Congratulations IBDD Instructor Graduates! This hidden page is just for you! Please do not share this with anyone. You have EARNED the right to this page and it's information through hard work, time away from family, the expense and the travel! Thank you for training with us and we are here for you so ask questions! 

Save this QR for easy access to this page.

When teaching, please follow our IBDD "The Class" requirements and keep the spirit of IBDD intact while representing our IBDD learning system. 

Please go over the 9 "decisions" PLUS Reactionary Zones 5x7 Postcard. Please discuss each option, use the Image Cards as their visual cue GO SIGN, and the other "meat and potatoes" on IBDD. When you follow these basic guidelines, then no matter where you are located, IBDD "The Class" will be similar across the country. 

Outside of our basic requirements, each IBDD Certified Instructor can run your class based on your own personal preferences, experiences and education. We love that some IBDD Certified Instructors will be ADDING IBDD's learning system to your existing classes and some will be building custom classes, and NOT running "The Class" like some other IBDD Certified Instructors, BUT when teaching, they will keep the spirit of IBDD intact and will represent our IBDD learning system.

Spread your wings and FLY! Be unique and surpass our expectations so we can attend one of your classes and politely STEAL your ideas! Bahahahah! Kidding, kind-of! GET AFTER IT!


I would like to add one more thing before we move on. I would like to thank my husband Brian Hill and my dear friend Claude Werner for helping me bring IBDD to life! They both played very important roles, and still do. Brian is the front man, the genius, and the best IBDDIC Coach EVER. Claude motivated me to think deeper, helped me make tough decisions and I proudly placed his name on our IBDDIC OPTION CARDS. I also want to thank Gary Klein, Force Science Institute, Steve Tarani, Psychology Today, Gavin de Becker, William Aprill, Chuck Haggard, Craig Douglas, John Murphy, John Correia, Greg Ellifritz, Andrew Branca, Massad Ayoob, Marty Hayes, and SOOOOO many more outstanding people for putting out excellent information. You all have played a huge part in creating IBDD, have made a positive impact in the self defense community and are appreciated more than you know. 
Shelley

                                   MORE TO COME!

We have 6 (six) Continuing Education ONLINE Options:

#1. Private Lessons with Shelley via ZOOM

Picture
Shelley and Brian BOTH offer 1 hour and 2 hour ZOOM lessons for our IBDD instructor graduates. Please make note that our hourly prices are not the same.
*Need a bit of help?
*Want some clarification?
*Want to run us through a few scenarios or vice versa?
*Got a awesome idea and want feedback?
WE ARE HERE FOR YOU!


#2. Reactionary Zones 3 Hour Online Clinic via ZOOM

Picture
Reactionary Zones Definition of Success: To understand more about pairing the decisional process with the lack of time and managing space.

People have a hard time managing distances so let's work on understanding, seeing and believing.

We see people making the same self protection decisions at 25 ft, 12 ft and 6ft so we wanted to offer this class to understand how fast violence happens, limited choices based on distance, and making the BEST decision possible based on the space and time available.

If you are an IBCC Certified Instructor and have attended RZ via ZOOM within 6 months of your IBDDI certification or anytime after, then you MAY use some of the RZ slides in your IBDD The Class program. Please make note that you are certified to add RZ info. to your IBDD "The Class" but NOT to teach RZ outright. Please refer them to me for that. Thank you!



#3. Interrupt the Attack Cycle 3 Hour Online Clinic via ZOOM

Picture
Interrupt The Attack Cycle Definition of Success: To recognize, interpret a combination of behavioral and physiological cues that indicate the probability of an assault and then interrupt the attack cycle to deselect yourself. 

This clinic is to offer you nuggets about PRE-VIOLENCE INDICATORS, AVOIDANCE, DESELECTION & recognizing DISTANCES quickly to make the BEST decision based on the space & time available. This is a completely separate online presentation from Reactionary Zones with NEW information and only a couple slides that "cross over".  TAKE THIS COURSE! 

Not everyone learns, retains, and recalls information the same so I designed this class to appeal to the most common learning styles. I will use words on slides, verbal communication, interaction and images to help you retain as much information as possible. You see, our brains are NOT necessarily word processors, they are mainly IMAGE processors.

