NEW BOOK: REAL COMBAT JUDO by Barron Shepherd

Combat Judo was originally developed to address the needs of military personnel facing new hand-to-hand combat challenges as a way to ensure a streamlined, tested, and effective method of fighting. This approach combined the most suitable high-yield, low-risk judo techniques, ensuring the best physical training for working functional techniques against violent encounters. Combat Judo’s curriculum was designed to enable one to learn much faster and build muscle memory much quicker than the kind of learning in a standard classroom setting. Students learn the ability to react with the economy of energy and motion.

REAL COMBAT JUDO is a training manual that is structured in a very progressive manner enabling one to progress from beginner level throws and takedowns to more advanced applications making the techniques more effective. The lessons are meant to be followed in the order in which they are written. The principles of the mechanics of the throws are repeated heavily to aide in instilling them in the mind of the reader for quicker development of technique. The drills and training are designed so that what the students do in practice is how they can quickly respond and do in combat. For the experienced Judoka, Combat judo is designed to help bridge the gap between sport judo and combat based judo to ensure that it can be utilized effectively for today’s violent encounters.

Combat Judo’s streamlined method of combat also incorporates techniques with the knife and the tactical baton. The Knife and Baton techniques are laced with the Combat Judo’s empty hand techniques which allows for a quick and effective method of use of both knife and Tactical Baton.
