This is an interview with world class Combatives Instructor Mick Coup of WWW.CORECOMBATIVES.COM
part 1
FROM THE WEBSITE:
"Core Combatives (C2) training incorporates the most effective methods and concepts of self-protection originally developed for military and law enforcement usage, then carefully adapted for your requirements.
C2 training is concerned only with real encounters, and is designed to provide the maximum possible results in the minimum possible time.
C2 is a progressive integration of proven physical skills, developed only for actual use if conflict proves unavoidable. It is not merely a collection of self-defence techniques and sequences derived from various martial arts and combat sports."

Topics covered in the interview:
-how to generate power in strikes
-the psychology of power generation
-the place for MMA combat sports in reality based combative training
-what to focus on in training for maximum results
-why "thugs" are harder to fight than "martial artists"
-the importance of generating violent intent
-why traditional martial arts training fails to deliver results on such a massive scale
"Mick Coup is in my opinion one of the most innovative thinkers in the field of self protection at the moment and has certainly had the biggest influence on the way I think and train over the past year or so.
A compelling speaker and master trainer I hope you will get as much out of my conversations with Mick as I invariably do!
Richie"
