About The Protector level
Parents are called to protect their children.
Husbands are called to protect their wives.
Wives are called to protect their husbands.
But what does it mean to protect?
The word protect stems from the Latin portmanteau protego—pro (to advocate or build) and tecto (a roof or wall). Literally and figuratively, combatives training allows you to effectively convert your body into a temporary wall and build a roof over your loved ones during an attack.
Both men and women can benefit immensely from this training. Completion of the entire training course requires committing three hours every first and third Tuesday of every month until January 2022—that’s 20 workshop sessions.
Upon successful completion, you will earn The Protector certificate from Salvo Combatives and receive a 10% off our Close Protection training series.

FAQ
Participants should wear comfortable clothing that allows freedom of movement. Athletic clothing is fine, as is jeans and a t-shirt/sweatshirt or similar outfit. Clothes and shoes should be clean, nails trimmed, and personal hygiene attended to.
Participants do not need to bring any training equipment-all gear and training supplements will be provided by the instructor and/or training facility.
Water, Gatorade, or some other form of hydration is a good idea.
Participants are not likely to need to eat during the workshop. We will be focusing our time on training. However, if you feel that you need to bring a snack in order to maintain focus, feel free to do so.
Since this is an introductory class, we will closely monitor the intensity level so that it is focused on learning the material. Fatigue is not the goal at this stage of training.
Estimated 200–300 calories will be burned in each workshop, but would differ depending upon the individual.
Participants will not be bringing weapons to the class, but the instructor will be open to discussing a wide variety of topics that are pertinent to the material being presented in the natural course of instruction. This could include, at some point, discussions about personal weapon selection.
Extensive measures will be in place to maintain safety. We monitor participant behavior throughout the course of training to minimize the risk of injury. However, all physical training is inherently risky to some degree. All reasonable steps to prevent injury will be taken, and any injury that does occur will be given immediate attention.
Home practice materials will be presented during each workshop.
Yes when relevant.
Participants must be at least 18 years of age. With regard to your child accompanying you to the workshop, keep in mind this is your time to focus on learning. If you feel that these lessons are pertinent based on maturity of your child, feel free to pass along your new knowledge at home.
Should I arrive early? Do you start exactly on time or do you wait 5-10 minutes before class begins?
We will start on time. With the vast amount of material covered in a short period, all three hours are necessary. If you arrive a little early (five–10 minutes), someone will be there to greet you.
You will receive directions on how to find the workshop. Emailed ticket include all needed info.
There will be time allotted for questions at the end of every session.
