• Dynamic Response Survival Tactics

     Now approved and certified by the Mississippi Board on Law Enforcement Standards and Training as a Mississippi Accredited Course for In-service and Continuing Education Training!!!. It has also been approved by P.O.S.T. in Missouri, Arkansas and Oklahoma as well. It has been taught in over 600 agencies nation wide! Introduction As a Law Enforcement Officer, you will come in contact with people in a wide variety of contexts. Some encounters are much like ordinary social or business contacts. In some situations, however, our duties may require you to exert control over people by giving them commands, directing their movement, or even taking them into custody. Your goal always, is to gain voluntary compliance from subjects. If they do, you will have achieved your objective without making the encounter unnecessarily adversarial and without any risk of injury to officer of subject. Unfortunately, even the best efforts of the most skilled officer to gain voluntary compliance does not always work. Sometimes you will have to use tactical force to achieve control and accomplish your legitimate Law Enforcement objective. In the ETS Dynamic Response Survival Tactics training, you will learn when and how to use tactical force to control people. These techniques are psychomotor skills, which mean that they involve both the brain and muscle memory. For that reason, you will spend much of your time in this class actually practicing these techniques, learning the skills first in isolation, and then eventually applying them in simulations. But before you learn how to use force, you must learn when it is appropriate to use force and what level is justified. The Dynamic Response Survival Tactics system is dedicated to the advancement of defensive tactics training for Law Enforcement and Military personnel. This system was originally developed in Israel, and has its roots in the Israeli Combat System of Krav Maga, which is taught at all levels of Law Enforcement, Security Forces and the Military in the nation of Israel. It is taught at the basic recruit training level all the way to the most advanced Special Forces. There is no defensive tactics system in the world that is more battle or street proven. It is approved and accredited by the MS Board on Law Enforcement Officers Standards and Training for all MS Law Enforcement for Continuing Education Credits and In-Service Training. It is also accredited by POST Boards in MO, AR, OK, Texas, Florida and others, and is used by over 600 agencies nationwide. What Makes DRST Training Options Different? It is not just another police defensive tactics system based on traditional martial arts approaches. It is modern, reality-based method of training characterized by coherent and logical thinking that builds up easy, natural and practical techniques featuring simple (natural) movements of the human body. Because Dynamic Response Survival Tactics is well-integrated, common defensive principles apply to a variety of attack scenarios. Thus, the system can be learned in a relatively short period of instruction. The techniques are easy to retain and can be performed under stress. The techniques in this training system picks up where other Defensive Tactics Systems stops, and fills in the gaps left by other systems. It integrates easily in with any other DT systems that the officer / student may have already been trained and certified in. Law Enforcement / Security / Military Applications This system has received international recognition as an innovative and highly practical defensive tactics system ideally suited for Law Enforcement and Military. According to personnel who have undergone this Tactical Certification Training, the most important and striking characteristics of the system are: EFFICIENT TRAINING PERIOD. Personnel attain a high level of proficiency in a short period of time. The program is easy to learn and easy to teach. RETENTION OF TRAINING. Because the system is based upon common principles and natural/instinctive movements, personnel are able to retain the techniques with minimal review and retaining them under stress. PRACTICAL TECHNIQUES. The core emphasis of this system is on effectiveness and simplicity. This real-world system provides realistic defenses against a variety of aggressive attacks, whether the assailant is armed or unarmed. PERFORMANCE UNDER STRESS. Training methods unique to the development of this system provide reality-based training designed to improve the operator's emotional and physical response to danger. These training methods develop the ability to identify threats at the earliest stages, react without hesitation, and escalate or de-escalate with the appropriate level(s) of force. USE-OF-FORCE ISSUES. This system enables operators to deal with the most violent offenders they encounter, while remaining acutely aware of reasonable use-of-force and civil liability issues facing law enforcement and military personnel. These are all crucial factors that