The Police Survival and Self Defense Institute (PSDI) was established many years ago under the historic United States Karate Association. Many Senior Law-Enforcement instructors in the United States and abroad were trained and certified under PSDI.
Personnel from the Anti-Terrorists Units, Secret Service, FBI, CID, Interpol, Air Marshals, Police and Sheriffs departments, State Departments – State and Nations along with many other restricted agencies have trained under PSDI.
Through the years, training and basic operations have continued, but PSDI really did not pursue any special activities for some time because it had reached its national goal in most states of the Union — the formation of government Peace Officer Training Councils with sound standard operation procedures.
After the 9/11 tragedy, PSDI has moved to assist security efforts, to provide correct and necessary training for the general public and to once again commence on and advise various agencies on sound operational techniques. The Police Survival and Defense Insititute has a special training program specifically designed for needs of law enforcement, first responders and other related government agencies.
Our Taiho-Jutsu programs are tactical systems that provide comprehensive abilities that will not conflict with standard departmental regulations.
