This material is from a rare open training session in outer London from June 2018. Participants had never trained with me before, apart from Peter, Oli
When I view videos of violent encounters (e.g. knife attacks) it is notable that usually failure occurs not because a person hasn’t trained in a system, but because there is a perceptual structural failure in their response. The body already contains movement solutions to problems that arise in life-or-death situations because that is what it evolved to do. Nevertheless, we need to know what these innate solutions are so that we can train the perceptual and structural system to improve what is already there. That is why this session focuses on