must be considered in the development of any defensive tactics program. Dynamic Response Survival Tactics is 100% relevant to modem-day law enforcement because most agencies cannot afford the luxury of prolonged training courses for their personnel. This system is quick, effective and both easily learned and retained. This program is well integrated, meaning that similar defensive principles apply to a variety of hostile situations. Therefore, the system can be learned in a relatively short period of instruction. The system is designed to train large numbers of personnel or one at a time. The techniques are easy to retain with minimal review and can be performed under extreme stress. This system has been overwhelmingly praised by defensive tactics instructors from federal, state and local law enforcement agencies as well as hand to hand combat trainers from special units of the military from around the world. OBJECTIVE Our approach is simple, “to provide injury free effective Tactical Training for real life situations and take safe control as quickly as possible”. Officer safety is paramount- before, during and after a confrontation. As Law Enforcement / Security Professionals we deal with compliant, resistive, assaultive – high risk and life threatening situations every day. The goal of every officer-operator is to go home at the end of their shift/mission. We want to provide no nonsense-effective tactics to prepare the Warrior for their Mission. Layout of the Course The Classroom Lecture portion of the course will begin with discussing the concepts of Situational Awareness, Reactionary Gap / Reaction Time, the Effects of Stress on Performance, and the legal aspects or the Control Continuum. We will discuss the Warrior / Survival Mindset and how to effectively read the threats posed in Body Language. Also taught are the Principles of Escalation & De-Escalation, and the appropriate use of each. We will teach the Use of Force Standards as set forth by the US Supreme Court, as well as Deadly and Non-Deadly Force. We will discuss the Criminal and Civil aspects of Liability to the Officer and to the Agency. We will discuss the Philosophy of Combat and the Physiological Changes that occur within the mind and body during any Close Quarter Battle situation. This Course can be structured to meet the limitations or needs of any Department, Agency, or Training Center. It can be taught in a 16 hour, 24-hour, or 32-hour training period. The days can all be taught at one time, or structured in Levels 1 thru 3. Level 1: Level one will consist of the classroom lecture and the learning and application of Strikes, Counter Strikes, Defensive Techniques, and Escapes from all types of Grabs & Active Assaults. Examples: Wrist Grabs – Choke Holds – Bear Hugs – Head Locks – Guillotine – Deadly Force Holds on the Throat and Neck – Hair Grabs – Attempted Grabs – Pushes/Pulls from the front and back. *These techniques will be taught and the student will practice from multiple angles for real life scenarios, at the Static, Fluid & Dynamic levels of Training. There will be stress drills where the student will perform these simple techniques under simulated stress. Level 2: Level 2 will be an entire day of weapon disarming of Handguns, Long Guns, Sticks & Knives from all possible angles of Attack. Again, all disarms and control techniques are taught at the Static, Fluid & Dynamic Levels of Training. The training day will end with Stress Drills with the Student performing these simple techniques under Simulated Stress. Level 3: We call this level P.A.C.E. Prepare/Avoid/Control/Escape Level 3 instructs students in how to defend and escape if they find themselves on the ground. This is not a ground defense system of submission or any type of sport like wrestling moves. The student will first be taught how to Avoid being taken to the ground. But as we know, unfortunately there are situations where professionals find themselves on the ground. This Training will provide Instruction in how to effectively defend yourself if you do find yourself on your back in multiple and various angles of chokes, headlock, active aggression assaults of being punched, and much more. We will also train the student in how to effectively defend against knife and firearms assaults while on their back and face down in the prone position. **Any Agency or Training Center may request training in any of these levels as a standalone course. It is our suggestion to teach the Level one (16-hour) Course first, then Levels two & there in the following 2 days of training having all 32 hours together. But we do understand the restraints of agencies and departments in their ability to do this. So Level one can be taught in a 2 day training period and then schedule Levels 2 & 3 at a later time back to back or on separate training days. **For a full description of all Training Courses offered you can visit our Company Launch Page at: Kingdomtactics.com - Contact us by email - Phone: 662.587.1101
  • Combat Weapons Training

