ECQB - Extrem Close Quarter Battle

Course description

The training goal is to survive the confrontation in an ECQB SITUATION

The seminar participants learn how to react effectively in the sometimes confusing, extreme near distance. They use all available weapons, items and tools needed to eliminate the opponent.
In an ECQB position you are often without any weapons, so we also show the seminar participants possible punches, kicks, choking and biting techniques.

It is very helpful to master the handling of the combat knife. The seminar will train easy-to-learn but highly effective cuts, punches and punching techniques.

The HRT universal knife combat includes simple techniques that are also very effective with various other items such as :

Kubotan related items, a feldspar, an ax - a tomahawk, a machete, a flashlight, handy iron bars or wooden sticks, sturdy wooden sticks, glass bottles, a hammer, a screwdriver, pliers, sturdy pens, a keychain - etc. It all can be applied.
