SUMMARY:Combative Grappling – Melbourne
DESCRIPTION:Train in Paul Cale’s world-leading close-combat program used by the Australian Special Forces & Army\, tailored for everyday self-protection.\nPURCHASE TICKETS \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 of 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 on real combat and was taught to non-military personnel for the first time in 2019. \nON THIS COURSE\, KEF–IC INSTRUCTOR JUSTIN QUBROSI 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 Justin’s own extensive experience and qualifications (see below Course Details)\n\n\nCOURSE DETAILS:\nThe Combative Grappling course teaches the essential tactics and techniques of grappling to overcome a committed assault — and how to adapt BJJ/sport grappling skills for survival\, and to fit policing Rules of Engagement (ROE). \nIn this session (the KEF–IC Echo module)\, you’ll learn how to out-grapple an opponent when lives are at stake\, rather than competition points. Over four hours\, you will hone vital strategies and skills to survive life-threatening situations where you are on the ground and under attack. You will also drill ground-fighting responses for when weapons are\, or could be\, in your assailant’s possession.   \nThe core skills and drills of this module provide the framework for adapting sport jiu-jitsu skills to combat real violence\, or learning the essentials from scratch. Together\, they develop the following key aspects of grappling for self-protection: \n\nTargeting your attacks to stop threats rapidly\nWeapon awareness\, pre-emptive response and counters\nSupine (guard) offence and recovery tactics\nShoulder lock variations and controls for key tactical positions\nClinching with a weapon\nYou will also receive a comprehensive training booklet\, along with a certificate and badge (which adheres to KEF–IC training gear) denoting your completion of this module in the Kinetic Fighting system.\n\nPrerequisites:  \n\n\n\n\n\nAge: 18+ (Kando members 15 and above welcome)\nExperience: None — beginners welcome\n\n  \nPURCHASE TICKETS \n

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!

DESCRIPTION:FACT: Most people need very little training to dramatically increase their chances of surviving an encounter with a knife-wielding attacker. \nSo\, there’s no need to give up your life — just give us two hours of it! \nIn return\, former Commando Sergeant and creator of the Australian Army Combatives Program\, Paul Cale\, will arm you with information and instruction that could save your life\, or that of a loved one. It’s the stuff everyone wishes they knew when one of those ‘it won’t happen to me’ situations actually happens. And on this course you’ll learn it quickly\, in a way that enhances recall. \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: for a limited time\, you have the rare opportunity to train with the guy the government goes to for close-combat solutions! \nOver two 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\nThreat awareness and weapon detection\nEmergency action principles\nEdged-weapon characteristics and vulnerabilities to exploit\nManaging distancing to protect against weapons\nWeapon suppression and control methods\nTools for self-protection.\n\nPrerequisites: None — beginners welcome \nBOOK 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: for a limited time\, you have the rare opportunity to train with the guy the government goes to for close-combat solutions! \nOver two 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\nThreat awareness and weapon detection\nEmergency action principles\nEdged-weapon characteristics and vulnerabilities to exploit\nManaging distancing to protect against weapons\nWeapon suppression and control methods\nTools for self-protection.\n\nPrerequisites: None — beginners welcome \n\n\n\n\nBOOK NOW!

SUMMARY:Self-Protection Essentials – Brisbane
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 Senior Instructor Piero Borgna 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 Piero’s own extensive experience and qualifications.\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  \n\n\nBOOK NOW – Save $30 and get a free KEF–IC cap!*\n  \n\n* Use the code ‘save30’ to book before 11:59pm on 11 August. Bring a friend for further discounts. \n** Book both Alpha and Bravo modules for further discounts. (If you have previously completed the course and would like to do a refresher\, contact us  for special pricing.) \n\n
