Author of In the Gravest Extreme,
Massad Ayoob has been called the god father of self defense.
His training group trains all over the country. normally if you wanted to train with Mas, you would be hopping on a flight to someplace in free America and have to pay for lodging and a rental car on top of tuition.
We have an amazing opportunity to bring the legendary Massad Ayoob to San Diego County and train. However, we can only do it if it makes financial sense, which means if we have enough students.
At this time I’m gathering names of people that are interested in taking his class. If we have enough interest, then I’ll coordinate with Mas on getting him out here in sunny San Diego.
Classes will be at a facility, to be determined, in San Diego County.
These are the options that we’re evaluating:
MAG20 Armed Citizen’s Rules of Engagement
A two-day, 20-hour immersion course in rules of engagement for armed law-abiding private citizens, emphasizing legal issues, tactical issues, and aftermath management. Topics will include interacting with suspects, witnesses, responding police officers…threat recognition and mind-set…management of social and psychological aftermath after having had to use lethal force in defense of self or others…and preparing beforehand for legal repercussions and minimizing exposure to them. Situations in the home, at the place of business, or “on the street” will all be covered.
