Course Information
This class is reality based: we will teach what works best to defend against threats to your life and body in the real world. The training exposes you to simulated verbal attacks from obnoxious bar patrons, vulgar street thugs and the common irate, shopper who gets in your face and starts cussing a blue streak in the parking lot. As a reality based class the students are presented with live simulations which forces one to function even while jacked up on adrenaline. Since the adrenal rush is an instinctual reaction to stress, the trick is learning to harness and focus all that power into one’s defense by using tools that don’t require size or strength for the average person. Preferred strategy: remain cognizant of surrounding at all times. This increases our chance of being successful and fluctuates from day to night.
