What is Wrestling For Police?
Mission: Wrestling For Police (WFP) is training our Police and First Responders in the skill of fundamental wrestling. The concepts WFP uses to train our law enforcement and first responders are: hand control, hip control and leveraging momentum. These are the same concepts used to teach our junior league, high school, and division 1 college wrestling programs. Wrestling For Police is easy to learn, highly effective and no experience is needed. No complicated, long drawn out course to go through. We get right to the point, give easy instructions, demonstrate proper positioning and answer all the "what if's" in the process. WFP uses phrases like "if you forget everything else, do this". We give you easy to remember positions and words to remember even when you are in a bad spot. It's about survival and control, it's not about trying to memorize many complicated holds. There is absolutely nothing being offered for absolute control like Wrestling For Police is offering, guaranteed.
Experience: Wrestling For Police instructors have been hand selected and all been certified through Wrestling For Police to teach this course. They are lead by Gregory Day, a 28-year veteran police officer and wrestler who both works and teaches highway interdiction and is the lead defensive tactics instructor in the police academy.
Methodology: We teach proven techniques that all police can utilize regardless of age, physical stature and experience.
Wrestling For Police gives law enforcement the tools needed to have absolute control of an individual without having to use strikes, joint manipulation, knees on the neck, and choke holds. The low liability aspect of our training is a huge advantage and sets us apart from the other popular Defensive Tactics programs using jiu jitsu. Our goal at WFP is to reduce the amount of weapon deployments and use of deadly force during violent encounters.
The staff at Wrestling For Police have studied countless real interactions where the suspect and or the law enforcement officers have been seriously injured or even killed due to the lack of ability to control a violent or fleeing suspect. In every one of these scenarios, the same mistakes have been made. WFP has broken down our basic wrestling program into a curriculum where we correct these mistakes and train the proper use of our techniques. Applying the easy to learn basic wrestling techniques will change an uncontrollable encounter into a very controlled, safe situation.
This course is one of the most effective courses a first responder will ever go through. Unlike most of the Defensive Tactics programs, WFP does not require a vast number of complicated steps to be effective.
The Wrestling for Police program gives Law Enforcement and first responders a great tool for absolute control. The ability to control a combative person through basic wrestling lessens the likelihood of having to use OC, taser and most of all deadly force. Wrestling For Police is not designed to replace current defensive tactics programs but to enhance and supplement their current training. How to get noncompliant individuals into handcuffing position is taught. Handcuffing is NOT taught during this course. No gun belt or handcuffs required to attend the WFP course. Throughout our research, handcuffing is not the problem we are seeing. Not being able to control someone prior to handcuffing is the consistent problem we have seen time and time again. This is what sparked "Wrestling For Police" to become a part of the solution.
