The Physical Intervention course looks at Physical Intervention Skills and Defensive Physical Skills. We aim to help you learn to deal with all scenarios that can occur and how to deal with the situation effectively. Defensive Physical Skills allows you to be safe and have the knowledge to leave a high risk situation. It also teaches you that the way you approach a situation can influence and inflame an incident and advises on your physical manner. Physical Intervention is the opposite of Defensive Physical Skills and used only when no other option is available. Physical Intervention enables you to 'guide' a person to the chosen route way or to 'block' and 'deflect' blows or grabs used by an attacker. Alternatively it allows you to 'disengage' from an attackers hold, hold someone we are escorting or if the need arises restrain. Course Outlines
