BE PREPARED FOR THE UNEXPECTED

This sequence of force escalation is:

• Empty-handed (striking & grappling)

• to impact tool (i.e. stick or handload)

• to edged weapon (i.e. knife)

• to firearm (pistol, rifle, shotgun)

Thus, due to the likelihood of facing weapons in street crime, both weapons usage and defense against weapons, are primary concerns in the WDS curriculum.

While WDS represents the upper echelon in tactical defense training, the student is still strongly encouraged to make the physical and mental pursuit of self-defense skills a continuous, lifelong endeavor. The benefits gained not only include improved personal and family safety, but also the developmental progress of the mind, body, and spirit.
