Medical Training Courses at Rigad Olomouc Launch: First DoD Stop The Bleed on January 30

Starting at the end of January, tactical first aid medical training courses are launching at the Rigad Olomouc store as part of a collaboration with Elite Training Center Czech Republic. The training focuses on the practical management of life-threatening emergencies and brings internationally recognized, certified programs to the region. The first open course is DoD Stop The Bleed, which will take place on Friday, January 30.

The training will be led by Jan Majer, an instructor with extensive experience in crisis and tactical medicine, who has long specialized in teaching the management of life-threatening conditions in realistic, real-world environments.

There are still available spots for the first DoD Stop The Bleed course.

Training takes place directly within the store premises, which have been adapted for realistic scenario-based training. Emphasis is placed primarily on hands-on practice, simple decision-making algorithms, and repeatable drills that reflect real intervention conditions.

The partnership between Rigad and Elite Training Center brings high-quality medical training to Olomouc, built on real-world practice, clear procedures, and proven standards. These courses are not about theory or formal certification alone, but about skills that can be applied immediately — at the shooting range, in the field, or in everyday civilian environments.
The courses are open to professionals and civilians alike who want to be capable of responding effectively when time, equipment, and space are working against them.
