EZ Defense Is The Best Self Defense
Training Available!


EZDefense is a highly specialized personal protection program. The curriculum of EZDefense is unique. The classes are taught with a dual emphasis on emotional support and physical skills.  

 All classes are taught by a specially trained female / male team of instructors. Our instructors are trained in dealing with the physical and emotional process of an escalating confrontation.   

All self-defense training is not the same; some courses can do more harm than good. Training which focuses on the physical aspects and neglects psychological and socialization issues may actually undermine the participant's confidence in using their defense skills. EZDefense Programs provide strong psychological support for students as a part of the curriculum.  

The EZDefense training experience: EZDefense training takes place in a supportive, non-competitive environment with the emphasis on channeling your feelings into power. Under the guidance of our trained instructors you will learn techniques for avoidance, de-escalation and, when required, confrontation.  

 FEATURES OF EZDEFENSE 
 

• EZDefense builds on an individuals personal strengths.
•  EZDefense builds on the natural ability a person already has to defend themself.
• EZDefense is a step-by-step process of developing skills and confidence through class success. By the end of the course, students have repeatedly used their skills to assess danger, set boundaries, and respond effectively to verbal and physical aggression.
• EZDefense allows each student to practice using their skills in simulated attack scenarios. Because the mock assailant is specially trained and wears heavily padded armor, the students can deliver full force strikes.
• EZDefense offers a variety of progressive learning programs ranging from non-contact, one day classes to intense multi-week programs.

EZ Defense Law Enforcement Defensive Tactics 

• The techniques in this class are designed to save an officer from serious injury or death when the use of a firearm is impractical or unavailable. This is not a subject force control class.   
• The techniques being taught are simple and effective.  The officers will retain these techniques.   
• These classes afford an opportunity to train in an environment that is as realistic as possible.    
• We are the trained and practiced experts in providing a realistic training environment and giving appropriate resistance and feedback. This develops a winning mindset, the participant’s brain tells them they can survive and overcome.

 Easy to learn, easy to retain and easy to use.   
 

Without knowing what this training is like it is impossible to understand the profound impact we have made upon the officers we have worked with. This training is what patrol officers need to give them an edge in an all out physical confrontation. Here are some quotes from officers who have participated in the EZ Defense Law Enforcement Tactical Defense classes:  

Why should you choose EZ Defense West Michigan as instructors for your training?   

We understand the generally accepted norm and the desire to use your own personnel to instruct your tactical training. However, we would like to point out several, very good, reasons why outsourcing this training to us is a more practical approach:    

            This training requires the use of a 
            suit, specifically designed for the
            class. These suits are somewhat
            custom in nature and will fit only
            individuals of identical sizes (height,
            weight, build, head size, etc.). By 
             using us and our equipment you
             save this capital investment.   

The strenuous nature of teaching in the suit requires a high degree of fitness as well as specialized training. This saves countless training hours and hundreds of training dollars.  

Instructor training is counter productive to defensive tactic training as it is approached from the reverse angle. Why would you want an officer trained to be a “good” opponent and not a winner in a confrontation? Let us accept the role as losers.  
 

Injuries are somewhat common to the instructors. While typically not serious in nature, many of these injuries would hinder the officer in the performance of their regular duties. You save your people to do their job by letting us do ours. What would happen if your training instructor received an injury of a serious nature?   
 

The more experienced the instructor is in working in the suit the better able he is to provide the appropriate resistance and feedback. We teach often and are always practiced; this would be very hard for an instructor teaching only one, two or three times a year.
