More distance you have, the more benefits you have...The ability to detect a possible threat greater than 30 feet is important.
Daphne Robert-Hamilton emphasizes the importance of exercising situational awareness every day. Training for visual cues of threats at 30-50 feet including the environmental cues and individual cues. Do blind scenarios using OODA (orientate, observe, decide, act) Loop then de-briefing afterward in class.
We need to train intuition/observation/decision skills at the 30-50ft boundary to have time to decide the best course of action to avoid a violent encounter. Being caught off guard and having to do hand-to-hand combat means that you were lacking in personal protection skills when it mattered and you had time to avoid the situation.
More development of MINDSET for women. We need to own our own personal safety and realize that help is not going to get there in time.
Teach confidence in walking, teach situational awareness skills, teach body postures to gain confidence, teach voice commands, and setting boundaries. Teach women to have a warrior mindset.
