2016 Year in Review: Training
Due to some financial concerns, I did less training this year compared to the last few years. In 2016, I attended 196.5 hours of professional training. This does not include practice time at home, or live fire “practice” at a shooting range. It does not include the jiu-jitsu training I’m getting three times a week. Here’s […]
Knife Concealment Techniques and Force on Force Laundry Basket Scenario
Two of the things I like the most about multi-disciplinary fight-focused training is learning different things and then combining them to solve contextual problems. Last Saturday I attended this “season’s” first Force on Force class with QSI Training. I was able to combine some old skills with something I learned last month from the Weaponology class from […]
Should We Train How to Fight After Being Startled?
Earlier this week I wrote about the startle reflex and the startle response. Rob Pincus of ICE Training discusses these topics at length in his book and his course work.

3×3 Review: QSI Training August 2016 Partner Tactics
QSI Training’s Partner Tactics class represents the top of their curriculum. It incorporates almost everything they teach and then adds another person to the mix. As usual, Erik Pakieser and his team did a good job extending what students have already learned and applying it to the focus of more advanced classes. Some of the material is specific […]
3×3 Review: QSI Training Vehicle Defense Class

3×3 Review: QSI Training Emergency Trauma Care Class
When properly and narrowly defined, almost anyone can be trained to administer effective trauma care in case of an emergency — violent or otherwise. The Emergency Trauma Class taught by Erik Pakieser of QSI Training was a great introductory class for people unfamiliar with trauma care, and perhaps completely unfamiliar with fight focused training. This […]

That’s What She said: Strong Hand or Super-Strong Hand?
We hosted a trauma class two weeks ago. One of my favorite moments was a story the instructor (Robert Schoening of LHGK – he’s fantastic – take his class if you get the opportunity) told about how some students bristled at the term “weak side” and asserted that “they only had strong sides…but one side was […]
