Phase I: Self-Protection
Professional Self-Protection Program

Canadian Use of Force Systems considers a first level of physical conflict response to be entirely "self-defense" in nature.  It is at this juncture that we also educate on basic psychological and legal self-protection considerations.

In a modern context, Canadian Use of Force Systems has specifically organized self-protection physical techniques into a category of pure "Self-Protection" tactics.  At the inception of Bill Underwood's work In the 1940's and 50's there was not as specific a delineation between self-protection techniques and compliance and control tactics designed to secure, maintain and escort any given subject.  The criteria of a Self-Protection technique is its functional aim to specifically stop an aggressive attack so as to open a window of escape for the defender.  In this context it is clear and ultimately very responsible to establish a category of Defensive Tactics that are simply designed to nullify an attack and to provide an escape option. 

In public or corporate training programs our PSP module represents the first or introductory level of psychological and physical skills training. 

PSP Programs provide instruction in the following:

"I believe wholeheartedly in Mr. Cressman's vision to reintroduce a solid skill set of Self-Protection skills to Use of Force Professionals.  It is a skill that is sorely lacking among many officers and would greatly assist in increasing the level of safety and efficiency on the job.  I highly encourage Law Enforcement professionals to take advantage of this training system."

S.M. Cst. Canadian Tactical Officer

"I have throughly enjoyed training with Canadian Use of Force Systems.  They provide a high-speed, professional training program that is highly effective and fantastic for women.  Easy and fun to learn, I would highly recommend it to any professional who would like to learn how to protect themselves in real life situations."

Laura Binetti, Canada's Top Female Bodybuilder
