About Jennie Trower
Jennie Trower began training in Krav Maga in 2002, became an instructor 10 years later, then went on to start her own self-defense business and co-found another a few years later.
In recent years Jennie took a step back from teaching self-defense and stepped forward into the world of emergency management, finding many parallels between it and self-defense.
Today, she serves as both a disaster action team and government operations liaison with the American Red Cross, responding to home fires, exercising and planning for large-scale disasters, and collaborating with local and regional emergency management entities.
Jennie is also the executive director of the Association of Women Martial Arts Instructors (AWMAI), a 30-year-old global professional organization dedicated to training, supporting and promoting instructors and business owners in the fields of martial arts and self-defense.
