REACH: Personal Safety and Situational Awareness Workshop

Join us for an empowering and informative evening designed to help you feel stronger, more confident, and more prepared in everyday situations. As part of our REACH programming, this hands-on Personal Safety and Situational Awareness Workshop will provide practical tools and real-world strategies to help individuals build awareness, confidence, and personal safety skills. The workshop will take place on July 23, 2026 from 6:00 PM – 8:00 PM at Unfinished Athletics.

The session will be led by Diego Civello, a graduate of Temple University and a retired law enforcement officer with nearly three decades of dedicated service protecting his community. During his career, Diego also served as a training officer, where he discovered a passion for teaching practical skills that help people stay prepared and confident in real-world situations.

In addition to his distinguished career in public safety, Diego is also a former professional bodybuilder and the 1988 World Champion, bringing a unique combination of physical training expertise, discipline, and mental resilience to his instruction. Since retiring from law enforcement in 2019, he has focused on educating civilians on personal safety, defensive awareness, and responsible self-protection. He currently teaches at Target World and the Boulder Valley Sportsmen Association, where he leads courses in firearms safety, defensive training, concealed carry techniques, pepper spray defense, and women’s self-defense.

During this workshop, participants will learn practical techniques focused on situational awareness, personal safety strategies, and simple defensive movements that can be applied regardless of experience level. Diego’s approachable teaching style ensures attendees walk away feeling more capable and confident.

Important: This seminar will focus strictly on personal safety awareness and practical defensive concepts. There will be no weapons training during this workshop.

The class will take place at The Unfinished Athletics, giving attendees the chance to experience a great local business while learning valuable skills. Food will also be provided during the workshop so participants can enjoy light fare while connecting with fellow attendees.
