About this Course:

This course is part of the Sidney Reilly Experience

A master spy needs to know how to maintain environmental awareness. But just knowing what is going on around you is not enough. You have to be able to read the clues and predict what may be coming. Are you in safe, or do certain clues help you see what could become a very dangerous situation?

In addition to reading the situational awareness, you need to be able to read people, often from a distance. Can you tell who may be out of place in the room without looking at facial features or clothing? Not just to predict threats, but to spot potential allies, potential obstacles, etc. You need to be able to walk in a room and know if something goes wrong, who might be able help you as much as who might be there to hurt you.

The skills learned in this course will help prepare you to excel in the later courses in the series.

This course will cover the following topics:

Increasing Overall Situational Awareness
Reading and Interpreting the Baseline
Reading and Interpreting Clues in the Flow
Reading and Interpreting Body Language from a Distance
Reading and Interpreting Body Language during Conversation
Detecting Anomalies in People and the Environment
Other Topics only Disclosed to Students

While this series is labeled as a "Spy" series, the lessons taught are directly applicable for all people in their daily life.

We guarantee this course will change the way you see crowds and individuals.

Other Courses in the Series Include:

Surveillance and Counter-Surveillance
Close Range Improvised Weapons
Kidnaping Prevention and Escape

Those who complete the full series will be rewarded with a challenge coin.

You can take the courses in any order.

Knowing the proper way to stop someone’s bleeding and how to keep the breathing is truly the difference between life and death.

Direct and indirect pressure

Myths and Misconceptions of tourniquets

About This Course:

When there is an item located in a building on a compound, getting to and securing that item is a multi-step process. First you have to be able to safely approach the building. Then you have to secure the exterior of the building. Once the exterior is secure, you make entry and retrieve the item. Finally, you have to safely escape the compound with the item. The military goes through this process when they have to raid a structure to obtain intelligence material, or to extract a hostage or high value prisoner. Law enforcement has to do this when they effect an arrest on a dangerous suspect. As a civilian, many of the same principles may apply if there is a suspicious noise in your exterior garage.

This course combines elements of small squad tactics, urban assault, and close quarters battle (cqb). While it impossible to teach a student how to be proficient in these disciplines in a 2 day course, the teamwork, communication, and decision making in chaos scenarios is useful in a wide variety of everyday events.

Equipment Required:

CO2 / Green-Gas/Electric powered airsoft rifle

1,000 rounds of 6mm airsoft rounds and sufficient CO2 cartridges/gas/batteries depending on your platform

Airsoft face mask / Goggles

Throat protection (a scarf is fine)

This course will have a force-on-force aspect utilizing airsoft rifles. We will have rifles, ammunition, gas, and limited safety equipment available to rent for the course if you do not have your own equipment. It is HIGHLY recommended you buy your own mask prior to the course (we can send you recommendations)

Prerequisites:

None. Small Unit Tactics and CQB will be highly useful but not required

Note:

This course is fast-paced with a lot of material covered in a short period of time. Expect to be frustrated and always feeling like you are behind the curve. This course is specifically designed to challenge you in the middle of chaos.

This course will run until approximately 6:30pm on Saturday, and will conclude approximately 4pm Sunday

Open to ages 16+ with parent in attendance

About This Course:

Tactical Medicine is based off the Department of Defense's Tactical Combat Casualty Care (TCCC). TECC has been modified in 2023 to be more applicable to students working in the Continental United States in Civilian Settings. This is a demanding course where students will learn skills and knowledge to help prevent the loss of life while in a high threat environment. The skills learned will be equally applicable for self-aid, or in aid of others. This is not a first aid course. This course deals with life threatening injuries due to traumatic injuries. Students will learn to operate in austere conditions, with limited equipment and limited access to higher trained medical personnel. This course will also deal with situations where transport to hospitals may be delayed.

This course will go deep into the use of the IFAK equipment. Specials skills will include medical assessment, commercial and improvised Tourniquet application in a timely manner, wound packing including the use of pressure points, NPA use and insertion, and patient movement including drags and carries. Students will learn to deal with stress inducing situations including missing or broken equipment and combative patients.

This course is a mix of lecture and field drills. This course is moderately physical in nature, and students should expect plenty of movement including lifting and running.

Since this is a TECC course, students will learn surgical airways, meds/fluids, and needle decompressions. Some skills taught may or may not be applicable based on your current credentials. It is the students responsibility to know if the skills taught are covered under their current certification level and local protocols.

