I was looking over the classes, and one of the things that I had a question about is, can you give an example of verbal conflict negotiation? Also for women I know shotting a shotgun is heavy, is shotting a rifle strenuous on you body, and if so what muscles should you work out to be prepared for the class?

Good afternoon Nikki,
Beyond the standard verbal challenges involved in commanding a potential threat to stop and back away, we cover the elements of gentle de-escalation. An example would be verbaljudo.com
Shooting a shotgun can be demanding as it is not only the weight but the recoil that you have to get acustom to.
A rifle on the other hand is considerably less demanding and the recoil is minimal.
In regards to exercises that would help both... lower back as you lean forward to help mitigate recoil, and shoulders as you raise both out in front of your body.
We look forward to seeing you back in class once normal operations resume.
