Ray Amanat founded “Heroes in Action” mainly because he was a victim of bullying and violence at home and from elementary school through high school. With that, Ray decided to be a “Victim No More”, and to end the bullying and violence in his life. He began studying Martial Arts which gave him the confidence and empowered him to stand up against those who were bullying him. Since schools have “Zero Tolerance” policies, Ray knew he could not teach martial arts in the classroom, but he could apply the principles of honor, integrity, respect and character as part of his curriculum. Since bullying and violence are safety issues, Ray researched, trained and became certified in many programs having to do with public and personal safety. At this point, he founded Heroes In Action, where he developed programs to help adults and children of all abilities to feel empowered to keep themselves safe, as well as to create a culture of respect and non-violence towards others while building a life of success. Ray has since lectured and trained at public and private universities, elementary schools, middle schools, and high schools. He gives seminars and personal safety workshops to individuals, groups and corporations, providing them with street-smart tips, practical advice, and role-playing with real world examples. He works with area law enforcement and is often interviewed by radio and news programs for his expertise on personal safety. He has established himself as a leading advocate for victims of abuse, bullying and violence. His tragic personal experience gave him a first-hand understanding of their experiences, which is why the programs he has developed work. Ray's presentations always bring that Aha moment as he explains his unique approach to addressing the bully or outright handling the threat of a criminal intruder. He will give you the foresight to spot a threat, have a plan of action and utilize an exit strategy in order to get to safety. This is a must for Everyone!
