Do you want to learn about using a handgun up close & personal? How about using a handgun if you are grounded? Do you want to learn pre-fight tactics? Don't want to have to resort to that in the real world, how about learning how to manage the unknown contact(s) (MUC) from beyond arms length? I have used the MUC skill to convince strangers to give up on soliciting me from about 15 yards away. If so, this is the class & instructor you need to seek out.
SouthNarc will be here teaching Practical Unarmed Combatives (PUC) & Extreme Close Quarters Concepts 1 & 2 (ECQC 1&2) on Oct 3, 4, & 5. The ECQC class will be at the Impactzone in Houston.
If you want to take just PUC, you can, no previous martial arts experience required. The cost is $100 for 4 hours of instruction. The ECQC 1&2 cost is $400 for 20 hours of instruction. You can also take PUC & ECQC. The pre-registration fee is 1/2 the class fee. PUC starts at 6:00 PM on Friday, October 3rd. ECQC starts about 8:00 AM on Saturday & Sunday, October 4 &5th.
Check out the AAR's, search for ECQC or SouthNarc and you'll find a lot of good feedback on these courses.
Shoot me an email at GLOCKFAN at COMCAST dot NET (replace the "at" with @ & "dot" with . & remove all out the spaces) & I will forward you the class location maps, confirmed times, and deposit info. for this class.

Practical Unarmed Combat Core Concepts Module
The ShivWorks Practical Unarmed Combat core concepts module is a 4
hour fundamental block of instruction that introduces the student to the
parameters and context of criminal assault. The student will learn how criminals actually assault citizens in the real world and will initially focus on strategies and tactics for challenging and preempting the potential assailant. The instruction will then shift to immediate action procedures for spontaneous assault and how to regain initiative with non-stylized basic tools.
Topics covered include:
· Parameters and objectives of criminal assault
· Awareness and task fixation
· Kinesic and verbal challenge strategies for the potential assailant
· Recognizing pre-assault cues
· Hard focus scan procedures
· Preemptive striking
· Default position
· Basic blows and regaining initiative
Equipment required for the class is a cup and mouthpiece. Students are
encouraged to bring their own focus mitts or Thai pads.

Extreme Close Quarter Concepts I and II (ECQC I-II)
The ShivWorks Extreme Close Quarter Concepts I & II (ECQC 1&2) course is a 20 hour block of instruction which focuses on a multi-disciplinary approach to
building functional, combative handgun skills at zero to five feet. The course is designed to instill core concepts of seamless integration and provide the platform for aggressive problem solving during a life or death struggle. A heavy emphasis is placed upon commonality of body mechanics between skill sub-sets, which means that all combative software is reinforcing. Once the student’s skill sets are initially ingrained, the participant will be stress inoculated with force on force drills utilizing man-marking cartridges and protective equipment.
Topics covered include:
Block One
• Diagnostics
• Introduction to the components of the Combative Drawstroke
• Building the pectoral index in live-fire
• Firing throughout the horizontal line of presentation
• Off-hand fending positions
• Default position
• Basic empty hand blows
• Theory of in-fight weapon access
• Grounded basics
Block Two
• Challenging the potential attacker
• Preemptive weapon access
• Muzzle aversion within draw-stroke
• Negotiating the F.U.T.
• ECQ Handgun retention in holster
• ECQ handgun retention out of holster
• Handgun recovery
• Handgun striking
Equipment required:
Holster, pistol, two magazines, eye & ear protection, heavy sweatshirt or soft
body armor, mouthpiece and cup, 500 rounds of ammo.
This class is not recommended for beginning shooters and prior documented training or instructor approval is required.
Students should be relatively fit as this is a contact class. Most of the latter half of each day will be spent utilizing man marking cartridges and FIST helmets, to allow the students to gain confidence in applying their newly acquired skills against moving aggressive opponents.
Space is limited to insure a quality learning experience, so reserve your slot early!
I hope to see you there "Doing the Work"!
