It is possible to conduct specialized violence prevention / self-defense seminars for groups (teams within a company as a team-building event, or customer-facing workplaces such as government offices, banks, shops, service industries, etc.). The group size should be at least 4 and no more than 12-14 people.
The content typically includes training in assertiveness scenarios, verbal de-escalation, avoiding critical situations, recognizing the tipping point at which an aggressor will physically attack, and basic self-defense techniques. All of this is practiced with a partner and using pads.
The specific content, and especially the group-specific details (how to behave in a customer-facing workplace, what typical problem situations have arisen so far, what should be a focus of the training, etc.), will be discussed in advance.
The duration can be individually tailored, but at least 2-3 hours (including a short break) would be ideal, or even more effective, a full seminar with several sessions.
Location / Seminar-room will be provided by the group organizator.
