Sat 12th November- Tactical Edge Tomahawk Seminar, the BEST defence, 6 Guthrie Port, Arbroath. This is an OPEN SEMINAR & is open to martial artists of ANY style, & you DON'T need weapons training to attend!
We'll be exploring the use of the Tomahawk & drawing from Native American, Tactical Edge, & ComTech methods. The Tomahawk has enjoyed a resurgence in popularity in Special Forces circles, seeing use in Iraq & Afghanistan as a breaching tool & close combat weapon. We'll also be looking at dual weapons skills, studying 'Hawk & knife methods.
Like ANYTHING we do in Tactical Edge & ComTech everything on the seminar will be conceptual in nature, so even if you'll never carry a Tomahawk the course will give you attribute development drills that will benefit your 'normal' training; plus it's just plain fun & interesting to study something 'different'.
The seminar is only £20 a head, so contact Mark Davies now to book spaces. Spaces will be limited & on a first come first served basis. Anyone attending should bring either a wooden Kama to use as a trainer, or preferably one of Cold Steels new axe trainers-http://www.coldsteel-uk.com/store/Axe-Trainer.html

New 'Tactical Edge Concepts' instructors courses coming soon!
'Tactical Edge Concepts' courses are our new instructors certifications. They are aimed at Martial Arts Instructors who aren't looking to teach our Tactical Edge system, but who would like to expand what they can teach their students in their existing classes. Our Tactical Edge Concepts courses will cover specific areas of the Tactical Edge system that you can teach as part of your normal classes to expand your students abilities & knowledge.
The first course will be the 'Tactical Edge- Edged Weapons Concepts Instructor' certification. This course will equip Blackbelts & Instructors from ANY style with an effective & comprehensive syllabus to teach within their classes. Because Tactical Edge is a conceptual system, everything we do in the Edged Weapons course can be seamlessly adapted to work with almost any tool; Tactical Flashlight, pen, rolled up magazine etc- even empty hands. We'll cover skill building drills that are great fun, & that turbocharge a students co-ordination in empty hands skills; as well as actual application work.
Our Tactical Edge Concepts instructor certifications are open to Blackbelts & Instructors of ANY style, & are intensive weekend certifications. If you would like to become a certified Tactical Edge- Edged Weapons Concepts Instructor, contact Mark Davies now; as spaces will be very limited!
