Description

Enter the world of espionage and discover what it takes to be a spy. Dodge alarms to make it safely through the laser room challenge and delve into the murky world of the sniper, learning the principles of marksmanship and camouflage which help you stay alive! When the bullets run out there’s only one thing for it – hand to hand combat! Specialist techniques incorporating blocks, knife work and take downs, will be taught by an instructor with real live experience. Race a segway round a purpose-built circuit round off your day with the chance to handle a 9mm pistol. A qualified instructor will teach you the procedures and only when he thinks you are ready will you have the opportunity to fire.
