SUMMARY:Self-Protection Essentials – Melbourne
DESCRIPTION:Train in Paul Cale’s world-leading close-combat program used by Australian Special Forces & Army\, tailored for everyday self-protection.\n\n\n\nThe Personal Combatives courses in the KEF–IC syllabus use the same principles and core techniques as the Australian Army Combatives Program (ACP). The difference? You learn only what’s applicable to tackling violence as a civilian. Battlefield rules of engagement are replaced with the laws of self-defence\, and a soldier’s weapon systems are replaced with your body\, and whatever you can legally carry or find at hand. But the mindset remains the same. \nA veteran of multiple combat tours with the 2nd Commando Regiment\, former Sergeant Paul Cale literally rewrote the book on Special Forces Close-Quarter Fighting (CQF). He then created Infantry Integrated Combat (ICC)\, which later became the foundation for ACP — now the official close-combat training system for Australia’s general Army. \nKinetic Fighting is the culmination of all Cale’s work in combatives\, and the name used to describe the method underpinning his military programs. Whether you want to learn mental strategies and tactical applications to make your existing martial arts skills more effective\, or you need to build effective self-protection skills from the ground up\, this course is for you. \nYou may even want to take your first steps toward a KEF–IC black belt. KEF–IC (Kinetic Fighting–Integrated Combat) is a new program within the Australian Army that combines tactical combative skills with free sparring/rolling and the competitive elements of the Integrated Combat Clubs\, which are located at Army barracks Australia-wide. As an extension of ACP\, KEF–IC provides the training principles and core syllabus required to give soldiers a survival skill set\, and mindset to match. Every element of KEF–IC is focused toward real combat and was taught to non-military personnel for the first time in 2019. \nON THIS COURSE\, KEF–IC INSTRUCTOR AJ KEARNS WILL TEACH CALE’S BATTLE-PROVEN PRINCIPLES AND SURVIVAL TACTICS\, WHICH ARE:\n\nAdaptable to any martial art or professional operational procedure\nSuitable for civilians & front-line operators\, from beginners to professionals\nBacked by Paul Cale’s 25+ years of career military experience & 40 years in martial arts\, as well as AJ’s own extensive experience and qualifications.\n\n\n\nCOURSE DETAILS:\n\n\nIn this module (known as Alpha in the KEF–IC syllabus)\, you will cover the key aspects of surviving — and preventing — violent confrontation: mindset\, tactics\, legal and moral considerations\, and functional\, high-percentage techniques. You will also discover how KEF–IC’s battlefield origins inform everything that you learn\, and how to adapt its proven principles to your own abilities and existing skill-sets (if applicable). \nPrerequisites: None – complete beginners welcome* \n  \nBOOK NOW ONLINE! \n\n\n  \n\n* If you have previously completed either module and would like to do a refresher\, book a ‘Refresh Attendee’ ticket for only $50! (Note: no course book is provided and proof of previous course completion is required.)

This centuries-old warfighting method includes the use of weapons such as swords and sticks\, along with a wide range of techniques\, from strikes to throws and joint locks. \nBeyond the training regimen\, the camp itinerary allows plenty of time for participants to relax\, see the sights and sample the local restaurants and night-life. \nCAMP TICKET INCLUDES:\n\nReturn International flights to Thailand\nDomestic flights & transfers within Thailand\n6 nights’ hotel accommodation\nDaily breakfasts\nDaily lunch (traditional local food)\nTwo daily training sessions in Army Combatives (Kinetic Fighting–Integrated Combat method)\, Muay Thai & Muay Boran\nA KEF training knife & Thailand Combatives Camp T-shirt\nCertificates of completion (or qualification\, if eligible).\n\n  \nBOOK NOW!\n  \nFREQUENTLY ASKED QUESTIONS:\nQ: How long and how frequent are the training sessions? \nA: Each morning there will be a Muay Thai/Muay Boran morning session of 2.5 hours’ duration.

One day will be entirely devoted to an introductory tactical pistol shooting course\, with neither the Muay Thai or Army Combatives taking place on that day. The final day will be used for revision and testing.  \nQ: Do I need a shooting licence or any firearms experience to undertake the tactical pistol course? \n A: No\, you do not need any type of firearms license or any shooting experience whatsoever to participate in the tactical shooting — just a willingness to learn and a sensible attitude.

