Street Survival Class
Crime in the UK today is increasing and has become a major source of fear among members of the public. This is because innocent victims face a sudden threat to life, loss/damage to property resulting in a loss of control and an invasion of personal space. Street crime is an especially fear-inducing threat because of the context in which it is likely to occur—during someone’s everyday routine or activities.
Surviving street crime or mugging is not a straightforward matter. Knowing the exact survival process to follow will be complicated if all the dynamics of the situation have not been considered.
Our Street Survival class will break down and analyse the processes used by predators and give you the tools to become a hard target.
This class has been designed after over 45 years of experience living and working in South Africa.
Some of the topics covered:
- Grey-man
- Street Survival
- Basic Knife defence
- Becoming a hard target
- Self-defence techniques
- Setting yourself up for success
- Awareness
- Staying within the law, English Constitution
- Understanding Human behaviour

Self defence in the UK:
Common law (self defence)
The common law defence of self-defence applies where the defendant uses necessary, reasonable and proportionate force to defend themselves or another from imminent attack. It is a complete defence to all non-sexual offences involving the unlawful use of force (anything from battery to murder). Because the defence results in a complete acquittal, the courts have interpreted the defence in a restrictive way so as to avoid acquitting too easily. For example, the courts will not usually acquit the defendant just because he thought the force used was reasonable – whether or not the force used was reasonable will be objectively assessed by the jury and not simply according to what the defendant thought at the time.
A defendant is entitled to use reasonable force to protect himself, others for whom he is responsible and his property. … It must be reasonable.
— Beckford v The Queen [1988] AC 130[3]
Lord Morris in Palmer v R[4] stated the following about someone confronted by an intruder or defending himself against attack:
If there has been an attack so that defence is reasonably necessary, it will be recognised that a person defending himself cannot weigh to a nicety the exact measure of his defensive action. If the jury thought that in a moment of unexpected anguish a person attacked had only done what he honestly and instinctively thought necessary, that would be the most potent evidence that only reasonable defensive action had been taken…
