For Military

The men and women of the U.S. armed forces have the most dangerous job on the planet when they are called into action.  For a soldier, hand-to-hand combat skills are a necessary part of their every-day lives.  Unlike law enforcement officers who need self defense or martial arts skills, soldiers need lethal effectiveness.

Although the primary form of military combat is based on firearms, the ability to skillfully manipulate a blunt or edged weapon may prove invaluable in the chaos of battle.

Martial Arts For Sport or Self Defense?

Despite the popularity of MMA style fighting, this kind of training is not deigned for combat, it is for ring fighting.  MMA does not include weapons fighting or multiple attacker scenarios, it is based on the competitive environment where there are rules and technical limitations.  Training in MMA can provide a good workout, but it will not help you defend against an armed attacker or multiple opponents.
