 THURSDAY 10am-4pm:
 
GC COMBATIVES LOGOGUIDED CHAOS COMBATIVES (GCC)
WALK OUT WITH SKILLS YOU CAN PUT TO USE IMMEDIATELY. MASTER THEM IN 6 WEEKS (with diligent training).

There are other World War II combative systems out there.  Some are authentic and some are watered-down MacDojo nonsense. The best of these derive from the simple, effective techniques created for U.S. soldiers in World War II and used in thousands of documented police and military conflicts. GUIDED CHAOS COMBATIVES takes the best of these and supercharges them with power, balance and footwork principles from the main art of Guided Chaos. Understand that the original Close Quarters Combat developed by Colonel Rex Applegate, William Donovan and members of the OSS was lethal all by itself (it was devised because of a perceived inadequacy in our troops' Hand to Hand training compared to that of Japanese Soldiers schooled in Judo and Karate. This led to a training overhaul by our own military in the late 1930's and used in countless close engagements against Japanese troops in World War II.) Guided Chaos Combatives is just the first level of Guided Chaos. It teaches you the basic weaponry in a short period of time.
  • Introduction to Guided Chaos Combatives
  • Awareness: 
Mind-setting for Life and Death Confrontations
  • Lethal vs. Non-Lethal Tactics
  • The Personal Comfort Zone
  • Close Combat Universal Entry (CCUE)
  • The Fright Reaction
  • Multiple Attacker Strategies and Concepts
  • 6 assault defense scenarios

IF YOU PLAN ON ATTENDING JUST ONE DAY AND YOUR INTEREST IS IN SIMPLE, EASY-TO-LEARN SELF-DEFENSE, WE RECOMMEND YOU REGISTER FOR THURSDAY.


 FRIDAY 10am-4pm:

GUIDED CHAOS (GC)
-HOW TO PENETRATE A CHANGING DEFENSE
-HOW TO DEFEND AGAINST A CHANGING ATTACK


The missing link between internal and external martial arts.
How to apply  internal principles  to external combat almost immediately.


DAY 2 OF OUR SEMINAR IMMERSES YOU IN THE MORE ADVANCED ART OF GUIDED CHAOS--a revolutionary system that frees your body and mind to fight with the natural  animal motion best suited for humans. GUIDED CHAOS COMBATIVES gives you the elementary weaponry. GUIDED CHAOS itself supercharges them with principles from tai chi (internal energy) and Native American fighting concepts ("anything goes" adaptability). Rather than using robotic, regimented or sportive techniques, it focuses on pure improvisation to help you survive the unchoreographed chaos that characterizes every real life and death struggle. These methods are found nowhere else.

Friday covers unique drills for developing the 5 Main Principles:
• Dynamic Balance
• Looseness & Pliability
• Body Unity & Power
• Energy Sensitivity
• Combat Adaptability & Improvisation for Survival

 
 FRIDAY IS RECOMMENDED FOR:

1) THOSE WHO HAVE A BACKGROUND IN MARTIAL ARTS OR ARE INTERESTED IN APPLYING INTERNAL SYSTEMS TO REAL COMBAT (TAI CHI, BAGUA, WING CHUN, ETC.)

2) ALL WHO WANT TO DEVELOP A LIFE-LONG MODALITY OF TRAINING THAT WILL TAKE THEM TO THE HIGHEST LEVELS OF COMBAT MASTERY IN THE SHORTEST PERIOD OF TIME (BEGINNERS WELCOME--THOUGH WE RECOMMEND TAKING THURSDAY ALSO AS A FOUNDATION).



 SATURDAY 9am-3pm:

 
GUIDED CHAOS GROUNDFIGHTING PLUS ADVANCED CONTACT FLOW

Like the rest of the art, GCGF has no techniques to lock up the mind. All REAL fights are unpatterned and unpredictable anyway. We emphasize principles of evasion and sensitivity that dictate you NOT attempt to control, grapple, lock up or otherwise directly engage the enemy (this leaves you vulnerable to multiple attackers).
GCGF is not a sport. There's no "sparring" or point-fighting. You learn to fight ONLY to save your life. We teach reactive freedom, so that your body snakes and slithers from control, like the way a mongoose or enraged alley cat moves. This is counter to most grappling philosophies which are not mirrored in nature. When was the last time you saw a leopard put a figure 4 lock on an antelope? They rake with claws and teeth, going for the throat and the kill. To save your life or the life of a loved one, we teach free-flowing sledgehammer kicks from the ground that to the uninformed looks like breakdancing--but is deadly serious and far simpler, along with strikes to the eyes and throat with no controlling or submission moves or counter-moves. The last thing you need is to tie up with a bigger and stronger attacker. Disable the enemy and escape. See our comprehensive Groundfighting article for more info.


 SUNDAY 10am-4pm:

 
KNIFE FIGHTING, GUN AND STICK DEFENSES

From the military to civilians and even the police-- knife, gun and stick fighting is often taught unrealistically. Based on the brutal, bloody, forensic homicide research of former detective John Perkins plus Perkins' over 100 seriously violent arrests, this comprehensive component of the complete Guided Chaos system separates film fantasy from forensic fact and dojo delusions from real combat. The training provides you effectives methods based on actual combat while exposing popular gun disarms and flowery stick and knife defenses that can get you killed. This training includes:

   Drills: Knife vs. Knife Variations--Myth vs. Reality
   Native American (West Virginian Hill Country)
        Knife Fighting

   Drills: Knife vs. Knife Agility Drill
   Drills: Knife (or Pen) vs. Multiple Attackers
   Stand-up Kicking vs. The Knife
   Groundfighting vs. the Knife
   Drills: Bare-handed vs. the Knife
   Cane vs Knife
   Cane Fighting from the Ground vs. Knife
   Drills: Cane fighting From the Ground
   Drills: Cane vs. Multiple Attackers in Close Quarters
   Bare-hands to Handguns: Fantasy vs. Reality
   Accessing Your Gun Under Pressure
   Gun defenses

...and much, much more
