Physical skills and range time matter, but they work best when supported by strong mental self‑defense: recognizing danger early, avoiding being targeted, making confident decisions under stress, and understanding what comes next after a defensive encounter.This seminar is designed specifically for women who carry (or are considering carrying) a firearm for personal protection. You’ll learn mental tools and decision‑making skills that help you stay safe long before a situation turns physical—and support better choices if it ever does.What you’ll learnFive powerful situational awareness strategies to help you recognize and avoid threats before they escalate—or before you’re seen as an easy target.Critical steps to keep yourself safe if avoidance fails, including what to prioritize and how to think through options when you’re armed.Mental and legal preparation for a self‑defense situation and its aftermath, with a focus on women who carry firearms.A high‑level overview and discussion of personal safety tools—handguns, less‑lethal options, and other tools—and where they fit in your overall safety plan.Live Q&A with USCCA‑Certified Instructors so you can ask real‑world questions about your lifestyle, gear, and concerns as an armed woman.This mindset‑focused class is one key part of being prepared for the before, during, and after of armed self‑defense. Bring your questions, a notebook, and a friend—we’ll see you there. - **Event URL**: https://allevents.in/melbourne/women-who-carry-awareness-avoidance-and-self‑defense-decisions/100001992425153268 - **Event Categories**: fitness, Workshops - **Interested Audience**: - total_interested_count: 0 - **Event Highlights**: - Duration: 2 hours - Location: FrogBones Family Shooting Center - Languages: English ## Ticket Details - **Ticket Price Range**: min: 0, max: 0, currency: USD ## Event venue details - **city**: Melbourne - **state**: FL - **country**: United States - **location**: FrogBones Family Shooting Center - **lat**: 28.1034148 - **long**: -80.6155534 - **full address**: FrogBones Family Shooting Center, 404 South Harbor City Boulevard, Melbourne, United States ## Event gallery - **Alt text**: Women Who Carry: Awareness, Avoidance, and Self‑Defense Decisions - **Image URL**: https://cdn-az.allevents.in/events6/banners/d136c20700fa327c6bdb54f075a9016b49596d94e53c642907b6129cfcd88ea3-rimg-w1002-h770-dc1c191a-gmir.jpg?v=1782630113 ## FAQs - **Q**: When and where is Women Who Carry: Awareness, Avoidance, and Self‑Defense Decisions being held? - **A:** Women Who Carry: Awareness, Avoidance, and Self‑Defense Decisions takes place on Thu, 23 Jul, 2026 at 02:00 pm to Thu, 23 Jul, 2026 at 04:00 pm at FrogBones Family Shooting Center, 404 South Harbor City Boulevard, Melbourne, United States. - **Q**: Who is organizing Women Who Carry: Awareness, Avoidance, and Self‑Defense Decisions? - **A:** Women Who Carry: Awareness, Avoidance, and Self‑Defense Decisions is organized by Oz Vasquez. - **Q**: Who is this event for?
