Movies and TV shows tend to show the life of a bodyguard as glamorous and exciting — always in their suits with sunglass on, talking frenetically on walkie-talkies and headphones. However, they ignore the more practical aspects of the job and what it entails. To work as a bodyguard, you will need rigorous training and strong theoretical knowledge. In this Bodyguard Training Guide course, we will provide the knowledge to make you a competent bodyguard.

Bodyguards, or as they are more professionally known, “CPOs”, are essentially personal security guards. They are often assigned to positions where they personally escort a VIP to a location or accompany them at all hours.

Bodyguard Training Guide typically includes physical fitness, martial arts, weapons training, and self-defence. In addition, to work as a bodyguard, you also need to be well-versed in the laws and regulations of the area you are working in. Moreover, you must also be familiar with the protocol for responding to different types of threats.
