Last week, Everyday Self Defence had the pleasure of delivering our Enhanced Security Team Training Course to some of the team members from a prestigious five-star London hotel. Our course is an enhanced package that goes beyond basic SIA training, with a primary focus on decision-making, effective team communication and confidence in explaining action taken. The course includes:
 * Effective decision-making in fast-moving situations * Law and policy * Post-incident considerations * Conflict communication and de-escalation * Controlling space and safe approach * Team-based control and restraint * Self-defence against sudden assault * Edged weapon awareness * Post-incident reporting Working with the Director of Security & Safety, Martin Kane we tailored the course to incorporate the lessons learned from previous incidents. Martin has built a diligent and focused team of security officers, and is very commitment to their ongoing training and support. It was a fantastic experience to train such a dedicated team. Thank you, Martin, for the amazing feedback it was a real pleasure and we look forward to meeting the rest of the team this week.

𝗔𝗿𝗲 𝗦𝗮𝗳𝗲𝗿 𝗦𝘁𝗮𝗳𝗳 𝗽𝗿𝗼𝗴𝗿𝗮𝗺𝗺𝗲𝘀 𝗰𝗹𝗮𝘀𝘀𝗲𝘀 𝗼𝗿 𝗰𝗼𝘂𝗿𝘀𝗲𝘀? At Everyday Self Defence, we receive enquiries from organisations about running self defence classes. The enquiry is usually a request for a couple of 45-minute classes once a week, similar to how fitness classes are set up. If the goal is to do this as a team building opportunity, then these short sessions have some value and of course are a lot of fun. But this is not a Safer Staff programme. In a 45-minute session, participants expect it to be physical in nature, which is understandable, but before we do any physical skills, there's a host of subjects we need to discuss and share opinions and sometimes, experiences of. Safer Staff programmes are about balancing both education and training, to ensure that any physical skills taught have context and in turn build confidence. Everyday Self Defence offers both team building AND Safer Staff programmes. The team building session is the first step towards creating Safer Staff to build interest and curiosity, and then move to a longer programme which covers essential subjects and skills to keep staff staff when going to and from work, or in the course of their duties.

📣 𝗜𝗻𝘁𝗿𝗼𝗱𝘂𝗰𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗘𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘆𝗱𝗮𝘆 𝗦𝗲𝗹𝗳 𝗗𝗲𝗳𝗲𝗻𝗰𝗲 📣 After two years of development, we are excited to formally announce the launch of EverydaySelf Defence, a brand dedicated to equipping individuals with the skills and confidence to protect themselves. Our mission is to provide comprehensive self-defence, de-escalation, and personal safety training for both the public and private sectors. Following Military Service and working in Private Security, our co-founder Jonathan Bullock has devoted his career to teaching self defence, as we believe everyone has the right to learn to protect themselves. He has trained extensively in various systems and has refined these methods through working with military units and law enforcement, front line personnel who have limited training time to learn essential skills. Two years ago, a conversation with Marc Nohr sparked the idea to adapt these for the corporate sector. Since then, we have been working tirelessly to develop a series of courses that meets the unique needs of our clients from self defence, to de-escalation and personal safety. Our programs are designed for everyone—from frontline workers who may encounter conflict as part of their job, to CEOs committed to their staff’s safety and wellbeing. We believe that safety and wellbeing should extend beyond the company’s doors. We have collaborated with some of the world’s leading educators, authors, and experts to create training methods that are accessible, regardless of fitness level or prior experience. Our goal is to make self-defence skills attainable for all. The positive feedback from our clients, including SKY, Virgin Media O2, Fishmongers Hall, and Enfield Council, has been invaluable in helping us refine our programs. 
Thank you to Marc for his support and guidance as co-founder. We welcome any questions, feedback, or experiences you’d like to share regarding self-defence or personal safety in the workplace. #selfdefence #deescalation #saferstaff #wellbeing #employeesmatter #conflictresolution
