Body Language for Law Enforcement
Body Language for Law Enforcement
The Body Language for Law Enforcement Class was designed to provide law enforcement with a detailed understanding on non-verbal communication. Much of the communication skills taught in not only law enforcement academies, but in educational facilities around the world, is limited to verbal communication. This course aims at shedding light on body language movements that law enforcement officers may be missing when interacting with people. The course dispels body language myths and provides an in-depth analysis of non-verbal behavior.
The course will cover 4 regions of the body, non-verbal vocal changes, foreshadowing and many other important elements of body language. Attendees will be provided with the knowledge to use body language to assist in detecting deception and detecting aggression. Upon completion of this course attendees will understand the importance of recognizing a baseline and what messages may be conveyed by different body movements.
This course has been designed for everyone in law enforcement, as it has been taken by patrol officers, agents, investigators, conservation officers, sheriff’s officers, arson investigators, detectives and other LEOs on the local, state, and federal levels with various job titles and job descriptions.

Awesome and informative
Awesome and informative. The instructor cared about the subject, and making sure that the students walked away with a better understanding of the material.
Phenomenal job
Sean did a phenomenal job explaining the course material but then also applying it to real life scenarios. I liked that he let us watch the videos without telling us what we would see so that we could try to find it on our own.
Refreshing
I really appreciated Sean Grogan’s presentation style. It was clear he knew the content he was conveying and was clear he had in-depth experience. It was refreshing to attend a law enforcement training that wasn’t dry and slow. Not once did I find myself looking at my watch to see when we were done. Sean was engaging and captivating and I truly appreciated the opportunity to attend this class. I am excited to put what I learned into practice and even more excited to attend future Street Cop trainings. Really appreciate what you and your teams are doing for Law Enforcement.
An awesome instructor
The best parts of the training were when Sean played videos, explained them, then replayed them to show the explanation. He’s an excellent instructor who had our attention the entire time, extremely entertaining and stayed on topic without being monotone or overly repetitive. Seriously, an awesome instructor.
