RETENTION, AVOIDING THE GROUND, TAKE DOWNS AND STRIKING.

The Natural Progression of Law Enforcement Assaults: Striking, Clinch, and Ground.

Statistics show that most assaults against untrained officers escalate to the ground. However, following the logic of distance management in confrontations, officers will often face the clinch before the ground. The clinch represents a critical stage in the progression of an assault—when the striking range is breached, and the officer finds themselves inside the “kill zone.”

The armed clinch fighting is one of the most neglected aspects of law enforcement training. It happened when distance management failed, leaving officers vulnerable to strikes, takedowns, stabs, and the risk of losing their duty weapon.

Recognizing the importance of this scenario, Andre Quiles has developed a curriculum that bridges the gap between striking and grappling, using a combination of Muay Thai and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu clinch techniques initially created for the Brazilian police. Over the years, this training has been refined to address the specific needs of law enforcement professionals worldwide.

This training focuses on essential skills, including:

  • Clinch Striking and Weapon Retention: Techniques to control the engagement and protect the duty weapon and possible subjects disarming.
  • Restraining Tactics and Creating Space: Methods to safely draw a weapon or address malfunctions under pressure.
  • Muay Thai Clinch tools for Law Enforcement.
  • Takedowns and Takedown Defenses: These are straightforward and effective techniques to maintain control and neutralize threats quickly.
  • Levels of Force Management: Training to ensure officers can adapt and respond appropriately to evolving situations.

By emphasizing simplicity, practicality, and control, this training equips officers to navigate the high-stakes clinch fighting environment effectively. With Andre Quiles’ decades of expertise as a professional Vale Tudo fighter, this program ensures officers can dominate the clinch, prevent escalation to the ground, and confidently protect themselves and others.
