D.U.S.T. INTRODUCTION

We specialize in teaching civilians and law enforcement professionals how to reduce opportunity for prosecution and lawsuits that can result from avoidable injuries and deaths. Violence is the enemy of humanity, and lack of known options is the foundation of violence! Our training is designed to create de-escalation through non-adversarial interactions and non-violent outcomes

Detroit Urban Survival Training specializes in non-violent methods of managing threats by providing educational services for individuals, corporations, communities, civilians, military and police. Our tactics and strategies enable participants to deter violence through body language projection, de-escalation, and positive inspirational communication. Preventive Threat Management (PTM) is the name of the training system taught at the Detroit Urban Survival Training Centers. 

Practitioners learn how to properly read body language to distinguish real threats from false threats. This enables practitioners to preemptively detect violent intentions of people prior to an aggressor’s actions and enables them with the ability to avoid taking inappropriate actions leading to false positives. Tactical Psychology, law, and skills are incorporated in our training, so practitioners can manage all levels of threats.  

PTM specifically teaches how to use body language projection and incorporates body language interpretation to enable practitioners with the ability to discern overt, and covert indicators of potential violent intentions. PTM System incorporates understanding civilian legal articulation of threats related to self-defense, civil and criminal liability pre, during, and post conflict conditions. 

PTM tactical skills training component empowers practitioners with the ability to physically escape, control or immobilize violent individuals within three movements, or less. PTM teaches how to avoid unnecessary injury from impact or excessive force.  

PTM is based on the Anti-Kill Philosophy. The Anti-Kill Philosophy is the belief that you should always seek a way to avoid killing people under ALL threat conditions! 

Preventive Threat Management training program is specifically designed to empower practitioners to inspire positive actions to avoid adversarial interactions, and enable practitioners to create by design, non-violent outcomes at home, school or in the workplace.
