SAFE For Professionals

WHAT is S.A.F.E. for Professionals ?

  S.A.F.E. for professionals is a 3 module training program that teaches adults and professionals how to minimize conflict in their lives.  This is a program that deals with real life issues and how to handle them appropriately.  The program can be geared towards specific businesses and their needs as well as law enforcement and other first responders. 

Everything from being more aware to protecting yourself or your loved ones is covered.  You will learn how to use warrior secrets to become successful on the street as well as in the boardroom.


"I am a 28 year career police officer, the last 27 years being with the Sycamore Police Department.  I am currently of the rank of Police Lieutenant. I am also a seventh degree black belt in Isshin-Ryu style karate and have studied various forms of martial arts over the past thirty years.  I have studied and been certified in various police defensive tactics and public self-defense tactics and strategies including serving as a D.A.R.E. officer, R.A.D. Kids instructor (Resisting Aggression Defensively) and a member of American Woman’s Self Defense Association. I am a board member of my community’s womans violence prevention center SAFE PASSAGE.   I am a member of ILEETA (International Law Enforcement and Educators Training Association).  I have taught police officers, children, senior citizens, and women’s self-defense and community safety awareness classes.

 

With that said, over a year ago I observed a demonstration by Mr. Eichenberg and students of S.A.F.E. in Naperville, IL.  I became hooked. This is why:  In all my experiences and training I have found Warrior's Edge and S.A.F.E. to be first rate programs, that teach life skills through the martial ways.  The curriculum and manner of instruction is second to none. I would recommend this professional training to anyone interested in not just surviving, but in thriving in today’s environment.   The classes are for children, teens, college students, women, executives-- anyone, who is interested in preparing to win tomorrow’s challenges.  I strongly encourage my fellow area law enforcement professionals to seek out this training  and find out for themselves, as I am, how their skills can be sharpened and their individual “potential unleashed” through this proven way of self-mastery."
