"IT'S NOT SELF DEFENSE. IT'S LIFE DEFENSE."
Shihan John Ralph
Students are drilled to create a mindset that reacts to a violent assault by immediately switching from a victim to an aggressor. Every touch is designed to create damage. Every tactic has both a defensive and offensive element. Techniques are overlapped to “short-circuit” and overwhelm the attacker. THERE ARE NO RULES of engagement. Every technique builds on instinctive responses.
The Ground Survival program covers the principles and tactics of defending and attacking from the ground. This program will train to defend from the typical positions including mount, guard and side. Defense against grappling, street fighting tactics and armed ground attacks are included. Drills are used to enhanced students agility on the ground while under stress, preparing you to succeed in a tactically challenge environment while using sound tactics to return to a standing position.
