Hey folks, I'll be off of the board for a little bit as I am leaving today for Fort Benning GA for some training to get certification in the Modern Army Combatives Program. I'll be back around Feb 2nd or 3rd.
The MACP is a good program since it is based on MMA techniques and lots of sparring and grappling. I'm really getting this training and certification to set myself up for a possible career teaching it. I'll be getting the level 3 certification this time, which will allow me to run the combatives program for a whole Army base, to run courses and to certify others in it. It's all about the paperwork if ya know what I mean.
See ya'll soon (sooner if I can get online down there!).
Vince

I'm back from a nice trip. I got through the level 3 training with the Modern Army Combatives System. I also got to roll a bit today with UFC vet Kevin (cant rememer his last name... a big black guy who got KO'd by Paul Buenatello in a rescent UFC). He was a very nice guy.
I'm glad to see the Army is incorperating a system based on not only good techniques but realistic training.
