Self & Home Defence is a practical one-day course designed for civilians who want realistic, legally grounded skills for protecting themselves and their families. No military fantasy — just evidence-based techniques that work for ordinary people in ordinary environments.
You will cover threat awareness, pre-attack indicators, de-escalation, defensive use of a firearm at close range, and the legal framework for self-defence in Poland and the EU. Both armed and unarmed elements are included.
