Did you know that over two and a half million people report being assaulted in one way or another every year in the United States? This means that a physical criminal assault occurs once every two minutes somewhere in the U.S. Over 80 percent of these violent crimes are committed by a person without a weapon. So that means that the majority of them are just hand to hand. In many cases, violent crimes are committed by untrained perpetrators who aren't professional fighters at all, or they haven't been professionally trained at all. One university study showed that when people were trained in self defense, and empowered with effective self defense skills, their confidence went way up. And they were not afraid to stand their ground and resist off offensive suggestions, and the chances of being assaulted dropped substantially. At ProTrainings we believe that with basic, effective, training on how to minimize risks and threats, be aware of environmental dangers, and learn simple yet effective skills that empower us to defend ourselves, friends, and strangers, we can make our whole society a safer place to live. My name is Roy Shaw, and my combat training started in 1989 with the U.S. Army. And it continued when I began studying different forms of martial arts including Tae Kwon Do, Brazillian Jiu Jitsu and Krav Maga personal defense systems. You'll see many of these arts and tactics integrated into the self defense program that I'll be teaching you during this course. But my journey doesn't stop there. I'm also a co-founding partner of a very successful online learning website that delivers life saving skills to both professionals and laypersons. And I believe that the principles that are used with our other online programs will make this online self defense training the most effective and life saving training available on the web. I'm also a husband, and a father of six children, a professional rescuer, and I care about the safety and well being of everyone. I believe that if I am not part of the solution, I become part of the problem. So I, and my partners, have decided to become part of the solution. One could say that preventing premature death and saving lives is a big part of who we are. And when my children became old enough to leave home and be on their own, it was obvious that they may encounter predators in different situations of life. That's when I began training them in easy to learn, and the most effective skills available to prevent, neutralize or defeat a threat. It was this passion that translated into a desire to help train other people in these same life-saving and assault preventing skills. No one deserves to be threatened, and what's more, no one deserves to be assaulted and victimized. My goal is to train you in less than one day to effectively defend yourself and others. Then, I want to keep your training effective by refreshing your skills on a regular basis, in the comfort of your own home, at your pace, on a computer or a smart device, so that you're empowered with the ability to neutralize any threat you may encounter. This training should sharply decrease the chance of you needing to use your training. But unfortunately, every two minutes someone does need it. And though we don't ever want this to happen, my goal is to teach you how to survive. This training will be delivered to you in the following format. First, you're gonna see a common or potential threat in a real-time realistic scenario. Secondly, we're gonna break down the skill required to prevent or stop the threat, in an easy to learn, easy to understand process. Number three, see the skill in real-time and watch how effective it is when it's used correctly. And then lastly, you're gonna learn how to practice this skill on your own, so that you can become confident and effective. Once you're trained, we'll send refresher videos to you via e-mail once per week. These will be three-to-five minute videos covering the topics you learned in your initial certification program for self defense tactics. We want you to refresh often in order to move once learned skills from a subconscious level into a reflexive area. This can only happen by continuous refresher and practice. Now before you think I'm being over-cautious or a hypochondriac, I really am simply encouraging all of us to be concerned and prepared, not fearful, frozen and victimized. So now, if you're ready to become trained in effective self defense tactics, let's get started.
