What Makes us Different

Most businesses involved in personal and corporate safety rely on martial arts techniques and handgun training as their primary methods of education. Most businesses involved in asset protection rely on security guards and bodyguards as their primary methods of providing services.

We view this approach as short-sighted.

Assault Prevention takes a holistic approach toward personal safety and asset protection. This requires, by definition, that a number of other factors are considered. A holistic approach to personal protection, corporate safety and self-defense should address all 3 elements that come into play with any unexpected emergency.

• Cognitive ability: This is the intellectual ability, or thinking process which includes planning, tactics and decision-making. Cognitive skills increase through learning, study and discussion.
• Affective skills: The ability to control psychological reaction under stress. Affective (or psychological/spiritual) abilities increase primarily through simulation training.
• Motor skills: Does the person experiencing the emergency know the appropriate response? Have they been trained in the use of appropriate physical actions?

Although much of our work revolves around mitigating violent behavior, all three of these skill sets are called into play during any High Stress situation and deeply affects the outcome.
