This past weekend Ben and I had the opportunity to take a course called ECQC or Extreme Close Quarter Concepts with Shivworks with Craig Douglas a.k.a. Southnarc. It was a great course with lots of information mostly pertaining to the solving the problem that 0-5 attacks create....what is that you ask? Well repetitive orthodox shooting and training can perpetuate these shortcomings in a entanglement. I.E. Floating the gun, not understanding proper extension or compression based on the proximity of the threat.
In THIS episode however, we dive into the Friday night portion of the course where we went over Craigs M.U.C. portion which included how to deselect yourself by understanding the criminal assault paradigm, pre contact cues, and general awareness. Please LISTEN and share with your friends and family.
Below is the ECQC Course Overview from the Shivworks website.
The ShivWorks Extreme Close Quarter Concepts (ECQC) course is a two and a half day (20 hours) block of instruction which focuses on a multi-disciplinary approach to building functional, combative handgun skills at zero to five feet. The course is designed to instill core concepts of seamless integration and provide the platform for aggressive problem solving during a life or death struggle. A heavy emphasis is placed upon commonality of body mechanics between skill sub-sets, which means that all combative software is reinforcing. Once the student’s skill sets are initially ingrained, the participant will be stress inoculated with force on force drills utilizing marking cartridges and protective equipment.
Topics covered include:
Day One (4 hours):
– Criminal Assault Paradigm
– Unequal Initiative Events
– Managing Unknown Contacts

– Introduction to the components of the Combative Drawstroke
– Building the #2 position in live-fire
– Firing throughout the horizontal line of presentation

– Grounded basics
Day Three (8 hours):
– Challenging the potential attacker
– Preemptive weapon access
– Multiple attackers

– ECQ handgun retention out of holster
– Handgun recovery
