SUMMARY:Extreme Close Quarter Concepts (ECQC) with ShivWorks
DESCRIPTION:The ShivWorks Extreme Close Quarter Concepts (ECQC) course is a two-and-a-half-day (24-hour) block of instruction that offers a multi-disciplinary approach to building functional\, combative handgun skills at zero to five feet. The course is designed to instill core concepts of seamless integration and provide the platform for aggressive problem solving during a life or death struggle at arm’s length or closer. We emphasize the common body mechanics that apply across different skill sets. That way\, all combative software is reinforcing. Once students’ skill sets are ingrained\, they will be stress inoculated with force-on-force drills using marking cartridges and protective equipment. \nTo be clear\, this coursework is not for everybody. It is active\, physical\, and often quite a humbling experience. However\, our students are young and old\, male and female\, large and small\, outgoing and shy\, white collar and blue collar\, experienced and inexperienced. Regardless of your background\, a positive attitude and an open mind will take you far in the ShivWorks curriculum. \nNotes:\n\nYou do not need any martial arts or combative experience to attend this course. You only need the ability to safely deploy your handgun from the holster.\nThe first four hours of day two and three are live fire training. You can train from concealment or overtly outside the waistband; neither option will impact the quality of your training experience. You must be able to safely and competently deploy/shoot/manipulate your firearm. This is not a pistol 101 course\, and a lack of basic weapons handling skills will result in you being asked to step off the firing line.\n\n \nDay 1:\n(Four Hours)\n\nCriminal Assault Paradigm\nUnequal Initiative Events\nManaging Unknown Contacts\nPractical Unarmed Combat or In-Extremis Knife modules\n\nDay 2:\n(Ten Hours)\n\nIntroduction to the components of the Combative Drawstrok\nBuilding the #2 position in live-fire\nFiring throughout the horizontal line of presentation\nOff-hand fending positions\nDefault position\nBasic empty hand blows\nTheory of in-fight weapon access\nGrounded basics\n\nDay 3:\n(Ten Hours)\n\nChallenging the potential attacker\nPreemptive weapon access\nMultiple attackers\nNegotiating the F.U.T.\nECQ Handgun retention in holster\nECQ handgun retention out of holster\nHandgun recovery\nHandgun striking\n\n-> SIGN UP THROUGH SHIVWORKS HERE <-\nInstructor Bio:\nCraig Douglas (aka “SouthNarc”) is the founder of ShivWorks\, a consortium of like-minded professionals devoted to training and product development in the emerging field of interdisciplinary problem-solving for self-defense.

SUMMARY:Extreme Close Quarter Concepts (ECQC) with ShivWorks
DESCRIPTION:The ShivWorks Extreme Close Quarter Concepts (ECQC) course is a two-and-a-half-day (24-hour) block of instruction that offers a multi-disciplinary approach to building functional\, combative handgun skills at zero to five feet. The course is designed to instill core concepts of seamless integration and provide the platform for aggressive problem solving during a life or death struggle at arm’s length or closer. We emphasize the common body mechanics that apply across different skill sets. That way\, all combative software is reinforcing. Once students’ skill sets are ingrained\, they will be stress inoculated with force-on-force drills using marking cartridges and protective equipment. \nTo be clear\, this coursework is not for everybody. It is active\, physical\, and often quite a humbling experience. However\, our students are young and old\, male and female\, large and small\, outgoing and shy\, white collar and blue collar\, experienced and inexperienced. Regardless of your background\, a positive attitude and an open mind will take you far in the ShivWorks curriculum. \nNotes:\n\nYou do not need any martial arts or combative experience to attend this course. You only need the ability to safely deploy your handgun from the holster.\nThe first four hours of day two and three are live fire training. You can train from concealment or overtly outside the waistband; neither option will impact the quality of your training experience. You must be able to safely and competently deploy/shoot/manipulate your firearm. This is not a pistol 101 course\, and a lack of basic weapons handling skills will result in you being asked to step off the firing line.\n\n \nDay 1:\n(Four Hours)\n\nCriminal Assault Paradigm\nUnequal Initiative Events\nManaging Unknown Contacts\nPractical Unarmed Combat or In-Extremis Knife modules\n\nDay 2:\n(Ten Hours)\n\nIntroduction to the components of the Combative Drawstrok\nBuilding the #2 position in live-fire\nFiring throughout the horizontal line of presentation\nOff-hand fending positions\nDefault position\nBasic empty hand blows\nTheory of in-fight weapon access\nGrounded basics\n\nDay 3:\n(Ten Hours)\n\nChallenging the potential attacker\nPreemptive weapon access\nMultiple attackers\nNegotiating the F.U.T.\nECQ Handgun retention in holster\nECQ handgun retention out of holster\nHandgun recovery\nHandgun striking\n\n-> SIGN UP THROUGH SHIVWORKS HERE <-\nInstructor Bio:\nCraig Douglas (aka “SouthNarc”) is the founder of ShivWorks\, a consortium of like-minded professionals devoted to training and product development in the emerging field of interdisciplinary problem-solving for self-defense.

SUMMARY:Extreme Close Quarter Concepts (ECQC) with ShivWorks
DESCRIPTION:The ShivWorks Extreme Close Quarter Concepts (ECQC) course is a two-and-a-half-day (24-hour) block of instruction that offers a multi-disciplinary approach to building functional\, combative handgun skills at zero to five feet. The course is designed to instill core concepts of seamless integration and provide the platform for aggressive problem solving during a life or death struggle at arm’s length or closer. We emphasize the common body mechanics that apply across different skill sets. That way\, all combative software is reinforcing. Once students’ skill sets are ingrained\, they will be stress inoculated with force-on-force drills using marking cartridges and protective equipment. \nTo be clear\, this coursework is not for everybody. It is active\, physical\, and often quite a humbling experience. However\, our students are young and old\, male and female\, large and small\, outgoing and shy\, white collar and blue collar\, experienced and inexperienced. Regardless of your background\, a positive attitude and an open mind will take you far in the ShivWorks curriculum. \nNotes:\n\nYou do not need any martial arts or combative experience to attend this course. You only need the ability to safely deploy your handgun from the holster.\nThe first four hours of day two and three are live fire training. You can train from concealment or overtly outside the waistband; neither option will impact the quality of your training experience. You must be able to safely and competently deploy/shoot/manipulate your firearm. This is not a pistol 101 course\, and a lack of basic weapons handling skills will result in you being asked to step off the firing line.\n\n \nDay 1:\n(Four Hours)\n\nCriminal Assault Paradigm\nUnequal Initiative Events\nManaging Unknown Contacts\nPractical Unarmed Combat or In-Extremis Knife modules\n\nDay 2:\n(Ten Hours)\n\nIntroduction to the components of the Combative Drawstrok\nBuilding the #2 position in live-fire\nFiring throughout the horizontal line of presentation\nOff-hand fending positions\nDefault position\nBasic empty hand blows\nTheory of in-fight weapon access\nGrounded basics\n\nDay 3:\n(Ten Hours)\n\nChallenging the potential attacker\nPreemptive weapon access\nMultiple attackers\nNegotiating the F.U.T.\nECQ Handgun retention in holster\nECQ handgun retention out of holster\nHandgun recovery\nHandgun striking\n\n-> SIGN UP THROUGH SHIVWORKS HERE <-\nInstructor Bio:\nCraig Douglas (aka “SouthNarc”) is the founder of ShivWorks\, a consortium of like-minded professionals devoted to training and product development in the emerging field of interdisciplinary problem-solving for self-defense.
