2 Day Vanilla Gorilla Combatives Class.

Our 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. Our Combatives Course is a progressive integration of proven physical skills, tactics, and accompanying attributes, developed only for actual use within the field of interpersonal hostility. It is not merely a collection of sequence-based self-defense techniques superficially borrowed from various martial arts and combat sports. 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.
