Another article in a series on martial artists in the San Francisco area, "Cyndy Hayashi - A martial artist making a difference" (http://www.examiner.com/x-5948-SF-Martial-Arts-Examiner~y2009m9d17-Cyndy-Hayashi--A-martial-artist-making-a-difference) highlights Hayashi sensei of Aikido West in Redwood City.
From the article: "She remarked that her training has saved on five separate occasions when she was attacked. It is not so much that she was successful in defending herself but that she responded with the appropriate response to the different attacks. Deadly force was needed only on one occasion."
