round."

Lindbergh Elementary School
“It was awesome to have our students get involved with the presentation, demonstrating the 3 T’s: Talk, Tell, Tackle.
I heard multiple students that day talk about your presentation and how they are going to use the skills they learned in their lives.
Our teachers were also greatly appreciative to have the common language needed to discuss these strategies.”

“Many residents in attendance had some sort of physical limitation and not only
was Charles aware of that, but he dedicated time in his presentation to show how one might
defend themselves from a sitting position, with the use of only one limb, etc. I was and still am
in awe of the compassion and kindness displayed by Charles and his team…”

He’s a very creative instructor, he tailors his classes to be fun & challenging at the same time.