    Weapon Training

    Instinctive Tactical Shooting is a unique, fast paced method of training for real life combat/tactical shooting. This course is physically demanding and radically different than standard American law enforcement firearms training. It teaches you how to aim in a quick, natural way without using your gun sights. You will become proficient in rapid identification and acquisition of targets. Learn to advance to your target, properly using cover and concealment. Learn the Israeli method of quick magazine replacement. This method of firearms training employs firing under simulated combat conditions. Learn to shoot under simulated return fire. You will repeatedly fire your weapon under both physical stress with a high heart rate and under psychological stress. You will shoot like you do in combat, with a high level of adrenalin. Your mind will record your pistol's operation on your body so that under live fire, shooting is instinctive, leaving your mind free to focus on your attacker.

    NOTE:  Handgun courses MUST be taught in consecutive order.

    5 - Training Methodologies

    Definition:

      The Way or the (Method) we go about Training, Teaching or Instructing.

      Since the beginning of strategic warfare, a special group of individual has been tasked with the training Warriors to survive in combat. This profession which in many thousands of years old, has influenced the rise and fall of nations throughout history. It is the only recognized profession that trains students protect lives by taking or injuring another human life at the same time. It is also one of the few professions in which the instructor’s competence may be the difference between the life and death of the student or the general public.

      Throughout the centuries, survival training has changed very little. Survival Instructors have struggled with the lack of resources and the necessary time to adequately train their students. Even with today’s advanced weapon systems and technology, instructor must compensate for human limitations.

      Instructors who teach survival skills, (i.e defensive tactics, close quarter combat or any other type of Survival Strategies) are still faced with teaching students a physical skill.

     

    Variables that Affect Survival and Combat Training:

      Unlike other motor skill training, survival skills will be performed in the stress of combat. As such, motor skill training inherits a fair degree of learning and performance limitations. Although the learning roadblocks are multiple, there are three constant variables that directly affect survival and combat training.

    Exceptional Instructors have the ability to create a learning cycle that is constantly feeding upon itself. In the center of this cycle is the goal of creating and increasing the student’s confidence in a specific set of skills. Confidence minimizes the physiological effects of stress and places the student in a physical parameter for optimum combat performance. If the student does not have confidence in the technique or survival skill, they will never use it in the stress of Combat.

    Definitions and Theories of Martial Science:

     

    "Train like you fight; fight like you train", quote by unknown smart dude

     

    “Indecision is the mother of all F....Ups", mantra of all soldiers

     

    INTRODUCTION:

    Both quotes above are very specific to this chapter as it deals with how to train to achieve your required goals. Some people actually train to fight, others not so much, worse still many students and instructors alike don't actually know the difference. Whether you train to fight for sport, self-defense or just the pursuit of knowledge it is critical that you understand the implicit and explicit training paradigms and how to use both methodologies to achieve your desired outcome.

     

     

    Objectives:

     •Understand the meaning of Implicit and Explicit with regards to Training & Response

    •Ability to assess your existing training programs and modify them for optimal response goals

    •Ability to disrupt and destroy your opponent’s decision and response capabilities during a combat situation

    Pre-requisites:

    •Sense of Humor

    •Ability to learn then ignore big words

    Definitions:  Unfortunately even among neuropsychologists many of the terms and definitions relating to this subject are a grey area. With that in mind I will define what we mean by the terms in the following pages. If there are some neuropsychologist's who take exception please do not hesitate to contact me so I can show you my implicit response :)

    Conscious:  denoting or relating to a part of the human mind that is aware of a person's self, environment, and mental activity and that to a certain extent determines his choices of action.

    Subconscious: the totality of mental processes of which the individual is not aware; unreportable mental activities.

    Cognitive: of, relating to, being, or involving conscious intellectual activity; pertaining to the mental process of perception, reasoning and judgment, etc.

