Concealed Carry: Street Encounter Skills and Tactics

This course is designed to provide students with a holistic and layered approach to effective self-defense, beginning with an understanding of criminal violence and then building skills and tactics to meet those challenges.

Course Syllabus

Online Instruction (4 hours)

To maximize the in-person learning opportunity, the first four hours of the class are delivered via Internet video. These presentations cover a variety of topics and are intended to inform and challenge students to assess their assumptions and current approach to self-defense. Topics include:

• Developing the defensive mindset

• Tactics and techniques to support the Awareness, Avoidance, De-Escalation, Evasion paradigm

• Conflict communications

• Implications of 3rd party defense

Numerous other novel topics that are designed to educate while prompting questions that only the student can answer for themselves

Onsite Instruction (16 hours)

Two full days of onsite instruction begin with a Q&A on the online video series, followed by a presentation of baseline “stop the bleed” skills and practical application. Classroom work ends with a discussion and application on methods to incorporate pepper spray into self-defense preparations.

During the remainder of the weekend, concepts and skills will be demonstrated, and then interwoven into highly effective tactics derived from studying the patterns associated social and predatory violence.

• Street Encounter Skills

• Tactical Anatomy and “Shooting in 3-D”

• Time and timing
