K Street Group now has four Certified Taser Instructors on its faculty. This allows for multiple courses to be offered every week at various times, making it extremely convenient for anyone to attend. The course is three hours in duration and includes topics such as taser safety, taser operation, use of force continuum, personal self-defense, and dynamic situational awareness. Under no conditions will any student be used to demonstrate the effectiveness of deploying a taser— conductive targets will be used instead to simulate a real-life situation. Upon successful completion of the course, the student will be able to safely carry a taser for self defense purposes only in New Jersey or New York. In addition, K Street Group is an authorized reseller of Taser products and can assist the student with their purchase options. The 2022 courses start on January 12 and continue through March 26. Contact The K Street Group now to learn more about the Taser training course or go to our website at: www.KStreetGroupSecurity.com, click the Academy page and scroll down to the TASER tab to register. Seating will be limited and the first 50 students to register will receive a complimentary TASER holster! Now is the time to take control of your personal self defense.
