You will learn about critical distance and how to effectively control the space between yourself and the threat, staying one step ahead if the situation escalates.

While learning gun disarm and retention techniques serves as a solid foundation, it is important to progress beyond mere techniques and embrace a principle-based approach. Basic techniques are akin to the first steps taken in kindergarten, but they should not be the endpoint of your training. True proficiency in this area requires active training to survive, which involves developing attributes, sensitivity, timing, and other essential elements. Additionally, gaining experience and investing significant training time are vital aspects of progressing in this domain.

Unfortunately, many programs in the industry focus solely on a limited set of disarming techniques, neglecting the broader educational elements needed for comprehensive training. The Applied Pummeling Program was specifically developed to address this gap by providing a complete spectrum of training and education. Its goal is to equip practitioners with the knowledge, skills, and attributes necessary to be effective in standing grappling encounters, going beyond a simple list of techniques. By offering a holistic and comprehensive approach, the Applied Pummeling Program seeks to rectify the lack of information and quality training in the industry, ultimately ensuring that practitioners receive the training they truly deserve.
