We had the privilege of working with the employees at Hermann Park, who interact with the public every day while also navigating situations that may involve individuals who are not safe or unable to comply with park policies.
Our session focused on customized de-escalation approaches for their environment and, only when necessary, how to respond physically to disengage and protect personal safety. The goal: empower staff to do their jobs well while protecting themselves.
This was the first of three sessions we’ll be providing for their team- if the next groups are anything like this one, we know the engagement and participation will be just as great.
At Silverback Self Defense, we work with organizations to address their unique, real-world safety challenges—building practical communication skills, de-escalation confidence, and hands-on defensive responses specifically for the environments their employees work in.