He holds black belts in 8 different fighting systems\, with a total of 14 dan (degree) grades.

This year’s course will give all participants a thorough grounding in Kinetic’s complete public syllabus\, designed for regular delivery as part of a gym/dojo program\, as well as the ACP Clearing Knife Level 1 module. \nOver the two days\, additional time will be dedicated to qualification training for new instructors in the KEF–IC Alpha–Echo modules\, while seasoned instructors will also be introduced to ACP Clearing Knife Level 2.* \nCourse Details:\nCurrent and budding instructors will experience a complete induction into the newly minted Kinetic Army Combatives/KEF–IC ‘day-to-day’ training syllabus\, developing a deep understanding of the method used to build and test combatives competency from scratch. You’ll refine your skills and learn to teach the material hands-on\, while being mentored by KEF’s highly experienced instructors. \nNew instructors will also be assessed on their delivery of modules Alpha to Echo (depending on experience in each) and be qualified to teach the next module in the syllabus above their current teaching qualification. As part of the learning and qualification process\, your lesson delivery will be evaluated by both Combatives Master Trainers (CMTs) and fellow trainees\, including currently licensed KEF–IC Instructors. \nHeading up the coaching alongside Paul Cale (KEF–IC/ACP creator\, Australian Defence Force Martial Arts Association Head Coach and former Commando Sergeant) will be the spearheads of the syllabus roll-out\, Senior KEF–IC Instructors Chris Fechner and Trent Buffett. \nThere will be an optional group dinner held at a local venue on the evening of 26 October — please RSVP as per the instructions in your ticket confirmation email if you would like to join in.

SUMMARY:Army Combatives Program: Knife\, Level 1 – Hunter Valley
DESCRIPTION:This 3-hour crash course in knife awareness\, tactics and skills was designed for soldier-survival as part of the Australian Army Combatives Program used by the ADF.\nThe fact is\, most people need very little training to dramatically increase their chances of survival if confronted with a knife assault. \nTo that end\, former Commando Sergeant and creator of the Australian Army Combatives Program (ACP)\, Paul Cale\, developed this course to better equip front-line personnel with the skills to ‘survive knives’. \nThe course\, officially known as ‘ACP Clearing Knife – Level One’\, covers knife manipulation and defence techniques\, leaving you with a practical understanding of how knives are used in violent attacks\, and how to counter the prevalent assault tactics and techniques. It is essential fast-track training for those who may face knife threats in their line of work and/or living environment. \nPaul knows his stuff. He’s been a bouncer\, social worker and Special Forces soldier\, who’s been shot at\, bombed\, bloodied and assaulted with blades. He was a team leader for Australia’s top counter-terrorism unit\, TAG–East\, and has taught special operations teams around Australia.

SUMMARY:Army Combatives Program: Knife\, Level 1 – Bowral
DESCRIPTION:This 3-hour crash course in knife awareness\, tactics and skills was designed for soldier-survival as part of the Australian Army Combatives Program used by the ADF.\nThe fact is\, most people need very little training to dramatically increase their chances of survival if confronted with a knife assault. \nTo that end\, former Commando Sergeant and creator of the Australian Army Combatives Program (ACP)\, Paul Cale\, developed this course to better equip front-line personnel with the skills to ‘survive knives’. \nThe course\, officially known as ‘ACP Clearing Knife – Level One’\, covers knife manipulation and defence techniques\, leaving you with a practical understanding of how knives are used in violent attacks\, and how to counter the prevalent assault tactics and techniques. It is essential fast-track training for those who may face knife threats in their line of work and/or living environment. \nPaul knows his stuff. He’s been a bouncer\, social worker and Special Forces soldier\, who’s been shot at\, bombed\, bloodied and assaulted with blades. He was a team leader for Australia’s top counter-terrorism unit\, TAG–East\, and has taught special operations teams around Australia. For more than a decade\, he’s also been the Army’s top Subject Matter Expert on hand-to-hand combatives. \nPaul now teaches the public because he knows this is information that society needs\, right now. And\, because he can — he’s been there\, and survived. He’s trained for the worst\, been through it\, and trained thousands of others for it\, too. \nNow it’s your turn: take the rare opportunity to train with the guy the government goes to for close-combat solutions! \nOver three info-packed hours\, you will discover professionally proven survival principles and tactics\, which are: \n\nadaptable to any martial art or professional operational procedure\nsuitable for civilians & front-line operators\, from beginners to professionals\nbacked by Cale’s 25+ years of career military experience & 45 years in martial arts and self-protection\nused and supported by people from all walks of life and a broad range of industries (find out what others think of Paul’s courses\, HERE).\n\nThe topics covered include: \n\nEdged-weapon awareness and threat detection\nCharacteristics and vulnerabilities of a blade (and its user) to exploit\nManaging distancing to protect against weapons\nWeapon control and manipulation methods\nResponding with and without a protective weapon.\n\nPrerequisites: None — beginners welcome \n\nBOOK NOW!\n  \n* If you have already completed this course\, you may attend repeat sessions for only $50; this also includes a competency assessment and grading certificate (issued upon passing the criteria).

