Improvised Weapons
This course is designed to teach you all about using common objects that you would find in any given environment and using them in deadly force situations to protect yourself or loved ones. Not only will you learn how to use a variety of improvised weapons, but you will learn how to defend against them as well if someone is armed with them and uses them against you.
The first weapon system that you will learn in this unique course is Impact Weapons. An impact weapon can be anything from a crowbar to a hammer. You値l start with a Weapon Warm-Up to get a feel the object and its capabilities. Then you will learn the proper Grip, Conflict Stance, and the Jim Wagner 10 Striking and Blocking Directions. Once you know the basics you値l become better at handling the weapon with Conflict Drills.
You will then become an expert in Staff Weapons. You may find yourself trying to save your life with a broom, a mop, or a painter痴 pole; these are all staff weapons. In the process you値l learn how ancient spears were used in warfare and how some of the techniques apply to today. Utilizing the same techniques and training methods you learned with the impact weapons you値l also get new drills such as the Ground Staff Survival Drill and the Roman Legion Blocking Exercise.
The next weapons system is Flexible Weapons. This includes chains, cables, a jacket or even a belt. In addition to learning strikes and blocks a portion of your training will include how to survive the strangling weapon known as the Garrote. You値l also get to participate in a historical exercise known as the Apache Indian Rope Fight.
Throwing Weapons is the next discipline you値l be exposed to, because it may be your last ditch effort to survive. Knowing the trajectory of various objects will prepare you for this possibility. In this course you will actually throw Objects, Powders, and Liquids.
To understand the criminal mind better you値l be given a variety of harmless objects that you would be able to get in a prison. Then you will take these items and form weapons out of them limited only by your creativity. This project is called Improvised Weapons Making.