Our focus during this class will be on the ability to interpret a single act or a combination of behavioral and physiological cues that indicate the probability of a crime or an attack, we will discuss the criminal's mindset and motives, and the importance of preparation. We will dive into c
ritical thinking, understanding proximics and reactionary zones, and talk about the importance of intuition. We will save plenty of time for you to practice with the use of visual aids to test your ability to recognize and  interpret WHAT YOU ARE SEEING. Don't worry, we also want to hear how you would INTERRUPT the attack cycle to DESELECT yourself. 


#4. Image Based Decisional Drills "The ONLINE Class" via ZOOM

Picture
Image Based Decisional Drills Definition of Success: To quickly make ONE good FIRST decision based on visual stimuli & instantly act on it. Be confident, decisive, efficient, & explosive.Image Based Decisional Drills is a well thought out dry practice or live fire exercise with a deck of 21 Image Cards (with and without additional "tools") that provide IMAGES that will help you to recognize danger and to make smart decisions ahead of time. Our image based learning system is another beneficial step on your way to making good decisions quickly.

Image Based Decisional Drills "The ONLINE Class" will help teach you to you access the situation using a mental simulation for a plausible course of action, allowing you to evaluate the strengths and weaknesses of the strategies in the content of the scenario. You may experience Altered Perceptions, like Auditory Exclusion, Stalling, Embellishment and more. What a wonderful gift of knowledge, to KNOW that is possible and learn from it.
Decisions are more important than techniques and our goal in "The ONLINE Class" is to supply an avenue to learn good decision and provide some simple, yet very effective techniques. You have 3 main training/practice options.


  • IBDDCI, just want to more practice with a coach available? COME ON! 
  • Attended one (or both) of my other online classes (Reactionary Zones and Interrupt the Attack Cycle) and want more DEPTH? COME ON! 
  • Read my articles published in Shooting Illustrated? COME ON! 
  • If you choose to join Shelley, it is MANDATORY that each IBDD certified instructor attending have their Image Based Decisional Drills KIT or NO-KIT with them because you WILL TRAIN with your Image Based Decisional Drills KIT or NO-KIT during the ZOOM class. Only exception is if several people in your household are attending at once.

#5. Image Based Decisional Drills "Alumni Clinic" via ZOOM

Picture
Skills are perishable so continuing your education is very beneficial. We are happy you have come back for more training at IBDD Alumni Clinic. Seeing you return means that you are interested in getting more practice in  filling in the gap in learning how to make decisions using images to provoke a response, decide which TOOL to use, and then ACT on that decision.

As you may have learned from your previous training, from the time that a bad guy chooses you, you will have a very limited amount of time to make a decision and distance management is very important. THEY choose how and when so your actions need to be confident, quick and decisive.


You probably have a deeper understanding on how Recognition -prime decision (RPD) helps people make quick, effective decisions when faced with complex situations. You, the decision maker, is assumed to generate a possible course of action, compare it to the constraints imposed by the situation, and select the first course of action that is not rejected.

These "ALUMNI CLINICS" will have an "OPTIONS" review portion at the beginning of class, we will have no scheduled breaks and I have sectioned off a  bit more time to discuss more of the"WHYs" in depth.

We invite you to practice with your TRAINING firearm replica ON BODY (in a holster or in pants line) or OFF BODY CARRY (in a designated off body holster pocket). We also encourage you to place your INERT pepper spray, flashlight, and PROP phone ON BODY or OFF BODY CARRY. Carry a Jack or Sap? Practice with it. Carry an edged weapon? Get a  TRAINING knife and lets practice with it.  Now lets  get some reps in!

Be prepared for fast paced drills, more "one on one" time, a stronger focus on "Altered Perceptions", and cognitive stacking decisions after your FIRST GOOD DECISION.

I STRONGLY encourage you to attend my 2 other online classes called Reactionary Zones and Interrupt the Attack Cycle. I also encourage you to visit our Recommendations Page and to consider training with a SIRT Training Pistol (use promo code TCCSIRT for 10% off) during practice. Immediate feedback is very valuable.

If you are your first responder, then you are responsible for a wide array of skill sets. Seeing, recognizing, and believing danger is the first task. Having a plan for avoidance, deselection and escalation is second. If these fail, the fight is on, and it must be won. From the time that a bad guy chooses you, you will have a very limited amount of time to make a decision. THEY choose how and when. Your actions need to be confident, quick and decisive.

I write a monthly artical for Shooting Illustrated that focuses on "everything but the gun". This is an excellent way to gain depth focusing on "decisions."
