SDMS is a single-handed (manos translates to hand) and double-handed tactical impact weapon combatives system broken down into two sub-categories called SMS and DMS. Impact grips are interchangeable while in combat. SMS covers single-handed grip tactics and strategies. DMS covers double-handed grip tactics and strategies.
Together, their seamless application comprises SDMS. Hock teaches the grips in an integrated format because as you train, you must be able to transition to both grips instantly as needed to maximize your survival against criminals and the enemy soldier.
This course is for martial artists, civilians, military and police looking for more than what is in their singular disciplines. Hock's has discovered after 30 years of research, training and experience that each group knows things about impact weaponry that the other groups do not know. Each can improve upon each other's training. Hock has forged this hybrid course, like his others, to further this body of knowledge and training. This course stands alone or is one-fourth of the Close Quarter Combat Group.
If you want to learn more about the use of impact weapons, this is the course for you. SDMS is developed for the seamless application of all single-handed and double-handed grip, impact weapon tactics in all ranges of standing, kneeling, and ground fighting, close quarter combat. SDMS instructs the entire spectrum of conflict from concealed ambush and visual presence, blocks, attacks, crowd control on through to deadly force as legally needed.
This is a tactical course about YOU striking, blocking, grappling and ground fighting with your impact weapon against someone unarmed or armed with ANY weapon. This is not about you learning the martial art of stick fighting versus stick fighting.
Stunning, Disarming, Grappling and Restraining. The primary reason you carry an expandable baton, even a straight stick, and have these tools in your home and car, is to protect yourself from a criminal's hand strikes, kicks, or his charge, or to protect yourself from the incoming knife attack, or blow from a hard, rigid-type weapon such as another club, a chair, a long gun, any weapon.
With this SDMS, you will learn:
- Impact weapon strategies used by military and police to quell crime and conflicts.
- Impact weapon tactics and strategies to intimidate and disperse opposing personnel.
- Expandable and fixed-straight stick stress quick draws.
- Impact weapon tactics to control and contain opponents.
- Application to bayonet tactics and strategies versus deadly threats.
- Disarming sticks and rifles and their counters! Weapon retention to prevent disarming.
- Filipino, Japanese, Asian, European and African stick vs. stick and stick vs. knife fighting.
- Unarmed tactics and strategies versus SDMS attacks. Fight against stick, knife and gun attacks!
- Use of force, legal issues, mental and physical preparation.
