I won't go into any real detail here ...I'd be writing volumes, plus if any of you end up going, I'll be spoiling all the suprises they have for you there!
The course is roughly divided into two catagories:
1) Verbal (about 1/3 of the course)
2) Combat (about 2/3 of the course)
Verbal consists of a guy 'woofing' on you, in which you have to de-escalate the confrontation, being assertive, but not aggressive, and definitely NOT showing any fear! (You can FEEL fear, you just can't SHOW it!)
Combat consisted of various attack senarios: Front, rear, tackled from the front & rear, on the ground face up, on the ground face down, and combinations of all of the above!
You know, I actually found the verbal to be the hardest!
