SDS-CONCEPT- a comprehensive system
The SDS-Concept is a discrete system and is not part of an already existing concept which allows it to be integrated in any system of close combat or self defense. Practitioners and instructors from all different styles of the martial arts and self defense learn the SDS-Concept, as it provides them with a simple system of armed fighting to integrate in their styles.
SDS-Concept is the first system worldwide which has been devised for self defense with everyday items.
The S. D. S Concept involves all possible circumstances and techniques for self-defense against various weapons as well as survival and defense strategies, conflict management, the understanding of the psychology behind self defense, the understanding of different points of importance on the body, the development of movement and reflexes, legwork and flexibility, various striking techniques, weapon handling, improvised weapons, pain-control, holds and joint control, knife tactics, defense against stick attacks, the protection of third persons, fixation and control techniques, attack strategies, direct individual attacks, combination attacks, attacks through the trapping of the opponent, immobilisation techniques and many more.
The goal of the S. D. S Concept is to provide the user with an assortment of self defense techniques in a short period of time that can be used in the everyday.
However, the S. D. S Concept is not simply a mixture of various techniques, as it follows very distinct concepts and principles.
The main challenge in the development of this system was ensuring everyone and anyone the possibility of improving their survival and self defense possibilities using simple tools and any level of experience. The various techniques need to work in any position( sitting, standing etc), they need to be both effective and useful in one ' s everyday life, and always be available when needed( some other weapons cannot be used in this sense, be it for legal reasons or because they are too dangerous, too expensive or too complicated to use).
Self Defense Sticks
Small sticks have been used in all sorts of self defense systems such as the Takayuki Kubota ' s kubotan, the dulo and palm stick in eskrima / kali / arnis as well as the yawara stick in judo. The use of various objects in self defense is not a new phenomenon and has been explored for centuries in different martial arts.
Unfortunately, none of these systems have been able to establish themselves as separate from the various martial arts and are often seen as secondary or unfinished by-products.
The SDS-Concept does not only use the stick. Any object can take its place- spoons, books, shoes, torches, mobile phones, magazines …
Using everyday items is an useful alternative, especially in countries where strict laws forbid carrying a Kubotan. Almost every item can become part of a defense action. Things may be used to amplify a punch, to add to range, to protect your hand, to focus your power and so on and so forth.
During both our training session and our seminars we recommend changing the object that you are practicing with regularly to better become accustomed to the different objects ' properties.