    Non-cognitive: adjective of cognitive, not cognitive, not related to the process of acquiring knowledge through the senses or reasoning.

    You will learn how to use the 4 parts of the cane, the Crook, Tip, Horn and Shaft to defend yourself and to use in a combat situation.

    It is truly an incredible Self-Defense Tool.

     

    The Cane for Self-defense:

    Many people do not like the walking cane for Self-defense because it does not go along with their age, attire or, they simply do not want to be associated with someone who may be disabled. They do not wish to have the stigma that is often associated with the cane.

    There is a strength in that appearance. The strong appearing to be weak might be all the edge you need in a lot of physical confrontations. That’s a "Combat Ruse." A young attacker who is strong might make the incredible mistake of thinking you are easy prey, to find out all too late that you’re not.

     

    The Cane gives even more reach than the average telescoping baton in some cases and is legal in more areas than that weapon.

    Perhaps the greatest strength of all is in the presentation. The Cane is already "drawn." You can strike immediately with it. There is an old saying in Gun Circles, "The fastest draw is to have the gun in your hand when the trouble starts." This applies to the knife as well, and the stick. The strength of the Cane is, it is a Cane! It’s not a gun or a knife, it is already out in the open and you can strike instantly with it.

     

    You will learn all of the angles for blocking with the cane and all the angles or attack using the cane as impact and striking weapon.

    An incredible self-defense weapon that can be carried and used anywhere!

  • Israeli Tactical Knife Fighting

    Israeli Tactical Knife Fighting               Come and learn the same skills as are taught to the Israeli Military, Special Forces and other Israeli Professionals.Israeli Tactical Knife Fighting Class / Knife Defenses – Can you defend yourself against an attacker with a knife?A Knife is a Force Multiplier. Perfectly legal to carry, and very lethal in an Assaultive situation.Our Israeli Tactical Knife Fighting (ITKF) class can help you learn how to even the odds. Knives are legal to carry and easily accessible which makes it a very attractive weapon for criminals. The mindset of ITKF is to even the odds. If a knife is pulled on you, you should not defend the attack with open hands if you can deploy a knife to even the odds. A skilled ITKF practitioner defending against an unskilled attacker has a huge advantage in the outcome of the attack.The ITKF Program is not restricted to law enforcement, military or approved civilians, anyone can take our classes.  This program teaches use of the knife as a defensive tool and as an offensive weapon, when you are being attacked and justified to use Deadly Force in Defense of your life or the life of someone else. It brings Professor Garry Welch and his extensive expertise in use of edged weapons to the classroom setting.ITKF covers all facets of using a knife against an assailant who is also armed with a knife or any other Deadly Force Object, or an empty hand attack from a much larger, stronger and more skilled individual, when your very life is on the line. You will learn effective deployment strategies to using reverse grip tactics to draw the attacker into an effective counterattack. In learning the Knife Fighting System, you will learn the point on the body that are considered Lethal Points, thereby learning the parts of your body that are the most vulnerable.Knife-fighting training is an excellent way to develop a keen understanding of how a knife is used in an attack. It is also a great way to develop a sense of the flow of an assault with a knife, improve footwork for all programs, and improve recognition of knife motion and patterns. All of this not only serves to turn students into effective knife fighters, but also importantly helps students greatly enhance their ability to “read” the existence and direction of travel of a knife being used against them. This is a critical ability to possess and to develop for the empty hand versus knife tactics taught in the Krav Maga System. This high level class teaches the defender how to use a knife as a defensive weapon if the attacker deploys an edged weapon. The best strategic mindset in any survival situation is to at least even the odds if not better the odds. This class completely covers all skills needed to significantly improve your odds of surviving and to dominate an encounter against a knife wielding attacker.This class is open for enrollment to both Male and Female Students. These classes are also available to bring to any Law Enforcement Agency, Security Company or Military Unit. Train to Live….. Live to Train!!!!! "In a time of great crisis...We never rise to the level of our expectations...We will always fall to the level of our Training!!"
