combat_intelligent_soldier2INTRODUCTION TO CMD'S COMBAT INTELLIGENT SOLDIER PROGRAM

Crazy Monkey Defense’s (CMD) Combat Intelligent Soldier (CIS) Program serves a duel role. Firstly its aim is to teach operators effective Unarmed Combatives skills that can be used in the field. Secondly to use the platform of CMD’s martial art program to teach operators how to enhance mental game and optimal emotional performance.


CMD's UNARMED COMBATIVES SOLDIER

Many have criticized the validity of training empty hand skills or unarmed ‘Combatives’ for modern Military applications. This is largely due to a general lack of understanding of the applicability of many of the skills both indirectly taught and the peak performance mindset developed through sparring. CMD-CIS’s Program addressed this misunderstanding.


SF Although an operator may not find himself fighting opponents empty hand regularly in a combat environment, (as critics point out) operators are required however to put ‘hands on’ in every mission. It’s during these times, transporting detainees from a target to a vehicle, controlling non-combatants, or putting flex cuffs on, etc that situations can go south and force escalation is required.

Those who have been trained in response and functional skills as taught in the CMD-CIS Program can defend themselves as required and therefore do not always have to resort to direct escalation of lethal force especially when not warranted. They can however control the situation if needed based on CMD-CIS’s reinforcement of positional and structural superiority FIRST. If you can dominate positionally you can then both deliver strikes (to subdue) or access weapons (ASP, Blackjack, knife, Glock) as needed.

CMD-CIS training not only allows for a operator to develop those attributes that can be validated under the pressure testing of a live performance environment in training, but CMD’s structure is ideal to translate to other functional battlefield skills such as running a long gun (For example an M4) or transition to a modified isosceles pistol posture which is almost identical to the CMD ‘hunchback’ position.

 


CMD's COMBAT INTELLIGENT SOLDIER PERFORMANCE TRAINING

Todays Soldier needs more than physical training, he needs to understand how to train his mind as much as he needs to understand how to manage his emotions.
There is no better platform to achieve mental game and optimal emotional states than through the platform of CMD-CIS’s unarmed Combatives Program.
In the Combat INTELLIGENT Soldier Program training the mind and emotions is deliberately cultivated off an effective perspective on achievement and the systematic use of effective cognitive skills.
A soldier can maximize performance by mastering thinking habits and emotional and physical states. CMD-CIS’s training methods are derived from applied performance psychology which are used in training professional and Olympic athletes. These skills are also applicable in other human-performance contexts.
The CMD-CIS Program not only enables a soldier to achieve Unarmed Combatives proficeincy- but because the training programme encompasses cognitive and emotional skills- it also helps a soldier perform better mentally and emotionally in the field.
This makes the Combat Intelligent Soldier program unparalleled in it’s effectiveness in enhancing soldier’s motivation both in a military training setting as well as in actual operational missions. Using the movement-based application of CMD’s functional martial arts training, the CMD-CIS Program brings a unique and innovative approach to Performance Enhancement for military personnel. It enables operators to create effective thinking habits and perform with confidence. They also improve attention to Important details- control physical, emotional, and mental responses to high-performance demands and allow soldiers to operate with a sense of clarity regarding immediate actions and their long-term results.
This is all achieved through an experiential, hands on CMD Unarmed Combatives based training approach. The operators through training in the CMD-CIS program are simultaneously introduced to all the competencies required to build a performance mental game and optimal emotional states while learning functional, dynamic and effective unarmed Combatives skills. This is truly a unique and innovative program for soldiers.

TESTIMONY

"Rodney’s mental training approach allowed every team member to reach their physical and mental potential! It also allowed everyone to keep a consistent performance level. Its effectiveness helped in particular situations where stress and frustration are a daily occurrence. Rodney has created whole mental game approach which turbo charged our self-confidence and focus under pressure. Two critical elements for the battlefield, as a team leader that I have personally enjoyed was "dealing with mental game problems” and been able to analyze them and implement a ‘purposeful thinking’ methodology. This simply opened another world for my guys and myself. The seminar was an awesome opportunity to gain new knowledge and apply it in live action. Simply, outstanding seminar. We are looking forward to seeing Rodney next year in 2008 for a follow up!!"

"I would like to thank Rodney for an awesome experience! What a seminar!!! Mental game is simply a very neglected area and I am very glad we had unique opportunity to start to work with such a professional mental game coach like Rodney. We got to learn a core mental game plan and several guidelines, which exceeded all our expectations!!! Learning to deal with highly stressful situations, fear, low self-confidence after mistakes are simply part of our everyday. However how to overcome them.... well - that’s another story all together. But now, thanks to Rodney, we have a logical step-by-step blueprint we can sue to overcome these mental obstacles! A new level of training has just begun for us. Huge thanks to Rodney for his professional approach - he is true leader who raised our performance levels to new heights!"
