army combatives video

Good stuff. I don't see a knife though.

Only as good as I make myself be, only as bad as I let myself be.


Martial arts are like kinetic chess. Your move.

I began viewing it, and I like what I see. I don't when I'll be able to watch all of it, but I like the progressions and the training methodologies behind it.

I also like the use of kali and the western weapon arts.

Army Combatives sparring is usually just BJJ in your ACUs(uniform)and sneakers. I have won two Army combatives tournaments with the companies I have been in the last year with hardly any army combatives training but with about 8 years of BJJ experience.

If you like this sort of thing train in BJJ, Muay Thai, Boxing, Arnis, etc.

Karate without bareknuckle kumite(kyokushin/knockdown rules)is dancing. Karate without kata isn't Karate.


BTW, I'm a horrible dancer.

It's certainly better than the old crap they used to teach. It was just enough to get your butt kicked.

Very cool.

Maybe LEOs should start looking at adopting something like this. The striking wouldn't fly very well, but there is definitely room for improvement.
Im sure it varies by state but Ohio

Has been teach ground defense tactics for at least 2 years. I hope it spreads because at the veary least you have to learn to escape and get back up.

A friend of mine and I work on some of these types of tactics, with the main point of the scenario being trying to get back to our feet as quickly as possible. I enjoy the training, as well.

I have a friend in the Reserves, and he is considering getting in on this combatives training. A former student of ours has gotten into it as well, and from what I have heard, his training from TKD has helped him out quite a bit. He enjoys it. If my friend gets into it, hopefully we will be able to work on some of the stuff together.

My friend was telling me that after completion of the courses, there have been some of the Army guys who have quit the Army afterwards, because they were recruited by low-level MMA groups to compete.
