Great class for anyone on the fence, take the wife/girlfriend, everyone will learn something.

A+ instructors!

I like the direction this thread is going...

I'm feeling a little uncomfortable about it, myself.

 

[cedartop]

Class is full. Thanks to everyone who signed up, we are looking forward to working with you Saturday!

I actually bought my very first quality fixed blade a couple weeks ago. I suppose it is time somebody showed me how to use it. I seem to recall something about a pointy end but after that it's all a little foggy.

Is that what you had on your belt? I wanted to ask you about it, but I kept forgetting!

I have all sorts of stuff on my belt and in my pockets. But since I know that you can recognize a 1911 the other thing was probably a knife. It's small and hides with an untucked or cover shirt.

If rhino was in the same county and isn't bleeding, the item in question is NOT a knife.

See you all tomorrow.

Thanks to Mike and Josh for a great class today! Content was very helpful and extensive...just what I was looking for. You guys did an excellent job with the curriculum and made everyone in the class more prepared, I sincerely appreciate it. I've got a lot of stuff to "noodle" on in the near future for sure.

Thanks to Jackson as well, who contributed to the instruction, provided some real-world experience/stories and did a great job rolling with those that were willing.

If you missed this class, I definitely recommend you catch one by these guys in the near future.

 

[VERT]

Just remember eye gouge. Everything else was just bonus material.

 

[Jackson]

It was a good class today. There was a lot of good participation and it seemed like people enjoyed it.

Thanks again for coming out. We are glad you found it enjoyable and informative, especially considering you were already well trained in many of the areas we covered.

Now I knew somebody would do it, just didn't expect it to be you.

Great class. I'm especially glad my wife was there to hear the material. We are both far better prepared to handle all kinds of situations now that we've been through the class. Also, it's kept us talking for a few days now about what I'd do in this or that situation, and how she would handle this or that potential problem. Pretty eye opening stuff.

I recommend this class to everyone. And take your wife and/or daughter with you if you can.



ps- Coach's daughter beat up Jackson.

Video?

No video, but she knows how to use the shoulder pressure.

I remember Josh saying something about a forearm across the throat.

In general, the forearm on the throat is suboptimal. It's not where I'd have gone when inside the guard.

Wow way to mess up my being a smart@$$.

Truth is I found the grappling component interesting and worth experiencing. But I would not want to try it on the street. Like any martial art it takes dedicated practice.

Yeah she jumped right into the bjj part of the class. She rolled twice.

Vert tried to turn my elbow into pulled pork at one point. It made some interesting noises during what was supposed to be some "light" practice escaping from a wrist grab.

He also missed a legitimate chance to grab the zombie kit from out of the truck.
