Washington, D.C. – August 9, 2025 – The Center for Violence Prevention and Self-Defense (CVPSD), a national leader in evidence-based self-defense and violence prevention education, announces the successful completion of a specialized compliance training program focused on redirection and control tactics for personnel of a federal agency in Washington, D.C. The training, which took place over a four day period, was designed to equip government personnel with advanced verbal and physical strategies to safely manage and de-escalate confrontational situations.

The intensive training, conducted from August 4-8, 2025, was designed to equip federal agency staff with advanced skills in de-escalation, redirection, and control techniques to manage high-risk situations effectively and safely.
The program emphasized practical, evidence-based strategies for threat assessment, non-lethal intervention, and injury prevention, tailored to the unique operational needs of the federal agency.
The curriculum also focused on a blend of psychological principles and practical, non-lethal techniques. Participants learned to identify pre-attack indicators, use verbal redirection to de-escalate tense encounters, and apply safe control tactics when physical intervention becomes necessary. This training is part of a broader initiative by the federal agency to enhance the safety of its staff and the public it serves.
“This training represents CVPSD’s commitment to empowering law enforcement and federal personnel with the tools to handle challenging encounters while prioritizing safety and professionalism,” said [Your Name], Executive Director of CVPSD. “We are honored to partner with federal agencies in Washington, D.C., to enhance their operational readiness and promote safer outcomes for both staff and the communities they serve.
