Prerequisite: Intro to Combatives
Class Size: 8-30
This class follows up where the Intro left off. Getting straight into practical exercises, you will begin to learn more advanced and violent techniques of winning a close quarters fight on the street. The instructors will lead you through utilization of the improvised striking tools, weapon take aways as well as reversals and bettering a bad position. We will run striking drills to improve speed and accuracy and you will participate in force-on-force fighting scenarios with instructors wearing protective suits to get a realistic look at a street fight. This isn't the UFC - there are no octagons, referees or bells.

Violence of action
Combination strikes
Going on the offense (buying time to get away)
