SUMMARY:Escape and counter restraint Combatives (2 day)
DESCRIPTION:Overview\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nOur Combatives training is focused around real-world personal conflict\, and is designed to provide the maximum probable results in the minimum possible time in the most practical way possible. A physical confrontation will always be complex in every manifestation\, as it pertains to our natural physical response.  This course is specifically designed to work off your natural response platform as a human being when confronted by a threat. The various high/low line strikes we implement are designed for building muscle memory so that students can recall these skills under stress in a violent encounter. This 2-day course will also incorporate a few elements from our Counter-Criminal-Restraint course. \n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\n\nCounter-Criminal-Restraint Course Criminal or unlawful restraint occurs when someone illegally deprives another of his or her physical freedom. This can be accomplished through physical force\, the use of weapons\, or physical restraints. Techniques taught during this course of instruction will include: combative striking and counters to physical control\, fighting in a confined space (vehicle)\, weapons disarms\, and defeating physical restraints. \n\nTopics Covered \n\nHand-to-hand techniques\nHigh/low line strikes\nSituational awareness\nHome invasion considerations\nEscape from various restraints (handcuffs\, zip ties\, duct tape\, rope)\nRestraint and escape scenarios
