Advanced Weapons Skills For Law Enforcement

Now I have to admit that the job that these men and women have to do on a day in and day out basis in dangerous. They are in and out of every imaginable situation you can think of. But what a Law Enforcement Officer Must ask themselves is am I prepared for the situation should it arise. One of the most dangerous situations I come to think of is a knife wielding attacker. Over the years I have witnessed many training situations and programs for the Law Enforcement community. Yet when it comes to edged weapons, blades, knives, even razorblades. There is very little time that is spent on actually learning to defend oneself against a knife wielding attacker. That is why Master JC Cabiero has implemented Advanced Weapons training for Law Enforcement within the confines of Combat SerCuerdas Escrima. So why the need for Advanced Weapons training. Take a look around more and more people are arming themselves with advanced weapons look at all the clip knives you see in the pockets of people on the street.

Advanced Weapons Training Increases Your Ability To React

In Combat SerCuerdas Advanced Weapons Training you are put to the test in every imaginable situation designes primarily for the Law Enforcement community. You guy’s are out there and are involved in dangerous situations on a daily basis but are you actually training yourselves to survive a knife wielding attacker? These attacks can come at any moment in an confrontation with a suspect or even a traffic stop. Someone that uses a knife has some advanced weapons skills in their possession and generally carries more than one at all times i know I do. Combat SerCuerdas comes from Cabales Serrada Escrima a Filipino martial art a weapons based art. Where you have 12 basic angles of attack. Where you learn to defend against these attacks with a wide range of weaponry. It can be a rattan stick, ASP Baton, Baseball Bat, Pocket Knife, Machete, you name it we train to defend against it. You might be saying to your self I have my pistol and don’tbring a knife to a gun fight. A knife wielding attacker is a dangerous individual you need Advanced Weapons skills to defend against these attacks.

Advanced Weapons Training Developmental Skills Are A Must 

I do not want to get you mad but I am going to say it anyway. Many Law Enforcement Officers can be lazy and just put in their hours 8 and skate so to speak. Yeah I know most shifts are 12 hours and laziness is not always the case. But running and lifting weights doing tri-athilons does not enhance ones Advanced Weapons defensive training skills. Yes it does give one an edge and endurance but lacks the reactionary training skill set that is needed in a knife attack. Their are so many viable methods to obtain the skills. Filipino Martial Arts in my opinion is an excellent venue to pursue since they are weapon based arts. I could say that Combat SerCuerdas is the only place to obtain Advanced Weapons training but I would be telling a lie. Just be aware that you need to enhance and gear your selves for intensive Advanced Weapons training and seek out a martial art school or instructor and get busy.
