SUMMARY:OC Spray and Street Encounter Skills (Chuck Haggard)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]CSA is excited to welcome Chuck Haggard of Agile Training and Consulting for three separate classes over the course of one weekend in July. This Friday night class starts off the weekend and introduces attendees to simple techniques for avoiding crime and victimization. Chuck is nationally renown for his decades of experience with defensive use of oleoresin capsicum (O.C. spray or pepper spray). He designed this course for private citizens who want to have other tools in their tool chest besides guns.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nFrom Chuck Haggard:\nIn this three-hour class\, will we will be covering ways to effectively use OC spray\, how to select a quality product\, which spray to choose for YOUR needs\, and techniques to maximize OC’s effect. I’ll also discuss recognizing pre-criminal assault behavior\, avoiding being a victim\, and the “MUC” (Managing Unknown Contacts) paradigm (popularized by Craig Douglas of ShivWorks). \nThis class is great for people who do not carry a gun regularly or for those who just want to have mid-level defensive options that fall somewhere “between a harsh word and a gun” (h/t to Tamara Keel of View from the Porch). Other topics include non-lethal-versus-lethal-force decision making and home defense tools besides firearms (excellent information for teens\, college students\, or anyone who lives in a gun-free household).[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Guest Instructor Chuck Haggard” tab_id=”chuck-haggard”][vc_column_text]Chuck Haggard has been active in private defensive training throughout his long career in urban law enforcement.

SUMMARY:OC Spray and Street Encounter Skills (Chuck Haggard)
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]CSA is excited to welcome Chuck Haggard of Agile Training and Consulting for three separate classes over the course of one weekend in July. This Friday night class starts off the weekend and introduces attendees to simple techniques for avoiding crime and victimization. Chuck is nationally renown for his decades of experience with defensive use of oleoresin capsicum (O.C. spray or pepper spray). He designed this course for private citizens who want to have other tools in their tool chest besides guns.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nFrom Chuck Haggard:\nIn this three-hour class\, will we will be covering ways to effectively use OC spray\, how to select a quality product\, which spray to choose for YOUR needs\, and techniques to maximize OC’s effect. I’ll also discuss recognizing pre-criminal assault behavior\, avoiding being a victim\, and the “MUC” (Managing Unknown Contacts) paradigm (popularized by Craig Douglas of ShivWorks). \nThis class is great for people who do not carry a gun regularly or for those who just want to have mid-level defensive options that fall somewhere “between a harsh word and a gun” (h/t to Tamara Keel of View from the Porch). Other topics include non-lethal-versus-lethal-force decision making and home defense tools besides firearms (excellent information for teens\, college students\, or anyone who lives in a gun-free household).[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Guest Instructor Chuck Haggard” tab_id=”chuck-haggard”][vc_column_text]Chuck Haggard has been active in private defensive training throughout his long career in urban law enforcement.