Equipment required:

All equipment will be provided. Come dressed such that you can get on the ground.

Prerequisites:

Students should have attended the Stop Their Bleeding, Keep Them Breathing, but it is not required.

About This Course:

This course is part 2 of the Sidney Reilly Experience. You do NOT have to have attended part 1 prior (this is a standalone course)

Situational Awareness will only get you so far. How do you know if someone is following you, or has identified you as a target for their criminal activity? Criminals will often employ surveillance to determine if you are someone they want to attack, and if so, when you are at your most vulnerable. Knowing how to detect and evade surveillance could be the key to avoiding becoming a victim

In order to properly avoid surveillance, you need to know how to conduct surveillance. This course will also cover the proper techniques in vehicles and on foot.

This course directly relates to our counter-kidnapping course and is a required prerequisite.

This course is extremely helpful for anyone planning on travelling, or for anyone who has reason to believe they may be targeted domestically.

This course will cover the following topics:

Surveillance Terminology
Surveillance Types and Examples
Pre-Planning and the Initial Surveillance Phase
Counter Surveillance Tactics and Considerations
Surveillance Detection Routes
Surveillance Detection Points
Vehicle Demeanors and Vulnerabilities
Foot Demeanors and Vulnerabilities

While this series is labeled as a "Spy" series, the lessons taught are directly applicable for all people in their daily life.

Reduce the potential for criminal activity against yourself and/or your family
Enhance your knowledge and capabilities for detecting and reacting to surveillance activities
Enhance self-confidence by sensitizing you to skills and procedures to uncover surveillance and warn of targeting activity.

Due to the nature of this course all individuals will be subject to a criminal background check.

Additional Courses in this Series Include:

Course Description:

Have you taken our Defensive Handgun Level 1 and ready for a fast-paced day to take your skills to the next level?

Research and our own experience in our Force-on-Force classes show one of the most common injuries in a fight are injuries to the hands. If you take one of your hands out of the fight, can you still properly operate your weapon?

This course will take the skills you learned about drawing your weapon, reloading, and clearing malfunctions, and force you to do all these things with one hand out of play. In addition, we will work on drawing from compromised positions and introduce you to the concepts of reactionary shooting (shooting through the draw without a sight picture).

In addition, this course will combine Moving & Shooting skills, where you will learn how to effectively shoot while moving.

Standing still in a gunfight will get you killed. You are either pressing the attack, retreating, moving toward cover, or moving toward an objective. Being able to manipulate your weapon one handed, weak handed, and while moving are vital to your success. This course will make extensive use of footwork, weapon control, and shot placement while on the move.

Equipment Required:

Semi-Automatic Handgun
Holster (NO Serpa Holsters due to insurance regulations)
3 Magazines
Magazine carry method
Approximately 350 rounds of ammunition
Eye and Ear protection

Prerequisites:

Defensive Handgun Level 1.

If you have attended a defensive handgun course at another facility where you are familiar with drawing from a holster and clearing all malfunctions you will be accepted.

About This Course:

Active Shooter Situations can happen anywhere. Schools, Malls or Nightclubs.

Police will respond, but in the meantime how many deaths will occur? If your child, spouse, or loved one is in the path of gunfire, will you respond to stop the killing?

Having the will to confront the shooter is one thing, but doing so in a way that you prevent innocent deaths, including your own takes a specific skill set. Knowing what to do when law enforcement does arrive is vital. The 540 degree principal, threshold evaluation, movement toward threat, and friendly link-up are just some of the skills you will learn in this training.

We will start with an understanding of where these events might occur, how to respond, and end with force-on-force drills to let you practice each skill.

If you are a CCW holder and routinely carry your weapon, this course is a "must attend" for you.

If you are a first responder, this course will give you valuable insights in how to respond yourself if you are off-duty.

Fully applicable for Civilians, Fire Fighters, LEO, and EMS.

If you are someone who thinks it is as easy as just shooting the bad guy, you definitely need to come to this course.

If you think you will always get shot by the police in this situation, you definitely need to come to this course.

Equipment Required:

No live fire ammunition required. All force-on-force equipment will be provided

Prerequisites:

None

This course will run from 10-5 on Saturday and 10-4 on Sunday. If you are interested in lodging at discounted rates, contact us for details.
