About LBD Pro Training

Learn By Doing.

At LBD Pro Training, we firmly believe in the power of experiential learning. Our name stands as a testament to our philosophy: Learn By Doing. In a world increasingly reliant on theory, we’re proud to provide hands-on, practical training solutions that empower individuals and organisations to be proactive, safe, and effective in challenging situations.

Our Genesis

Established with a mission to redefine the standards of professional training, LBD Pro Training emerged from the vision of seasoned experts who recognised the gap between theoretical knowledge and its real-world application. Today, we stand as a beacon of excellence in a myriad of training domains, from conflict management to life support, with each course designed to cater to the unique demands of its respective field.

Our Promise

At LBD Pro Training, our commitment goes beyond imparting knowledge. We strive to instil confidence, competence, and a proactive mindset in each participant. Our comprehensive courses, designed with real-world applicability in mind and delivered by industry-leading professionals like Salim, ensure that every attendee leaves better equipped to face challenges head-on.

Salim

Founder & Executive Trainer

With a passion for Conflict Management & Personal Safety ignited at the tender age of 10, Salim’s journey in the field has been nothing short of remarkable. Achieving Black Belt instructor status in Goshin Jutsu Karate Kai and Combat Systems, his prowess was soon recognised in the broader conflict management arena. His work on knife defence was notably incorporated into training manuals for a prominent conflict management company.

Salim’s credentials span a vast spectrum: from a BTEC Advanced Diploma Award in Conflict Management Instruction to undertaking his foundation learning in being part of a female self-defence system under the New Breed Martial Arts School. His commitment to continuous professional and personal development is evident, as he regularly attends seminars to stay updated with the latest advancements in self-protection and corporate safety.

In addition to these accolades, Salim boasts two highly sought-after accreditations with physical intervention (restraint) systems. The first is the acclaimed NFPS system, followed by The Safe System behavioural restraint methods. And come November 2023, LBD Pro Training is set to add another feather to its cap with the GSA method. All these systems have been successfully employed in various settings, from Mental Health Units and Hospitals to Care Homes and Schools.

So, if your agency or trust is on the lookout for a specific system, rest assured, we can tailor our approach to seamlessly fit within your organisation’s framework. Furthermore, our commitment to your professional journey doesn’t end with training. We ensure your certificate is not just relevant but also boosts your employability and meets compliance requirements. Certificates are promptly supplied within 24 hours of final course attendance.

It’s not just about skills; it’s about experience. Salim’s rich history includes receiving multiple police commendations, contributing to media programmes, and even providing bodyguard services for notable personalities. His holistic approach to training, blending theory with his vast practical experience, ensures that LBD Pro Training’s courses are both informative and pragmatically applicable.

Erin

Executive Trainer

With a strong background in physical intervention training, I specialise in teaching effective and safe handling techniques to professionals working in high-risk environments. My expertise comes from years of hands-on experience in youth and adult custodial settings, where I developed a deep understanding of conflict management, de-escalation strategies, and crisis intervention.

I hold a BTEC National Diploma in Care and an NVQ in Care in Custody, providing me with a solid foundation in supporting vulnerable individuals. My time as a prison officer reinforced the importance of structured, evidence-based approaches to maintaining safety while respecting the rights and dignity of those in care. This experience, combined with my years as a qualified trainer, allows me to deliver training that is both practical and legally sound.

As a self-defence and personal safety trainer, I equip professionals with the skills to protect themselves and others in challenging situations. My qualifications in knife defence and response training ensure that I can offer specialist guidance on managing high-threat encounters while prioritising de-escalation. Additionally, my knowledge of neurodiversity and autism awareness enables me to tailor training to meet the diverse needs of individuals who require additional support.

Having trained professionals for many years, I am committed to delivering high-quality, engaging, and scenario-based training that empowers staff to handle difficult situations with confidence. By combining real-world experience with best practices, I ensure that every session is both informative and practical, helping organisations maintain a safe and professional working environment.
