Cutting Edge Training

America’s Combatives and Liability Trainer Aut viam inveniam aut faciam

("I will either find a way or make one.")

The Cutting Edge of Training

We "functionalize combatives training."© 

We teach combatives.  Before, during, and after the conflict.  We focus on the moment where everything breaks, maximizing primal human functionality and performance (naturally hard-wired responses) in that chaotic, tense, and stressful environment.  We train you in an integrated-discipline approach to effectively problem-solve your combatives needs through principle-based tactics and force decision-making within the law/policy/ROE.  Recognizing the threat "in time," reacting and responding "on time" in a defensible manner, and the articulation needed to justify your actions--that is our mission and our speciality.

Practical.  Tactical.  Defensible.  And Functional.

Cutting Edge Training is a "Mobile Training Team"

CUTTING EDGE TRAINING provides local training encompassing weapon and combatives employment, tactics, and (police) liability prevention to police, military, and serious civilian practitioners nationally and internationally.

More than a blog!  Read the latest from our "Think Tank"

Designed from the street and field "in,"
not
the mat-room or firing range "out."

We positively impact your ability to prevail through mission capable, contextually relevant training.  We take the unique approach of researching your actual job needs before developing practical and achievable real-world solutions, rather than the common approach of developing a solution and then finding a need so the "solution" will sell.  Each course is relentlessly honed to ensure applicability -- whether it is Effective Combatives Problem-Solving (handgun, rifle, shotgun, police Defensive Tactics, CQB, CQD, impact weapons, less-lethal, force-on-force, deadly force), civil liability prevention, or officer safety and tactics.  This is the highest evolution of training possible...because it is training for those on the cutting edge...CUTTING EDGE TRAINING. 

"Cutting Edge."  There's a reason.

"If everybody is thinking alike, somebody isn't thinking."   --George S. Patton

Our programs are consistently unique.  Our track record of repeatedly developing revolutionary training that, years later, becomes the industry-wide standard--today's common sense--is why we are the "cutting edge of training."   We functionalize what before has always been complicated, and present it in a "practical, tactical, and defensible" format that is instantly applicable to your real-world.  We teach effective "primal functioning" in threat environments where there is a danger of "going primitive!"

  Why wait ten years when you can be trained in tomorrow's concepts, tactics, and skills TODAY!

The cutting edge of tactical, combatives, and liability prevention training! 
We prove it to you in every class we teach.
