Congratulations officers for completing our intensive two day Overcoming Size Differences for Female Enforcers. Officers from IA and SD attended and successfully completed the program. The instructors were extremely impressed by the dedication and focus demonstrated by the class. Below is what the attending students had to say.

Please assess how this course met your overall expectations.

Amazing course!
This course went above and beyond!
Awesome and challenged me.
I didn’t expect as much in the classroom portion but it was beneficial.
I got more out of it than expected.
This course was great and met my expectations.
I have had several DT classes in my 10 year tenure and none of them were as well taught as this was!
I heard he was good but it exceeded my expectations.
Was fast paced even when things were in review I learned something new.
I wish I could take this course twice a year.
Great classroom and hands on training.
The combatives taught were with the smaller officer in mind. This will help me better train my female officers.
This course surpassed my expectations and gave me a lot of confidence.
It completely exceeded my expectations.
Would have liked a few more moves directed toward smaller stature.
I learned how to use a smaller stature when faced against larger suspects.

Please assess the instructors of this program. ( Lt. Toni Weinbeck and Det. Josh Seifert)

Toni and Josh are incredible! So much knowledge and generally awesome bad ass.
Kept it real and made sure student was getting the moves down, both did a great job.
Both absolutely amazing. Great ways to relate everything too real life situation.
The instructors showed great knowledge.
Both explained everything very well, when they noticed not everyone was on track they slow downed. More practice for the ones who were slow and extra practice for the ones who weren’t.
Extremely knowledgeable very personable, explained everything very well. Best instructors I have ever had.
Very helpful, demonstrations were slower and easy to understand so that I could feel comfortable going at full speed with all steps explained answers to questions thoroughly.
Top level instructors. I look forward to taking additional LOCKUP class.
Both instructors were very knowledgeable. Always willing to teach in very helpful. Breaking it down doing stuff one at a time made it seem like they really cared.
Both were fantastic and had real world experience.
You both were awesome, I wish it was longer class so we could learn even more skills.

This two day course is designed to address violent encounters dealing with suspects of larger stature. When attempting control larger suspects, size and strength differentials necessitate combat strategies less reliant on pure upper body strength. The concepts and techniques can be utilized by any officer addressing a larger suspect. The days are hands-on and mentally challenging. Officers train and drill wearing vest, gun belt and gear because anything else makes no sense.
