With Confidence

Run • Hide • Fight training gives individuals and organizations the knowledge, mindset, and confidence to act decisively during an active threat situation.

When an active threat occurs, panic and confusion are natural reactions — but preparation changes everything.

Black River Defensive Solutions teaches this framework through interactive, scenario-based instruction that helps participants stay calm, make fast decisions, and protect themselves and

What You'll Learn

Run – Learn how to recognize escape routes, move quickly and safely, and guide others to safety.

Hide – Identify effective cover and concealment, fortify rooms, and maintain silence while awaiting law enforcement.

Fight – Last resort actions: how to disrupt, defend, and survive when confronted directly.

Communication & Coordination – Understand how to communicate effectively with coworkers, students, or parishioners during a crisis.

Law Enforcement Interaction – Know what to expect when responders arrive to ensure safety and cooperation.

In high-stress situations, people don’t rise to the occasion—they fall to their level of training. Practicing the Run • Hide • Fight response replaces panic with purpose. It builds confidence, reduces casualties, and allows individuals to act with clarity in the most critical moments. Our goal is to make sure every participant leaves knowing exactly what to do if the unthinkable happens.
