Be Your Own Defender (BYOD) is our basic civilian training program, intended for anyone from teenagers to adults of any age. It is two to three hours in length, with a combination of classroom instruction and moderately physical skills and drills.
Each participant receives a nine-piece training kit, included with the class fee.
The kit provides everything needed for the class, including the actual Defender OC (pepper spray) device that will be carried on the street for personal protection once training is complete.
