This SafeSkills® workshop will teach you responses for an assailant with a gun, knife or bludgeon. You will practice in a safe environment and will be able to evaluate different strategies and skills you can use with each type of weapon. There will be a particular emphasis on the psychology of facing a weapon. Take this opportunity to prepare yourself. This is a powerful workshop you don't want to miss!
You will learn:
• to recognize the different motivations of armed assailants e.g. robbery, sexual assault, mugging etc
• different responses needed when facing guns, knives or bludgeons
• team work strategies
• physical skills of yelling, kicking, evading and shielding effectively

These are not highly complicated disarming or restraint training techniques. Like all of our workshops, the skills and concepts in this special class are simple and easy to learn, and designed for the average person.

Attendance at a previous SafeSkills® basic self-defense workshop is a pre-requisite.
