Description

Common Sense Self Defense Street Combat has been designed to meet the needs of today’s environment. CSSD/SC is not a particular way or style of martial art or fighting. It is principles of motion tied into conceptual patterns that are tempered by the complex legal liabilities of our current society. CSSD/SC then takes the conceptual patterns of motion and establishes a framework that allows one to see the conceptual usage of those patterns. CSSD/SC allows for the students to grow within themselves with universal concepts of offensive and defensive motions. No two students will seem the same for NO TWO PEOPLE ARE THE SAME. By using principles of motion all people can have self defense, for one will absorb what is useful to them and discard that which does not apply.In CSSD/SC we teach conceptual weapons usage. Unlike traditional empty hand arts, CSSD/SC teaches weapons usage FIRST to allow for understanding reality of combat. Knife teaches stick, stick teaches empty hand, a one way progression; for it doesn’t work in reverse.A proven axiom of combat is due to extreme stress, in situations like street combat, fine motor skills go down the tubes, leaving ONLY gross motor skills.Working within that concept, the Gunting Drone and the CRMIPT, both non cutting, non lethal impact tools based on knife motions has been developed. It works “like a knife”” the conceptual usage is the same, but the results are kept to the non lethal stage. There is no progression from non lethal to less than lethal nor from the less than lethal to the lethal stage. In places where knives or edged tools are forbidden, the use not safe nor allowed by ethics or personal beliefs, or liability concerns, this newly developed tool can fill in for a cutting tool. It lacks the ability to “stop” function in the same way but it has shown itself to be as effective in situations where no other tool is allowed or acceptable. And its carry is the same as a common pocket knife. The impact from such a small tool is concentrated in a small area and is directed to sensitive parts such as finger and hands amplifying the total power felt without needing great physical strength.http://www.cssdsc.com/Bram Frank’s experience:http://www.linkedin.com/pub/bram-frank/15/2b8/880
