I’ve been in law enforcement for just under 10 years now. I’ve taken multiple courses and nothing comes close to these instructors. There is no slide shows or talking it was straight to business. Hands on experience with real life scenarios is how you learn. Excellent instructing.

The hands-on instruction was so insightful and practical. What I also appreciated most is the breakdown/ articulation of the different levels of resisting and what you can/can’t apply. I highly recommend this class!

Great class not many academies teach what to do when de-escalation fails to get people out of a car and a non-compliant subject escalates a simple traffic stop. Every agency should have some form of training on this.
