I'm just enjoying the show!
After past successes with ShivWorks classes, we decided to mix it up a little and run an edge weapon based course instead of the ECQC class we've done in the past. Here are the details:
ShivWorks Edge Weapons Overview
Lead Instructor: Southnarc
Date: July 14 -15 2012
Location: Nappanee Conservation Club, Nappanee Indiana
Cost: $350
To register contact me at tinman.in@gmail.com
A $200 deposit will be due to reserve your spot. The balance will be collected the first day of class. You must register at least 2 weeks prior to start of class. We will be limiting the class size, so register early.
The Edged Weapons Overview course is a 16 hour focused overview of knife application methods that will give the student a fundamental and broad understanding of edged weapons. Like all ShivWorks courses EWO is contextually underscored and emphasizes conceptual framework applied through the minimalist, functional toolbox. All software is presented from the “reductionist’s” point of view to maximize retention and maintenance efficiency. Topics to be covered in the course include:
Day One:
The Criminal Assault Paradigm
Managing Unknown Contacts
Default Position and basic blows
Tool Survey
Robust Folder Deployment
Theory of In-Fight Weapons Access
In-Extremis application
Day Two:
Mobility and Zoning Issues of equal initiative encounters
Plyometric Fighting Platform
Point Theory, forward and reverse grip
Conventional Edge introduction
Refining the narrow angle
Reverse Edge introduction
The Functional Support Hand
Specialty and Improvised Edged tools (push daggers, icepicks, screwdrivers, etc.). This module is largely based on what students bring to the class and wish to see addressed.
Equipment Required: Comfortable clothes, wrap-around eye protection, mouthpiece and cup, preferred carry knives.
Equipment recommended: Any training knives, folding or fixed the student may have along with their standard everyday carry gear, such as holsters or magazine pouches. A “red” or “blue” dummy gun is acceptable but NO LIVE FIREARMS ARE PERMITTED IN THE TRAINING ENVIRONMENT.
ShivWorks courses are mildly anaerobic in nature and the student should come with the understanding that they will be subjected to mild to greater than mild impact as part of the coursework.
Feel free to contact me if you have any questions.
Thanks,
Tinman....
