Personal Protection Training

My Personal Protection Training is for everyday people who want to feel safer walking to their car, answering the door, or dealing with a difficult ex or legal situation. You do not need to be an athlete or a fighter; you just need a willingness to learn simple habits that actually work under stress.

I start with practical self-defense techniques that match your age, mobility, and comfort level. These are straightforward moves that help you break free, create distance, and get to safety, rather than movie-style fighting. You practice them in a low-pressure setting until they feel natural.

Alongside the physical skills, I place a big emphasis on Situational Awareness Training. I teach you how to read a room, spot problems early, and avoid walking into trouble in the first place. Many clients tell me this alone changes how they move through parking lots, public spaces, and social situations, and it dramatically lowers their risk.

For those with specific concerns-like a court date, a breakup, a stalking issue, or a high-visibility job-I offer Threat Assessment and Personal Security Planning. I sit down with you, look at your daily routines, home, work, and online presence, and identify where you are most exposed. Then I give you a clear, written game plan: safer routes, communication protocols, home security tweaks, and personal behaviors that make you a harder target.

Everything is grounded in the same mindset I used to protect victims, witnesses, and officers over a 35-year law enforcement career. The end result is simple: you move through your day with more confidence, because you know you have a plan, the skills to back it up, and a clear understanding of how to avoid trouble whenever possible.
