Adaptive Control – Axon’s Combatives Program
Espen Dahlen-Lervåg | ILEETA Conference & Expo
Course Length: 3:45 (Requires Registration)
Modern law enforcement encounters are dynamic, unpredictable, and rarely confined to a single tool, tactic, or environment. Yet much of our training remains siloed — separating combatives, electronic control devices, and decision-making into isolated blocks that fail to reflect real-world conditions.
In this ILEETA Learning Lab interview, Espen Dahlen-Lervåg, Chief Instructor for Global Training at Axon, introduces Adaptive Control, a realistic and scalable combatives system designed to integrate next-generation TASER devices into modern control and arrest training.
Grounded in empirical research and ecological learning principles, Adaptive Control shifts the focus away from technique memorization and toward principle-driven performance. Espen explains how constraints, problem-solving, and scenario-based learning allow officers to develop adaptable control strategies that hold up under pressure.
This conversation provides a clear preview of what attendees can expect from Espen’s session at the ILEETA Conference & Expo. Participants will gain insight into how Adaptive Control’s five pillars support better decision-making, improved control, and more resilient performance across a wide range of operational contexts.
Whether you are attending #ILEETA2026 or rethinking how combatives and less-lethal training are delivered in your agency, this episode reflects the innovation, realism, and instructional rigor that define the ILEETA training community.
