Personal Combatives: Level 2-Alpha – Adelaide

Learn how to apply the principles of Kinetic Fighting–Integrated Combat to control your fear and deal with common street weapons.

In this course (Level 2-Alpha in the KEF–IC syllabus), you will discover not only the essential components of surviving an armed attack, but how to arm yourself — legally — for the purpose. A mix of theory and practice, these lessons will help you hone fundamental skill sets (including those learned in our Self-Protection Essentials course*, for those who have done it) and integrate Kinetic Fighting’s core principles and survival strategies into your thinking.

In this module you will develop a working knowledge of the following key aspects of self-protection:

• Behavioural threat awareness and weapon detection
• Weapon characteristics and vulnerabilities to exploit
• Distancing concepts specific to weapons
• Weapon suppression and control methods 
• Legal considerations for possession and use of self-protection tools 
• Improvisation and effective use of legal tools for defence.

Prerequisites: None; beginners welcome

BONUS: Free ground-fighting skill development session, 1 hour **
