ISR Matrix Civilian Programs
Matador Knife System
Matador Knife System, originally developed for those who are bound by duty and profession to go towards the danger and directly engage the threat, the Matador Knife System assures those who have been targeted and forced to face actual and imminent danger, the ability to STOP it.
Where most knife or blade based arts are generally all encompassing and express a vast array of techniques to address endless possibilities, the Matador Knife System has been specifically designed to STOP an aggressive and determined threat as efficiently as possible.
If you are looking for instruction and training with the knife as a personal protection tool, then look no further. The Matador Knife System is as much a systematic return to the knife as a survival tool as it is a disciplined methodology and dynamic approach that honors one's right and will to thrive.
Clutch Combatives
Clutch Combatives (ISR-CLUTCH) is a purely martial centered system of defense that includes and integrates less than lethal tools as well as the proper and efficient deployment of weapons and potentially lethal use of force when legally and morally warranted.
We inform, educate and prepare men and women how to better avoid, escape, address and if necessary, engage threats with and by the best means possible.
Clutch Combatives are a systematic approach to support one's personal protection and self-defense needs through and by whatever means are available to them.
The origins of Clutch Combatives are in the fighting methods developed for counter-terrorism speciality teams, security forces and Survival, Evasion, Resistance and Escape specialist seeking more efficient means to transition between apprehension tactics and lethal force.
Counter Assault Tactics
ISR Matrix Counter Assault Tactics (ISR-CAT) is specifically design and tailored for women seeking real world self-defense and personal protection for themselves and those they wish to protect from harm. It covers and to hand tactics as well as the proper use of less than lethal as well as improvised and lethal weapons from tactical, legal, and psychological perspectives.
ISR-CAT is a full spectrum self-defense system for women seeking the education and training necessary to protect themselves and those they care for.
ISR-CAT is based on and rooted in a tactical curriculum initially developed for smaller framed and female officers working in under cover roles and / or as part of special task forces and missions for state and federal law enforcement.
Physical Management
ISR Matrix Physical Management (ISR-PM) is centered in subject control and apprehension. The ISR Matrix PM system greatly reduced liability in training and especially in the workspace because it is able to justly escalate or rapidly de-escalate tactics according to proper, legal and morally defensible use of force.
ISR-PM is designed for licensed civilians and employed security personnel working in environments that require hands on subject control, restraint, and transportation such as executive protection, security personnel, paramedics, elderly and health care workers, hospital orderlies, event security personnel, bouncers and doormen but is not exclusively limited to those professions.
It's language, details and complex understanding show that many modern implementations have borrowed from it only superficially without the depths of its insights.”
