Corporate self-defence
There is a growing trend in companies providing their employees with personal safety training in the workplace as part of their corporate well-being initiatives for their staff. What a fantastic way for a company to show that it appreciates its staff and cares for their welfare. The course also provides a great opportunity for team building and boosting company morale.
We have conducted personal safety/self defence training at many blue chip companies as well as courses for smaller businesses. A few of our clients are
Ranbaxy
Honeywell

Why verbal diffusion is so important
Q: Do you train men and women?
A: Yes, we teach both women and men together. However, when requested we can
teach these groups separately and this is done for a couple of reasons. Firstly
the patterns of attack tend to be different for males and females: Generally
when a male is attacked the attack is usually from the front and invariably does
not have a sexual motive compared to an attack on a female by a man which is
often from behind and often has a sexual motive. Thus the types of defence
techniques taught vary in order to deal with the different attack patterns.
Secondly, women tend to feel more comfortable in a group with just women when
subjects such as rape and sexual abuse are discussed.
However, if a group of men has a small group of women who wish to join the course and vice versa we can can discuss tailoring the course. Ideally though the groups should be taught separately.
Q: Is this a martial arts
course?
A: No, Self-Defence . in has designed their courses specifically
with the everyday person in mind. We base our course content on real life safety
awareness concerns and real life attack patterns that we have studied over many
years. Martial Arts is a sport and a way of life and thus is not always
practical when it comes to realistic, effective and easy to remember “street”
self-defence techniques.
Q: Is the training held in
house?
A: Selfdefence . in will come in and teach at your company. The workshops are
usually run during office hours we are flexible so as to accommodate the most
suitable time for your company.
Q: How
much space is needed to train?
A: A space no bigger than an average sized meeting room. Some of our clients
clear a small area in the office canteen.
Q: Does
the company need any equipment?
A: Selfdefence . in will provide all the necessary training equipment.
Q: Is there a min & max number
for a course?
A: There is no minimum number but we have a maximum of 30 per session. Two
instructors wil be present at each course.
Q: How much do the workshops
cost?
A: we have price brackets as follows:
1-10 employees
11-20 employees
21-49 employees
50-74 employees
75+ employees
vat taxes & conveyance refreshment etc.
we would be pleased to give a quote.
Please note: We have a minimum 1 hour workshop charge Inr 20000/ + VAT For courses conducted in Delhi, a travel cost charge is made. This travel charge is always discussed and pre agreed with the client prior to the workshop.
We focus on general safety awareness and the reinforcement of good personal safety habits. The participants are encouraged to share their views, experiences and concerns. Thus the workshops are very scenario based rather than in lecture format.
Q: Do you have to be fit to do the course?
A: You do not have to be fit or sporty. Self-defence training is a life skill
and not a fitness or martial arts class.
