STOP THE BLEED COURSE.
21 MAY 2026
In Association with Hillcrest Guns and Outdoor.
Venue: Hillcrest Guns & Outdoor Shop, Sugarloaf Centre, Botha’s Hill
Time: 18H30 to 20H30
May is International Stop The Bleed Month, and there has never been a more important time to equip yourself with lifesaving skills that work when seconds count.
This evening course is specifically designed to give working professionals enough time to get home from work and still attend this vital training opportunity.
If you carry a firearm, this course should form part of your EDC arsenal. Even if you do not own a firearm, these skills could mean the difference between life and death for yourself, your family, or an innocent bystander.
In today’s South Africa, violent crime can erupt anywhere, anytime. Shopping malls, parking lots, petrol stations, restaurants and traffic intersections. Innocent people are being caught in the middle of armed robberies and shootings every single day.
The reality is brutal. A person can bleed to death in minutes, without any rapid intervention. Emergency services will not arrive in time and in that moment, you are the first responder, “Would you know what to do?” and don’t think, “Oh, I saw this on TV once” because believe me, Hollywood gets its wrong the majority of the time.
Imagine surviving a shooting incident by taking a round to the arm or leg. Would you know how to save yourself, your child, spouse, friend, or even a stranger caught in the crossfire?
This course teaches real-world, battle-tested medical skills that work under pressure.
Skills Covered Include:
• How and when to correctly apply a tourniquet.
• Improvised tourniquet. techniques when standard equipment is unavailable.
• Tourniquet conversion.
• Wound packing techniques.
• Correct use of hemostatic agents.
• Effective treatment of penetrating chest trauma.
• Problem solving under pressure.
• Thinking outside the box during medical emergencies.
• And more...
The course is presented by Tactical Survival Institute - Emergency Preparedness Consultants & Training Tactical Paramedic with combat experience, bringing real operational knowledge and practical skills from high-threat environments, that work under pressure.
Every student will receive:
• International Accreditation Certificate.
• Stop The Bleed Booklet.
And a FREE 5 Day Urban Survival Challenge.
Do not wait until tragedy strikes before realizing you should have trained.
Seats are limited.
Book now and gain the skills that could save a life, including your own.
