When it comes to self-defense on the street you must follow certain guidelines
to be able to claim that what you are doing is self-defense.

(1) Be the one trying to de-escalate the situation. (2) Protect yourself using any means necessary without the intent to hurt your adversary. (3) If you have to fight back then you must only use as much force as necessary.

The rough part is on the street you will most likely be the one on the defensive, weathering the storm of your attacker because on the street you are usually caught of guard by your attacker and usually you will be the smaller, weaker and sometimes the less athletic person in the confrontation.

So, with that understanding The CQC Grappling System's Self-Defense program is The B.S.R. System which is a self-defense system that works within the confines of the law for the smaller, weaker and the less athletic defender caught up in a confrontation against a combat athlete and we prove it.

The B.S.R. System is a defensive program that is based on a physically superior opponent attacking a smaller, weaker, non athletic defender who must survive until a mistake or an opportunity to counter happens which is why we start most of your learning from the inferior positions.

The B.S.R. System in the intermediate and advanced sections has a strong emphasis on how to deal with multiple attackers and weapons.  These sections are what makes up The CQC Grappling Combative Program.

Why Do We Train With Progressive Sparring?

Because it is the best way to develop the necessary reflexes needed for self-defense and it is the best way to develop your self-confidence plus it will let you know what you are capable of doing.

Progressive sparring is not hard sparring it is about increasing the resistance you put on your training partner with the safety of your training partner as the priority. Competing in a combat sport is not necessary to get really good at self-defense, but sparring with progressive resistance is.
