This kind of training will just get you badly hurt,as your right to truly defend yourself or your life is suspended by taking level 2.

almost everything you learn in these classrooms is useless

Most of the techniques have been designed to work well in demonstrations and are incredibly "learnable" and easy to evidence apparent competence! There is no real self defence and nothing useful should you find yourself in a fight! Some of the light physical restraint and escorting techniques will work for semi compliaint people. A focus on team-based restraint should be the main thing, together with highly pressure tested knife defence techniques. Beyond that - you should invest in your own fitness, strength and CQC skills over many years, and make sure that you have a few guys who are of that calibre on any operational team to bridge the gap that the "new breed" of door supervisors has created!

I loved my SIA training but was said it was a fraud, beware! And always search the course you are attending, because you may pass it but not get the certificate.

4:38 so drunken 20 stone thugs only have right arms do they ? LMFAO

4:25 "an up and coming career" ? lmfao being a minimum paid security officer is not a career you clowntard.

2:`16 yeah protect life when being unarmed. this is utter bullshit.

Complete bollocks

This is absolute shite.a load of bollicks. All that so called training you are watching is crap. Try getting hold of a 16 stone guy high on coke by grabbing his wrist and see how far you get. If you can not right fight you will get seriously injured. Or worse end up dead. Ian from liverpool

Why is it that official courses seem to be a waste of time, yet a quick 5 minute youtube defence video (a good one like Lee Morrison) would benifit me far more. Do you need to be big to be a doorman. I'm not heavy but still feel i could handle myself

In all my years on the doors, I've yet to have anyone try to grab my wrist.

Well done Ahil

This training how to do the when kicks off how remove person out

I worked as a"doorman" for over ten years and started just before the whole S.i.a thing came to play. Now I think the key to being a good doorman is diplomacy and tact, but there are occasions where you have no choice to go down a physical route. The physical/conflict training in this video is absolutely laughable, wouldn't work in a real situation in the slightest.

These techniques are now outdated.

Bag of shite! It Don’t work .. 💩

I'm SIA BADGED. yOU'RE FUCKED

NOT an SIA approved company anymore I see...

Doing PI on Monday as the final day of the SIA course, so many of the comments here don't fill me with much confidence in it's real life application lol

If the " S I A " license gets me a job working doors and looking at women in short skirts all night then I'm all for it!!

I've done this type of training to deal with behaviours from those with severe autism. I can assure anyone that it does not work. You go with your own instinct at that moment in time, if it means not getting your arm bitten then you will try anything other than what you've been trained.

Been a doorman for 20 years, been attacked more times than I care to remember, but no one has ever grabbed my wrist. This is like Aikido without the hakamas. Total BS. If you’re a doorman and want to make it home in one piece, study boxing and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu. BJJ for restraining people, standing preferably. Boxing for when all else fails. Other than that, use your experience and wit. I find a sense of humour can go a long way in this game, shows people you don’t take yourself too seriously, people look at you as someone else doing their job as opposed to a “bouncer”

www.1sttrainingsolutions.co.uk/ offer the best security training

identity thiefs along with the pigs

I'm doing the course.The people attending they look way out of shape skinny uncapable of doing 10 push ups or very over weight...I being doing real martial arts all my life. this shit is garbage.

How hard are the exams

To be a door supervisor today you need the best possible training by trainers with decades of experience! Not only that they must be able to teach it's all well and good being an expert but, if you don't have the ability to embed your skills into others it's a problem. There are some on the door to today that have had 'fast buck' training and are at risk injuring themselves or others or with the law.

Is the exam easy?

Thanks for posting guys, the techniques appear to be based on Akido?

ive done door and festival work since the early 90,s the sia was introduced basickly to get rid of the residential hardmen with violent criminal backgrounds that worked the door with no training other than to smash your face in if they didnt like you, i saw this alot as i started security during these times, worked with so many of them, the sia wants to ensure a safer friendlier approach to customer care, people dont want to be terrified of the doormen, back in the day the public was , now we have to be nice and polite and try to ensure them a safe and happy time, though i will say the sia physical intervention training can and will get you hurt, its not realisticly based, a fight in real life isnt choreographed, and the locks used will not deter a big/ strong and very determined opponent, or someone with fighting knowledge, we should not forget however that most apponents will possibly be pissed out of their heads by time they kick off with us so they wont be as sharp or accurate with their hands but let me tell you that addrenaline is an amazing thing, so dont assume cos their drunk they wont have the capacity to knock you about, i am a 3 dan black belt at kickboxing and former instructor, im also very experienced in krav maga, this training has gotten me out of a number of nasty situations when shit really hits the fan, so heres a heads up to those wanting to do door work, dont just do the sia and think your ready, get some training in combat behind you just to help give you an edge, a martial art such as bjj or krav maga is recomended, but again only use if necessary, end of the night or day if it does come to blows then we,ve failed.

