Looking for a career where professionalism, awareness, and people skills make a difference every day?

Casino security is about much more than protecting a property—it’s about helping create a safe, welcoming environment for guests and employees while being part of a dynamic industry. From customer service and conflict prevention to responding to incidents and supporting responsible gaming environments, security professionals play an important role in Alberta’s casinos.

Whether you’re looking to begin a career in security, build valuable experience, or find meaningful part-time or full-time work, casino security offers an opportunity to protect people, support communities, and create positive experiences.

Interested in getting started? Check out the training and application information in the poster and visit TalonPoint.ca to learn more about other training opportunities. Casino Security does not require the Alberta Basic Security License.

Security for what matters.

🎉 A BIG Junior Talons™ milestone! 🥋

Back in July, Zoe and Braedon passed their IKMF Junior Level 1 testing — becoming the first of our Junior Talons™ to reach this milestone! 👏👏

We are incredibly proud of these two. They showed up, put in the work, challenged themselves, and when it came time to test, demonstrated the skills they had worked so hard to build.

And that’s one of the things we love about the IKMF Kids & Junior program. Kids aren’t just smaller adults — and their self-defence training shouldn’t be either.

The curriculum is built specifically for young people. What they learn reflects the actual situations and risks kids and teens may actually face, and how they learn it reflects how young people learn, think and respond.

So while they’re building practical self-defence skills, they’re also developing awareness, decision-making, confidence, resilience, and learning what they’re capable of when something gets hard.

And then they get opportunities like this to put it all together and earn their next level.

Zoe and Braedon — Junior Level 1 earned. 💪🥋
We couldn’t be prouder of you both, and we can’t wait to see what comes next!

We’re also proud to be the only school in Edmonton offering the IKMF Kids & Junior program and giving local kids and teens the opportunity to be part of this international curriculum.

Congratulations, Zoe and Braedon! ❤️

A huge thank you to the Edmonton Chamber of Commerce for coming out to visit us today! 💛

They do such an incredible job of supporting Edmonton’s business community — not just with their words, but with their actions. They show up, make connections, share recommendations, offer encouragement, and somehow keep planning some pretty amazing events along the way!

A special thank you to Amin and Victoria for genuinely caring about the businesses and people you support. It means more than you know.

This is what community is all about. **When we support one another, we can accomplish so much more together.** 🙌

People often assume I became a self-defence instructor because I'd always wanted to.

Nothing could be further from the truth.

There was one question that completely changed the direction of my life—and ultimately led me to Krav Maga, becoming an instructor, and even meeting my husband.

It's funny how one realization can alter everything.

Here's the story.

Today was a big day at TalonPoint Defence.

Congratulations to Aurora and Ben on earning their IKMF Practitioner Level 1, and to Annie on earning her Practitioner Level 2! 👏

These weren't quick promotions. Each exam lasted well over two hours and tested far more than just technique. Students were challenged physically and mentally, demonstrating defensive tactics, decision-making under pressure, endurance, and the ability to continue performing when fatigue set in.

What makes today especially rewarding is seeing the different paths that brought them here. Aurora and Ben committed to the journey together as husband and wife, while Annie (who is only 19) first joined us through our homeschool program and has continued to grow tremendously through consistent training.

At TalonPoint Defence, progression is earned. Every patch represents months of commitment, resilience, and the ability to perform to a high standard under pressure. There are no shortcuts.

While we're incredibly proud of the patches they earned today, those patches are simply a symbol of something much more important. The real achievement is the confidence they've built, the capability they've developed, and their increased ability to protect themselves and the people they care about if they ever need to.

Congratulations to all three of you. You've earned this milestone, and we can't wait to see where your training takes you next. 👊

And a big thank you to Scarlett who was Annie's partner. She did the test a second time, just to help her friend. That's dedication!

The kids learned how to surf today... 🌊🏄

In Alberta.
On dry land. 😄

They absolutely LOVED this game—and they picked it up incredibly fast!

What looks like pure fun is actually developing coordination, balance, body awareness, and confidence while introducing important movement skills they'll use throughout their Krav Maga journey.

Today's class also included:
✅ Forward and backward breakfalls
✅ Forward and backward rolls
✅ Plenty of laughs along the way!

At TalonPoint Defence, our Junior Krav Maga classes are designed to build real-life skills through engaging, age-appropriate training. The kids have so much fun, they don't even realize how much they're learning.

Six weeks.

That's all it took for these women to go from *"I hope I never need this"* to *"I know I can do something if I do."*

Congratulations to our newest graduates of UnstoppableMe™! 🎉

Over six weeks, these ladies committed to themselves and to each other. Each week, they built on the last—learning strikes, blocks, escapes from wrist grabs and bear hugs, ground defences, and more.

But the final class was where everything came together.

After reviewing all of their techniques, we brought in our male instructors to add realism and stress. For many, it was the first time applying their skills against a larger, stronger partner. And they did it.

Not perfectly.

Not fearlessly.

But confidently.

Because confidence isn't about believing nothing bad can happen. It's about knowing you're more capable than you were yesterday.

We're incredibly proud of these women and grateful to have been part of their journey. ❤️

Our next UnstoppableMe™ Women's Self-Defence Program begins this fall.

Because every woman deserves to feel stronger, safer, and more capable.

👇 Wish them a congratulations in the comments below! This was a huge step for many of them.

"I don't need self-defence. I live in a safe neighbourhood."

I hear that all the time.

And I genuinely hope that's true.

But here's a question:

What happens when you leave your neighbourhood?

✈️ Travel internationally.
🚗 Drive through an unfamiliar part of town.
🏢 Work late in an empty office.
🚶 Visit a city you've never been to.

Most of us don't need violence prevention and self-defence because we live in dangerous places.

We need them because life doesn't always keep us in safe ones.

The goal isn't to live in fear.

The goal is to have the awareness to avoid problems when you can…

…and the ability to protect yourself and those you love when you can't.

Have you ever had that moment where you realized, "I can't always depend on someone else to keep me safe?"

👇 I'd love to hear your thoughts.
