CDT: Non-Deadly Force Training

CDT - Compliance - Direction - Takedown. CDT is non-deadly force self-defense training. CDT can benefit anyone regardless of size, shape or gender.

CDT offers training for family protection, law enforcement, private security, workplace violence and school violence. Program classes include Skysafe, Stun and Run, Senior Safe and Know and Go "For Kids."

All courses are based on the theory that "It is better to know something and not need it, then need it and not know it."

Law Enforcement

When a law enforcement officer needs to utilize less-than-deadly force by means of empty handed tactics, that person must be able to do so quickly, skillfully, and with reduced risk and liability to all concerned. The longer the officer has to be engaged with a subject, the greater risk of losing the altercation or suffering injury or even death. Moreover, depending upon a subject's actions and the situation at hand, the officer may have to increase or decrease the amount of force employed. CDT techniques allow for necessary escalation and de-escalation of lawful force without causing serious or deadly injury. No other non-lethal training system can make this claim.


Private Security

The key to flawless security lies in the use of justified force measures. Since the laws are more stringent for security personnel and the liability much greater, these professionals need to get the most proficient training available, particularly to help ensure the safety of all parties concerned. The CDT System, because of its emphasis on empty handed non-deadly force, including third party protection, is the most versatile training tool for the security specialist.


Risk Management

Due to random, daily acts of violence that occur in society, professionals in all walks of life - CEO's, doctors, lawyers, medical personnel, educators, flight crews and many others - are using street proven CDT techniques that can keep them and the individuals around them safe, if and when justified force becomes necessary.

Acts of violence do occur on school campuses. In times of crisis, educators will need to respond immediately to prevent and minimize the possibility of injuries and tragedies. CDT techniques are easy to learn, very effective, and can be applied in the event of a crisis occurring on or near the school campus.


Family Protection

This innovative program, the first of its kind to ever be developed, focuses on training the entire family as a unit. Each family member is taught a different responsibility from distraction techniques to cover and evacuation procedures, when and if the need arises. Statistics prove that many acts of violence happen around children and CDT takes the approach that children are our most precious gift of all and this type of training emphasizes their safety at all costs via easy to learn sound, verbal, and movement drills.
