Police Officer Preparation & Law Enforcement Resource - Archive

I have received positive feedback from all over the world and many requests that I continue to post DT lessons on the Internet. Apparently there is a lack of training opportunities out there for many officers.

I will be updating every Monday now.

Just updated again. Thanks to all of you that have sent me e-mails stating that you appreciate the training. I will keep posting as long as people keep requesting it.

Cool stuff Paul. Just remember to get that security page up.. ;)

Yes, I am. As I say on the site there are literally thousands of different DT moves and the training is not uniform. Showing misc. techniques (many of which can be learned at martial arts dojos) does not give anyone an advantage over an officer. I never show moves designed to be used against law enforcement and I also do not cover counters on the site.

This is very true. I checked out your site(very well put together by the way)Most of the free exapmle vids I knew myself by yellow belt in HKD.

Nice site again.

Do you have a strong background in Aikido? So many moves there look like pretty much straight Aikido. Very nice site.

99% of my grappling comes from standard Jujitsu (the standing game) and Brazilian Jiu Jitsu (the ground game). I do use a popular wrist lock in Aikido but for the most part I am not a huge fan of the style (no ground game, its lacking for LEO use). Incidently I like Krav Maga for the disarming suspects. The techniques are simple and have been proven in the real world. I travel extensively outside the USA and I have to do so unarmed. I originally started to learn that style for that very reason.

Thanks for the compliment on the site. I am improving it on an almost daily basis in response to e-mails etc.

Very cool site man. I love martial arts of every kind. I studied Korean Tae Kwon Do from the 1988 U.S. Olympic team instructor, Kim. I used to go to tournaments a lot. Once I'm done with college I'll be getting very active with martial arts again. Do you have any suggestion of a great style to study that will work well with LE?

True. After 15+ years in law enforcement in a busy jurisdiction, I can tell you that 99% of hands on DT will be grappling. Therefore, the striking arts will not serve you as well. Occasionaly there is a strike or two worked in, but the fancy offensive katas are useless.

Jujitsu, BJJ, Sambo, Catch wrestling etc. The sport of submission grappling covers the entire ground game and incorporates many styles (and its addictive).

Awesome, thanks for the info!

I like Aikido for their joint locks and the flexibility of use but you are not kidding about the lack of a ground game. There are so few strategies in Aikido for ground recovery. Good stuff.
