VIGILANCE - Level 1
What is Vigilance? It is the state of constantly being watchful of potential dangers or threats.
Vigilance is the first and a very important ingredient in personal protection and self defense. Being vigilant allows you to observe, recognize and take action against conflict and violence, potentially before they occur. Vigilance provides you with the observation skills to recognize danger and take action, operating Left of Bang.
It is a state of being constantly aware of your environment and assessing danger or threats in order to take action to avoid or minimize that danger. I call it being, turned on and tuned in.
This 3 hour Level 1 class is a great place to start. It is suggested that people wishing to learn how to protect themselves start with this class. It builds a strong foundation of knowledge and skills that will be usable immediately and useful in any other training that you do. Tactics, strategies and skills for dealing with conflict and violent situations are introduced in this class.
It is ideal for beginners and students with experience wanting to expand their knowledge and improve their skills.
YOU WILL LEARN:
What to know;
Wear comfortable clothing you can move in. You will be sitting and discussing some topics and getting up and performing others on your own and with a partner. Everything is totally voluntary and you will participate as you feel comfortable. All levels of physical abilities are welcome.
SAMARITAN - Level 2
SAMARITAN is designed for people with all levels of skill and knowledge. Participants will learn realistic, reliable and usable skills for protecting themselves and others in conflict and violent encounters.
We chose the name SAMARITAN as learning personal protection is not just about protecting yourself but also protecting and helping others in dangerous situations.
Thus being a "Good Samaritan" or Protector of others.
This 4 hour seminar is a continuation and expansion of VIGILANCE. We introduce mindset, more threat assessment skills, OODA Loop and how we function under stress. The use of visualization and scenario role playing is introduced to give you tools to work with and expand your abilities to protect yourself and others.
SAMARITAN is more physical and we delve into real life threats and how to respond empty handed and with weapons such as impact and cutting weapons.
YOU WILL LEARN:
