I recently had the privilege to train with Coach Rodney King from South Africa. As a law enforcement officer/trainer, I am constantly looking for functional defensive tactics training. I found Rodney's material to be very functional and easy to learn and well suited to law enforcement.
 
Rodney is an excellent coach of both physical and mental strategies, I highly encourage all Law Enforcement Officer’s to train with him.

 Rodney King teaches skills that every Law Enforcement Officer should know.

He demonstrates how being off balance makes it easy for an attacker to push you around and ultimately knock you out. He shows the importance of being in balance by showing you proper stance and movement.  His CM Defense system allows you to defeat attackers punches and to follow up with a combination of your own. Added to this Rodney's Three Point Cover helps protect you while pushing through attackers strikes to get into the clinch.  Once in the clinch, Rodney shows you proper mechanics for delivery of devastating elbows, knee strikes, head butts, effective takedowns, and incapacitating chokes. Most importantly Rodney King has experimented with and proven that his tactics work, not in just a controlled training environment, but in the streets where it counts.

Today there are many L.E. Programs on the market, but very few offer the benefits of the CMD L.E. Program. As a Police officer and Provincial Police instructor I have had the chance to asses many of these programs. It is my opinion that CMD is a unique program, that is real, 100%functional & highly evolved.

Officers can progressively build up resistance, and develop honest working knowledge of how the concepts work in the real world or street environments. Also the majority of the program utilizes gross motor movements, different ranges, as well as covering ground tactics, and controls. These are positive concepts for most police agencies as the focus of CMD will allow officers to control a subject rather than harm him.

CMD Teaches concepts that are based on real world experiences, in a way that is progressive, realistic & allows officers to develop skill that work under pressure.
It provides a structure that is grounded in defence, yet allows officers to develop the actual abilities and confidence they will need to deal with a subject who is passive, active or full on assaulting the officer. CMD will fit into any current PDT or Arrest & control program, and safety is always an issue with the CMD trainers.

As a Police instructor I am absolutely delighted to see a program like CMD. It represents an evolution in Police training for Arrest and Control.

I challenge those who truly want the best possible training for themselves, and there officers to look at the CMD L.E. program.
