Developing the skills to achieve defensively accurate hits while applying minimal deviation control needed to stop the threat faster is key to realistic defensive training. Deviation is defined as where we want the bullet impact to go and where it can go. The target dictates the amount of deviation we can have in our bullets impact on the target. If you merely practice your skill and not the application of your skills (in context to a DCI) then you are merely “performing” skills in a bubble which will yield no real value in determining the real application of your skills in the worst-case scenario.Īnother aspect to the IDS training model is deviation. Evaluating your defensive skills in a counter ambush simulation is a crucial aspect to the skill development cycle. In IDS you will learn the skill development cycle, which is to Learn a skill, practice a skill(s), and then evaluate the application of your skills in context to a DCI in a counter ambush simulation. You can see right away how using this training model differs from the “high anticipation“ and “full control” aspect of the gaming training model. Threatening is, well, threatening the life of you or your loved one. Chaotic can be defined as the never-ending surprise and is not predictable. Surprising means you did not expect it to happen another word no anticipation whatsoever. A dynamic critical incident (DCI) is defined as chaotic, threatening, and surprising therefore applying your skills under these conditions is in context to the counter ambush training model and is training for the worst-case scenario.Īs humans we want control over any situation or circumstance, but the reality is, we very rarely will have control in a DCI. The Intuitive Defensive Shooting program is designed to help the shooter become more efficient in the context of a Dynamic Critical Incident and focuses on teaching and developing skills that work well with what the body does naturally. The IDS training philosophies and methodologies really flies in the face as to what has been considered the gold standard training methodologies for decades. The veil will be lifted, and the truth exposed. You may feel that you were fooled and mislead for so many years. It is not reality based defensive training.Īfter you take your first Intuitive Defensive Shooting class and are exposed to the counter ambush training model you may feel like Neo did after he ingested the red pill. Training with this model and labeling it defensive training is like taking the blue pill, living within the Matrix. Compare this training model with USPSA or IPSEC competitions and you will see a striking resemblance. Training based on “performance, control, and high anticipation, is a game or competition shooting and does not evaluate the application of your skills in a defensive context. The shooter knows exactly what they are going to shoot, exactly how many shots to take, and all with a high level of anticipation to shoot. This training model is based on performance in a controlled environment. This method of training was mainstream defensive training for decades (and still is in many schools and by trainers). These qualifications were measured by using shot timers and achieving a minimal score. So, how does this tie into firearms training? For decades most defensive training was modeled after law enforcement and military qualifications. Let us just say Neo does in fact find the truth. If you have not, go see it to find out what happens. Well, if you saw the movie then you know what happens. Morphias goes on to say that before Neo makes his decision, that the Matrix cannot be explained but rather experienced and all he was offering Neo was the truth. If he decided to take the red pill the truth of the Matrix would reveal itself. Morphias indicated to Neo that if he took the blue pill, he would continue life as he always had living within the Matrix. The decision simply (or not so simply) was to choose ingesting the “red” pill or the “blue” pill. In our story Neo is seated before Morphias (played by Laurence Fishburne) and is presented with a decision. He heard of the Matrix but was not sure if it was real or just a folk tale. Neo was a character who was always yearning to learn more and seek the truth in life. In the first installment of the three movies, the main character Neo (played by Keanu Reeves), is faced with a life changing decision. Most of us are familiar with the pop culture movie trilogy the “Matrix”. Training Decisions… Red Pill or Blue Pill
