This course is designed for instructors who seek intermediate to advanced skills in ground control and escape for law enforcement. Students should be physically prepared for strenuous and sustained physical activity throughout the 5-day training event. Officers attending this course will learn the most effective techniques for standing clinch positions, takedowns and takedown defense, submission defense, and ground control and escapes for law enforcement officers. These techniques were specifically developed by law enforcement officers to suit the needs of police, security, and corrections professionals. This course will enable officers to control combative subjects when reasonable, and skillfully avoid grounded encounters when it is not.

The core elements taught in this course such as leverage, body position, and timing are compatible with all other realistic defensive tactics and use of force related systems. But, learning to efficiently gain control of resistant and assaultive subjects is only part of the process. Students who complete this program will have developed or improved their ability to effectively communicate with and teach others so that they can efficiently pass on the valuable information to members of their organization.

The focus of this course is on active countermeasures gained through a functional understanding of timing, leverage, body position and distance management. These skills are an important next step for officers who seek improved self-defense and subject control by means of empty hand technique. These techniques are modified from the popular martial art of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, combined with other combat sports, and specially tuned for law enforcement application. Students should be prepared for a wide range of sustained, moderate to high intensity physical activity throughout the course.  Upon completion, officers will be capable of appropriately reacting to assaultive subjects at extreme close quarters.

Course objectives include but are not limited to:

  • Develop skills in utilizing the elements of timing, leverage and distance management
  • Learn to gain positions of advantage against a fully resistant subject
  • Learn intermediate and advanced techniques to avoid injury and escape from an attacker
  • Improve/develop efficiency as a trainer and communicator of complex physical skills
