What You'll Learn
Format: In-person
Overview: We live in a mindset of constant distraction – by smartphones, social media, our busy lives, and normalcy bias. The world around us is NOT getting safer and all too often we fall victim to the “It Can’t Happen to Me” mentality. Well, IT CAN and DOES HAPPEN to people just like you, daily. And you don’t always see it coming. This 90 minute in-person course will provide you with an in-depth look at situational awareness and perspective on “what ‘good’ looks like”. In addition, you will better understand how personal protection differs from self-defense and why both matters. Most importantly, you will gain insight into the available options for non-lethal and armed self-defense.
Benefits: Our life-saving training helps individuals achieve high levels of situational awareness, conflict avoidance, personal protection, self-defense, and emergency first-aid. Participants will gain insight into the risks faced and strategies they can pursue to enhance their safety, and the safety of their loved ones. They will more clearly understand personal protection and self-defense tactics while gaining insight to the many tools they can incorporate into their own personal plans. Self-defense products covered in the course will include: personal key-chain alarms, tactical pens, pepper spray, stun guns, civilian Tasers and self-defense “launchers”. Participants will walk away feeling empowered to make informed decisions and have immediate options to enhance their safety through additional training and/or purchase of self-defense products. In addition, participants can get advice on ways to find discounted pricing with many self-defense products covered in the course.
Unlike our online course, participants will be able to touch, feel, handle, and physically see a live demonstration of the devices.

What We'll Teach
Developing a Personal Plan & Home Protection Plan
Developing a personal & home protection plan is a key component of not only preparing for how we should (or might) react if confronted by a violent crime, but also how we might avoid violent crime in the first place. Within this lesson, Michael Martin explains that developing a protection plan is about much more than becoming proficient with a firearm or writing up a home invasion plan. It’s a plan that must encompass awareness, avoidance, and preparation, so that we’re less likely to find ourselves in a situation where we have no other option than to use our firearm, rather than more likely.
