Back by popular demand! This course is taught by law enforcement / SWAT Team officers who have a vast amount of knowledge but teach it in a way that is down to earth and easy to understand. These are the very guys who teach the rest of their police force organization in self-defense tactics. They really know their stuff and they know how perpetrators think too after interviewing them for years. To hear them speak is fascinating! Half of the course is discussion-oriented and Q&A about how to prevent becoming a victim and the other half of the course is hands-on, learning and practicing self-defense techniques.

Personal Testimony from a past participant:
“Thank you for organizing such an excellent, and more importantly, critically necessary course for the women in our community. My objective in attending the class was to come away with a few self defense tactics that I could apply if the situation presented itself. I left the class with so much more than that. One of the biggest impressions left on me was the key insight on the importance of the power of the mind. In my opinion, the most meaningful part of the class was the information on having a plan and being prepared in order to minimize the likelihood of a situation where self defense tactics would be necessary. The advice shared during this part of class was worth the cost of registration.
The class exceeded my expectations. To say that Joel and Tony were excellent would be an understatement. They made the class engaging and informative. The tactics demonstrated were simple, yet effective. They created a safe and comfortable learning environment. As a result, I feel confident that I will be able to apply one, if not more, of the tactics shared today, should it become necessary. I would absolutely recommend this class. In fact, I found the class so valuable, I have already recommended it to other women.
In my over ten years of experience working in the Training and Development industry, I have attended, participated in, and presented many classes. While it is common for me to come across experts in their respective fields presenting, it is rare for me to find experts that not only share their knowledge, but also have an awareness of the science on how people learn. Joel and Tony not only exhibited this awareness, they implemented all these principals successfully during the class. I am very appreciative of the time they spent training us today. My only recommendation/request would be to someday offer a Part II/Intermediate Women’s Self Defense Class. I suspect there would be several repeat customers. Thank you for the opportunity to share feedback on the class.
Best regards,
Emily H.
