Teacups & Targets Training
The Teacups & Targets training is an empowering, intensive one or two-day program developed and led by Victoria Napolitano, a retired police detective and highly commended hostage negotiator. The core philosophy of the training is to redefine female strength: long gone are the days when capability meant acting like a man or being unpolished. Instead, the program teaches participants how to be both "polished and fierce." This means mastering the art of crisis management while maintaining composure and personal refinement.
Napolitano's extensive background in law enforcement is the foundation of the curriculum. Having served on high-risk entry and critical response teams, she specializes in self-defense, endurance training, and negotiation techniques. The entire program is dedicated to guiding participants to think critically about their actions and thoughts when under pressure. It's designed to be a "heart-pumping, exciting" adventure that is well worth the time invested in getting truly in tune with one's self during a crisis.
The training's practical component involves scenario-based learning. Victoria Napolitano puts participants into various high-stress situations to test their responses and guide them on effective escape strategies and decision-making. This unique, hands-on approach uses her expertise as a former hostage negotiator to equip individuals with real-world skills. The program is promoted across her media network, including VNSNRADIO.COM and Chic Fitness TV, highlighting its position as a distinctive offering within her broader Victoria Napolitano Group lifestyle brand.
