TONIGHT @ TACTICAL EDGE EDINBURGH

We kicked off the class with a kettlebell and bodyweight warm up. From there we worked our combatives on the pads and then into take downs. We also worked the head tilt in isolation. Then we looked at the principles for dealing with grabs. We were working off the assumption that our verbal de-escalation has failed. There were 3 scenarios that we worked at the beginning. Firstly, we went pre-emptive, secondly a hand releases our clothing and goes to strike us, so we follow it back and trap it and strike. Thirdly, the attacker head butts us. So the guys worked through these scenarios and added in counter strikes and takedowns as appropriate. Then we went into threes and worked a multiple attacker drill where as we began dealing with the opponent who was grabbing us, the other attacker began striking us so we employed our straight blast limb destruction. Great effort by everyone and it was great to see some new guys and girls along.