IV been on door for over 23 years and I did this course last year to keep myself up to date in my qualifications. But trust me the SIA course for doing door work is 99.9% a waste of time and money and the physical intervention part is a complete joke. The whole thing was obviously thought up by someone in an office who had never done door work before.

as if the club at the is Zanzibar Stockton.on.tees haha

doing my onw next week

I have been involved in conflict management and physical restraint for over 30 years .. I use to be an SIA trainer and stopped because I do not believe that the physical part of the course is adequate and does not prepare people to be competent to physically manage truly aggressive people. I refuse to teach it and give false hope. There is little to no pressure testing so what is the yard stick to measure if someone can manage another individual on their own in self defence or as a team. The law says staff need to be trained to be competent, Section 2 (2), Health & Safety at Work Act 1974 .. Passing a course like this does not make you that !!! Being trained this way will cause people to get injured at the first sign of trouble because they are brain washed to believing that they have the skill, knowledge and judgment to manage aggressive individuals. SIA need to revisit the PI element. Get this right give good people the proper skills to do the job correctly !!!

when you show up to do your sia course do they do a drug test?

Been at doors in Luton and have done some notoriously insane no go Venues on busy nights. You know when things about to kick off and sometimes it happens without any signs. 9/10 times your experience backed up by common sense will get you out of trouble and that 1 time you will have to resort to old school type conflict management. This sort of training provides students with artificial sense of security that they have what it takes to control and diffuse violent situation, in reality when the bell rings and you hear code red on the headset you see them become confused and looking lost. It's best to go through the course but not to rely on it to get you out of trouble, you spent time and learn but also safe guard your own safety.

love to see wrist grabs work against a non compliant 20 stone drunk. people skills an communication are great but you got to be able to back it up when the shit hits the fan, fact

Take your pick from Krav, Judo, Boxing or BJJ and fuck what the SIA say or want. None of it really works and most will get you seriously injured or killed against a pisshead hell-bent on chewing your nose off.

Its stupid courses like this that'll get people hurt.

it easy to find work with this qualification?

This crap is all about making money, leading ordinary people to believe that they can do extraordinary work. A defensive mindset will eventually get you injured or killed.

this guy looks like from job centre :D

I start my SIA training in two weeks i'm looking forward to it

I found that the on the job training I got was far more beneficial to me than anything the SIA taught me. Learn basic wrestling and either boxing or Muay Thai combined with all the 'dirty shit' and you are good to go. Hope you have a safe career boss.

All that hand on wrist stuff wont work mate. You get some pissed off drunk who lifts weights and has a roid issue and try and grab his wrist while he is frantic... I bet my ass you wont manage it. The best thing to learn is pre emptive strikes for blunt force trauma. Hit hard hit fast and hit first if the guy is too big to grapple with. Classroom teaching only brings you up to date on how the government want you to do things. Guys who dont work at 2am on a Sat night.

any fucker grabs my balls i will fucking kill them lol gloves are off i didnt think about cunts doing that! i have just started security and have just done V fest. i havent had my first proper incident yet and i came on here trying to get a sort of refresher because i cant quite remember what stage 4 is stage 1 is open palms stage 2 is hand on the back stage 3 is hand on wrist but i cant remember whats next...this video must be old this is completely different to how i was taught

in what world do you only put 1 guy out he has pals your only 1 man your going to get your ass kick doing this way lol

The training is inadequate for job, no one can have a weekend course can be trained to deal with intoxicated members of the public. When it comes to using the training the conscience will kick in and you will freeze. I've done aikido which is a martial art that is designed for getting out of a situation with without causing harm to the individual because aikido is all about redirecting the positive flow of energy coming from the person stepping towards you.

"And most of all, it has home office approval"..so its shite then!

I have been reading the comments, and I have to agree. It doesn't all work. And I should know, I'm an Instructor? I would like to point out though, that Maybo techniques is shite!!!!
