About Us

Teaching, security management, and criminology are by definition, multi-disciplinary studies as well illustrated by the Periodic Table of Security created by IFSEC Global. This broad work experience and extensive education and training provide a useful cross-fertilization of skills and knowledge with many insights that cannot be gained from expertise in any one discipline alone.

 

However, we do not stop with academic theory, but, combine it with practical and functional education and training in personal protection (self-defence, personal security & risk management) skills, physical fitness, strength, and mobility (Parkour) training. These are, or can be integrated to create truly innovative and  Dynamic Education and Physical Training programmes. 

​

As it is below, so it is above

​

Cross-disciplinary study has both horizontal and vertical dimensions. The ability to link and present the various skills and disciplines within a coherent framework guided by consistent principles and concepts at all levels of application, no matter the context, is an invaluable skill that enhances non-linear (out of the box) thinking. Good critical thinking is more than just criticising or trying to disprove a hypothesis. It is about reflective, analytical, diagnostic and synergistic mind skills and tools.

​

The training provides benefits far beyond the traditional borders of basic physical education or security provision, such as staff morale and effectiveness (i.e. savings in operating costs and labour turnover), customer satisfaction and third-party security / public relations, where customers and other associates or affected persons are concerned. 

​

Backed by a philosophy of continuous learning, research, and development, this holistic approach allows us to bridge the gap between knowledge silos for a truly borderless learning experience, yet ease and speed your learning with experiential learning programmes tailored to your needs.
