Karl Stone is currently taking the PDR Class in my absence (due to work). Karl has been training in the PDR & S.P.E.A.R. System™ with me since 2004 and is a good coach.
This week they focused on developing functional 'street' close quarter striking tools and introduced the 'Range Rover' drill. Also warming up with some startle-flinch conversion drills, they did the 'Emotional Climate Training' drill for developing pre-contact cues from the world-reknowned 'Haymaker', the most common of street attacks. Then after training very isolated parts of the whole scenario/fight, they did a BMF (Ballistic MicroFight™) - the Big Bang moment of the start of the fight, where all the skills come together. The scenario was 'Bar Rage' - spilt pint, Bad Guy makes verbal threats and then attacks Good Guy with a Haymaker, as the Primary Initiation Attack. Good Guy flinches (due to sucker punch/relative surprise) and converts it into a 'Stun & Run' response. (Gross motor skills into Complex motor skills).
Good work guys!
