Title – Pressure communication exercise
Date – May 2006
At Beyond The Blue we believe that prevention is far more important a skill to learn then any other.
We believe through learning about communication skills many of the situations which currently lead to aggressive situations arising, can be controlled and prevented. We train individuals on our Conflict Management and Resolution Course, to understand what is involved in good communication, how to recognise the blocks to good communication and how to break these down to achieve your goals. Good communication skills also benefit individuals in the work place in communicating with colleagues and managers.
By adding pressure through peers watching and time constraints, as well as other measures, we recreate a more realistic environment for those involved in the exercise and thus make the exercise even more relevant.

Title – Strangle Release
Date – May 2006
As part of our Physical Intervention and Personal Safety training course we teache techniques that allow individuals to release themselves from a strangle hold without the need to effect a strike or similar high impact technique. Our techniques not only release the strangle hold but follow through to create space and allow individuals to remove themselves from the aggressors fighting arc. Our techniques do not rely on force or strength as they are designed to be low-impact and to reduce the levels of aggressions as opposed to overpowering the aggressor.
Our trainers demonstrate techniques with members of the group they are training, before allowing time for individuals within the group to practice with each other. The demonstrations often prove that size is not the primary factor to achieving success; but rather a good understanding of the technique; the use of levers; and using the aggressors own strength against them. These will help you to achieve your goals.

Title – Misdirection of force exercise
Date – November 2005
During many of the Physical Intervention and Personal Safety courses run by Beyond The Blue, we demonstrate different solutions to the same problem.
We also demonstrate clearly that our techniques do not rely on brute strength and that anyone can benefit from learning how to redirect force used against them, in order to remove themselves from the situation and further danger.
The techniques are easy to learn, easy to remember and simple to use and all individuals are given sufficient time to practise and perfect them.

Title – Security Team

Despite a long 12 hour shift our teams of Beyond The Blue staff working alongside the in-house team remain motivated throughout.
By empowering individuals within the team and taking good care of staff working, individuals remain motivated throughout and in turn offer better service to the customers even after standing often in the cold and wet for 12 hours at a time.
Beyond The Blue prides itself on its focus on the conditions in which staff under its guidance work. We believe that good preparation and training as well as good positive management is the key to achieving the high standards we expect.

Title – Ferris Wheel
Date – June 2004
Events range in size and focus, some are directed at corporate clients and require a level of sophistication that reflects on the company presenting the event, others are one long party and the fun has to start at the front gate and continue as long as people remain. Venues and budgets also dictate the possibilities; big events can offer Ferris wheels and other large structures that enhance the venue, while smaller events require us to be more creative.
Beyond The Blue takes the view that no event is too big or too small for us to Event Manage. Be it a company Christmas party for 200 staff or 10,000 attending a live performance we have the capability and willingness to offer services to all clients. The consistent factors are always the same; the amount of research we put in before making any recommendations, the level of co-operation with our clients; the strong working relationships we develop with our clients; and above all the high expectations we put on ourselves to deliver a quality product and the exceptional customer service you should demand.

Title – Cocktail Bar
Date – June 2004
Beyond The Blue is always seeking new avenues for its clients and their customers to benefit further from innovations at events. Cocktail are hardly a new concept and we will not claim to have discovered them. However through Consultancy Projects with our clients and through extensive staff training we recommend and provide the right solutions for your event.
Depending on the nature of the event you are running and our involvement with it, the popular choice of a cocktail bar can range anywhere from a high volume previously prepared version, to the all singing all dancing flair bar tender throwing ice, fruit, straws, umbrellas, glasses and alcohol into a glass and magically presenting the customer not only with a drink; but a show as well.
We have a range of solutions to enhance your event and we offer Event Management services if you require us to run the show on your behalf. What ever you require we can make it happen for you and your organisation.
