The Spokane Police Department offers the Enhancing the Survival Mindset (ESM) women’s self-defense class, this coming Thursday, April 9, 2015, from 6-10 p.m. ESM offers participants hands-on self-defense and safety awareness training by Spokane Police officers.
The Enhancing the Survival Mindset Level 1 course offers participants the opportunity to learn the basics of self-defense. The course consists of a classroom portion where participants will receive information on crime statistics, situational awareness, and information on enhancing their survival mindset. Hands-on training introduces participants to defensive tactics techniques and places participants into realistic threat scenarios. A participant’s survival mindset will determine the outcome of these scenarios. Attendees must be at least 17 years old with an adult family member present to participate. There is a $35 charge to cover the costs associated with the class.
ESM Level 1 will be held on April 9, from 6-10 p.m. Another ESM Level 1 class will be held on April 23, also from 6-10 p.m.
Enhancing the Mindset Level 2 is the next step in the reinforcement and development of the survival mindset.
