Chen-style Taiji Push-hands

Push-hand is a kind of Wushu exercise in which two partners twine each other's hands to train their tactile and quickness in response. While practicing, the exerciser should comply with some basic Taiji principles such as sticking to each other without being separated, moving freely and flexibly, neither separating nor making forcible contact, rotating the body smoothly, making good use of the skill rather than only the force and staying clear of the opponent main force and striking at his weak points. Combining the basic techniques of grasp, catch, kick, jackknife and punch, the exercisers practice warding off, deflecting, pushing, pressing trampling, throwing, elbowing and leaning to obtain a sensitivity of knowing the enemy intention in advance and making quick decision of how and where to attack or defend.

The Self Defence Training System (Damian Ross)

The Self Defense Training System (SDTS) Combatives uses principles of close combat that have been proven over many decades of actual warfare. The number one principle of the SDTS is offensive, aggressive and ruthless attack, not a defensive mindset. The SDTS is not a martial arts system; it is a system of realistic and effective close combat based on proven methods that will allow you to gain the tactical advantage as fast as possible using whatever means possible. This includes unarmed techniques, knife fighting, club and other impact and edged weapons. The purpose of the SDTS Combatives is to save lives.

Our goal with the Self Defense Training System is to disseminate knowledge to those people who wish to have real, lifesaving fighting skills. Even though we attract many military, law enforcement, martial artists and people who have experienced violence in their lives, the program is designed so anyone with little or no experience can train successfully

Improvised Weapons of Opportunity

In this final part in the Secondary Tools series, we take an updated look into the use of improvised weapons. The two primary areas of concern here are said tools for personal carry and weapons of opportunity.Here we are looking at this subject from the carry law perspective in the United Kingdom - where of course, unlike other parts of Europe and the rest of the world, we are NOT allowed to carry any item of any kind even remotely construed as a 'weapon'. Hence our principle of 'going armed' must remain a secondary option here. In this program we take an updated view of improvised tools, looking at some of the latest purpose built KIT on the market for Self Protection, along with other simple carry options and useful tools to hand. We take an in-depth look at the pros and cons of impact tools compared to point and edge items. We also look at the 'Force to Threat Parallel' along with the possible consequences of employing such KIT. The message here is that IMPACT is always going to be the more clinical option - and just anything in your hand is most certainly NOT better than nothing. Good advice and excellent scenario training drills make this program a great final addition to the Secondary Tools series.
