About this event

The best way to avoid injury from a fall, is prevention! But, sometimes we fall. The body has an automatic reflexive response that often leads to increased injuries, which are among the most common causes of emergency room visits. Learn a very simple very simple modification of this reaction. It is simple to learn and can be used in the flash of time that you have to respond. John Desmedt, retired Chief of Firearms, Protective Operations, and Physical Skills Training Branches of the U.S. Secret Service will lead this discussion. This will be a great skill to add to your safety toolkit!
