"I always thought a normal reaction to a hand to hand combat situation would be to fight, defend yourself and try to control or escape the situation.

"How soon can I go again!? I LOVED this experience. It's still a topic of party conversation months after the event. And truly, a once in a lifetime experience (until the next time). I learned to shoot a gun, I learned I’m a pretty good shot, I learned how to sweep a room, I learned not to shoot the innocent civilian, I learned to team with a group of women that were relative strangers. I learned to laugh in extreme situations. I came home and pondered-how can I give this to my staff? how can I go back with friends? A perfect weekend with wonderful hosts. My husband has been known to quip, “Yeah, I wouldn’t mess with your mother . . she’s been to spy school, you know.” I feel more confident, stronger, and have friends (that know how to cover my back) all over the country.

Thanks to Stiletto Spy School, I am a force!"

"It was so great to be at SSS and completely forget who I was for the day as compared to my usual role as mom, chauffeur, homework helper, disciplinarian, cook, school volunteer, etc!I really was out of my daily element and had a whole day to do nothing but think of what I was doing at the moment, think about me, and feel a little like a sexy and dangerous new girl!Hopefully I will be bringing home some of those dance moves to incorporate into the daily vacuuming and shake things up a little!"
