Law enforcement professionals often ask me if we have special classes for them.

Because we understand the importance of weapon retention during any incident and how vocal commands are used to control a situation we are able to provide detailed instruction during our classes for LE professionals. Furthermore, we are trained to have conversations with our LE students about their specific paradigm of excessive force and how using combatives may be different for each individual.
