Free Enhancing the Survival Mindset Level 1 class. The Class is Full

This course is geared towards the female civilian to better prepare them for a threatening encounter.  The course will start in the class room where you will receive lecture and Q & A on crime statistics, situational awareness, and survival mindset.

 From there you will move into hands on training to introduce defensive tactic techniques that will contribute to your survival “when” you are ever attacked.  Finally, you will be rotated through several realistic scenes where you will face different threats. Your survival mindset will determine the outcome of these scenarios.

 The course is taught by veteran Defensive Tactics Instructors from the Spokane Police Department.

Most portions of this course are hands on. Please alert the instructor staff on any injuries or physical limitations.  The minimum age to attend is 18 or 17 with an adult.
