How To Protect Yourself From A Violent Drug Addict




Last night's Personal Defence Readiness™ Class in Brighton, we focused on using a real life incident caught on camera, where a person was thrown to the ground and stamped upon. Unfortunately they died! All because of some drug addict needing a next hit! It's a very powerful clip to watch and learn from. Comments after students watched it were such as: "There was nothing they could have done!" "They had no awareness!" etc. It opened up some good discussion and re-framing of the incident. We then started analysing it, breaking it down, drilling isolated components and then building up to replicating it in real speed, real time in the High Gear™ Suits (for the advanced students). The guys did a great job last night and seemed like they were having fun getting a good workout whilst benefitting from practicing from 'off-balance to on-balance' positions' to develop realistic confidence and competence in making sure they will not become prey for some psycho drug addict.
