Personal Safety

During this half day session we will achieve learning by discussion, demonstration and the use of soft anchoring techniques (similar to t'ai chi) to embed techniques. This works really well as a one day event in conjunction with our Personal Safety package.

This package has been described as much of a team building event as a learning experience.
