Basic Instincts - "Don't Be a Victim" is a proprietary program developed and created by Grandmaster Garry Welch over the past 44 years of teaching civilians and professionals in personal protection. This program can be taught in schools, businesses, churches, corporations, universities, and any special social clubs, only to mention a few. Basically, we can format this program to fit whatever need someone, or any group has.

This training class is part of our DRST (Dynamic Response Survival Training) program.

The class can be as short as 1 hour, or as long as 4 - 8 hours, depending on the needs of the client. Also, we can even make it an all-day seminar.

We can do the lecture portion which is approximately 1 ½ hours as a stand-alone presentation.

And then if requested, we can also add a Practical Training portion where everyone that desires to participate can get some basic hands-on practice in simple, nonsense practical self-defense moves for as long as the client requests.

This course is designed around educating people in how to identify physiological signs in response to their 5 senses, and the 6th sense of “Knowing Without Knowing… Why You Know”.  The teaching centers around a person learning how to spot Threat Indicators and Threat Cues, and how to respond accordingly.

It is a life-saving teaching that anyone can learn very quickly.
