____T.A.C.T.I.C.A.L____

____*Combat Club*____

 

Training covers all aspects of personal protection – from pre fight situational awareness, threat recognition, adopting a passive stance, reading body language, de-escalating temperaments, fear management, choice words, distractions and psychological mind warfare.

 

The goal is verbal diffusion, conflict avoidance and keeping out of danger.

 

But if you have to turn to physical self-defense there's -provoked pre-emptive engagement, subduing and restraining people, targeting vital areas, body and joint manipulation, pressure points, tactical takedowns, choke outs, ground fighting, multiple attackers, outflanking, knife fighting, weapon disarming, strategic disengagement and post-conflict management.

 

There is an emphasis on no nonsense training and fighting, we don’t train to look good with fancy near impossible to pull off throws, kicks and moves that take years to develop and perfect, we teach natural responsive techniques that are simple and easy to remember, that are tried and tested, that are going to work!!

Krav Panim el Panim

Special Forces Combatives

KAPAP is an acronym for Krav Panim el Panim, translated as "face to face combat" The Kapap system was developed in the late 1930s and was taught to Israeli Military Personnel the term Kapap was used only within certain special forces units who needed more than basic training that they received in Krav Maga. Now it has evolved into a street-wise, modern day philosophy of combat, a direct approach to self protection, a bridge between the most effective tried & tested principles/techniques drawn from all types of martial arts.

Our primary study is focused on the 600 year old historical work of Master Fiore dei Liberi. The martial system Fiore laid down is very no-nonsense in approach and the Exiles learn the Art with this mentality in practice.

[SwordsmanB]

Greetings from the Society for the Study of Swordsmanship. We are a group that trains in Western Martial Arts (aka HEMA).

 

Classes are on Wednesday evenings from 7.30pm until 9.00pm at the Sheffield Jesus Centre, Broomspring Lane, Sheffield S10 2FB. The first month of classes is completely free, after that its £20 per month (correct as at 2014/15) with a pay as you go option if you prefer.

email: info@weaponskills.org

 

Western Martial Arts covers many forms of combat practiced throughout Western Europe and throughout history. It is usually associated with systems from the medieval and renaissance periods and can cover combat styles and weaponry used in warfare, and those used by civilians for duelling or self defence. Europe has a strong martial tradition (or a bloody and violent history depending on your perspective!) so there is no shortage of material from which we can extract techniques and recreate these arts.

 

We currently study:

• Longsword (a two-handed sword used in late medieval Europe)
  
• Rapier (a single-handed thrusting weapon from the Renaissance period)
  
• Staff (following a traditional rune based European system, aka Stáv)
  
• Dussack (A short, curved, training weapon similar to a Cutlass)
  

 

Some of our members also have experience in other combat forms such as smallsword, sabre, pugilism, tomahawk, cane/walking stick and more, and we revisit these systems from time to time.

 

Come along and give it a try!

 

We have 2 qualified (IL1) instructors and are members of the British Federation for Historical Swordplay (BFHS).
