Course Objective
We know that training and testing our agility skills is essential for Law Enforcement Officers due to the nature of encounters on the job. Agility is a routinely trained fitness that is essential for future success in every shift and critical incident worked. This training block involves changing direction quickly and intentionally while instructed in a combative environment. Changing direction safely, efficiently, and quickly could save your life, your coworkers, or a citizen’s life. This 8-hour program has been designed to provide students with encounters that require applying (or not applying) use of force in accordance with federal and state laws and Department policy in scenario-based training while implementing agility-based drills. The class will be broken down to five topics: Lateral Movement, Mobility, Striking, Weapon Retention, and Grappling.