He holds black belts in 8 different fighting systems\, with a total of 14 dan (degree) grades. In addition to Brazilian jiu-jitsu (BJJ) and Kyokushin full-contact karate\, Paul has attained black-belt ranks in the two Olympic sports \nof judo and taekwondo; the competitive form of aikido\, Tomiki; the traditional aikido/aiki-budo methods of Yoshinkan and Gyokushin Ryu; and the multi-discipline Japanese combat sport of Kudo Daido Juku. \nA veteran of multiple combat deployments in Afghanistan and Iraq with the 2nd Commando Regiment\, Paul applied this extensive combat and martial arts experience to redevelop the Close-Quarter Fighting (CQF) program for Australia’s Special Operations Command from 2007. \nAfter his ADF service\, he founded Kinetic Fighting\, a company that provides tactical and skill-enhancement training to the ADF since 2013. During that time\, Paul developed the Australian Army Combatives Program (ACP)\, which is now the ADF’s official close-combat training system. Since 2022 he has also instructed members of Thailand’s military close-protection teams and police as head instructor for Trojan International Defense – Australia. \nPaul’s experience in combat sports is also broad: after many years of full-contact karate\, he became one of Australia’s earliest adopters of BJJ. then competed in Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) competition in its pioneering days. \nPost-army service\, he co-founded the Australian Institute of Sports (AIS) Combat Centre in 2013 and was part of its leadership team for several years. There he worked with Australia’s elite combat sports athletes as well as cyclists\, basketballers and others\, introducing Special Forces selection and leadership principles to the AIS. He was later named Head Coach for the Australian Defence Force Martial Arts Association (ADFMAA). \n  \nMORE ABOUT YOUR MUAY THAI INSTRUCTOR: \n \nAjahn (Master) Burklerk Pinsinchai is a Muay Thai legend: a former Thailand/Lumpinee champion\, he won 162 of his 170 fights. An exceptional teacher and technician\, he has 50 years’ experience and now trains \n fighters from across the globe at his own gym in Lampang. \nBurklerk was born in 1966 in the Buriram Province\, where his father initiated him into Muay Thai at the age of nine. In 1977 Burklerk moved to Bangkok to join the Pinsinchai camp owned by Lieutenant Savek Pinsinchai. He was initially too small to compete in Bangkok and fought mostly in Rangsit\, Samrong and Chaophraya. \nBurklerk emerged as a top fighter in 1983 when he won his first Thailand title. By 1987 he was considered one of the country’s best fighters\, having won two Thailand titles and being the reigning Lumpinee Stadium 112 lb champion. He was thus named ‘Lumpinee Fighter of the Year’ and received the ‘Yod Muay Fighter of the Year’ award. \nAfter losing his Lumpinee Stadium 112 lb belt in 1987\, Burklerk took a break of over three years in order to heal a chronic stomach disease. He came back in 1991 and quickly regained his elite fighter status\, reaching the final of the annual Isuzu Cup where he lost to Lakhin Wassandasit. He fought more sporadically during this second career\, but always with a high level of success against top opposition. \nFollowing his retirement\, Burklerk became a trainer and in 2008 he opened his gym in Lampang. He gives seminars in various countries and was awarded ‘Muay Thai Ambassador of the Year’ in 2010. His most successful student is Thepsutin Pumpanmuang (Thailand and Channel 7 champion).
