On Alert
strives to equip individuals with an ability to recognize, assess, and
deal with potentially dangerous situations and people.
Most
courses are hands-on and provide the opportunity to explore physical
strengths and limitations. By process of elimination individuals
learn which techniques work best "for them", regardless of their age,
level of fitness or physical ability.
Similar to first aid and
CPR, the idea behind learning and practicing self-defense techniques is to
be mentally prepared and equipped with tools for prevention before attack
occur.
The training encompasses
all ranges of confrontation from verbal to deadly physical. Everyone
can benefit from this type of preparation.
On Alert advocates
self-protection, not violence.
Pre-registration for all
classes is required.
To insure our high quality
of instruction, class sizes are limited and on a first-come-first-serve
basis. |
