You don’t have to be a celebrity to be abducted or kidnapped, in fact anyone can be targeted as the victim of an express-kidnapping - one where, you are abducted and taken to a series of ATM’s to withdraw cash, before being left in some remote place, usually drugged etc. In 2013 Amy Lord, a South Boston resident was murdered after an express-kidnapping, so what may seem like a financially motivated crime can and may result in a homicide.
In this 90-minute seminar, you will learn about the differences between kidnappings, hostage takings, and abductions along with the criminal motivations behind them. You will learn how to make risk assessments as to the likelihood of being targeted, and how to lower/reduce your profile as a potential victim (target-hardening). You will learn physical techniques to deal with common scenarios, against both armed and unarmed assailants, and how to intervene on the behalf of others who you may see being abducted/kidnapped.
You will also be given an overview, as to how the authorities and security agencies respond and operate when dealing with hostage situations/scenarios, and how to act and behave if you find yourself in one.
The seminar will take place on Saturday 13th February from 11:30 AM – 1:00 PM. The price for this seminar is $99 (that includes a free signed copy of Gershon Ben Keren’s, critically acclaimed book, “Krav Maga – Real World Solutions to Real World Violence” to read some sample pages on Amazon, please click here), and will be held at our Charlestown Studio (free onsite parking), which is located at:
