Level 3

Title: Breakaway and Self Defence

Description: This course is designed to equip staff with the skills and techniques to break-away and protect themselves in aggressive situations where they have been threatened or physically assaulted. It is a practical course requiring active participation from course delegates. The course is designed and taught by professional martial artists with over 20 years experience in self defence training.

Who should attend: All employees who work within an environment that places them at risk of assault from members of the public whilst in the course of doing their duty, for example, those who work alone in the community or with high-risk patient/client groups.

On successful completion of the course a certificate will be presented to the students.

Objectives: By the end of the course, delegates should be able to:

  • Realise that breakaway & self-defence techniques are only used when all other options have failed.
  • Understand how Health & Safety legislation is there for your benefit.
  • Apply the correct & safest way to defend from a variety of grabs whilst standing, seated behind a desk, in a bed situation, and whilst in a car for those in the community.
  • Assess, & use your environment, thus working out the quickest possible escape route, to minimise confrontation.
  • Remember to use the minimum amount of force, thus minimising any possible injury to yourself, & the assailant, & to continually remember your responsibility towards therapeutic input at all times.
