Flagship event

Agent safety & self-defense seminar

Created by Brett, a Pedro Sauer black belt, for agents who walk into empty houses with strangers. Situational awareness, pre-showing screening, and hands-on technique that works in a hallway, not a dojo.

Held quarterly, free, and open to any brokerage. We'll also run it privately for your office.
