Mindset & Awareness - How to Avoid the Fight

Mindset & Awareness - How to Avoid the Fight

What is the best way to win a fight?….. Don’t get in one.

Not everyone wants to, or feels comfortable with, carrying a firearm. We believe that making that decision is a very responsible thing to do. However, just because you choose not to, doesn’t mean you can neglect personal safety all together.

As we have seen time and again, the world is a very dangerous place. And it seems to be getting worse as the weeks go by. Violent crime is rising to all-time highs, and the moment you tell yourself that it cant happen to you, will be the moment you find yourself in a very serious situation that likely could have been avoided. So how do we avoid these situations and keep ourselves and those around us safe and secure?

Mindset. Situational awareness. Paying attention to your surroundings and not getting distracted are key elements in personal safety. During this discussion we will discuss tools to use in danger avoidance. We will discuss cues and tell-tale signs of a potential threat, reading body language, avoidance and de-escalation techniques. We will talk about methods you can use to stay vigilant without looking paranoid.

This discussion is open to all ages. It is a good chance to have younger community members learn about how to help protect themselves without ever needing to engage with a potential threat.

Cost: $40

Light snacks, beverages, and note taking items will be provided.
