About the event
Whether you’re a freshman at a college fraternity party, a special forces operative on a no-fail mission in the Middle East, or a soccer mom driving kids home after practice, the skills we teach are universal. Start by assessing every environment, including your home. Establish a baseline of normalcy by integrating cultural norms and situational awareness in real time. Anything that deviates from this baseline is a potential threat.
For instance, a guy at the fraternity party staring at you and offering an already made drink, a choke point along your route in Afghanistan, or a car mirroring every turn you make while driving home—all are potential threats. Being Empower Graduates, all three have visualized these scenarios and your appropriate reactions multiple times before they became reality, so you’re prepared and won’t freeze in a critical moment. Fight or Flight, victims freeze. We make sure you have the skills and techniques so you don’t freeze.
Don’t be a victim. Let Empower Academy give you peace of mind, knowing you and your loved ones are fully capable and prepared for any threat.
