Hi all,

Very interesting report. Not sure how valuable anything learnt in 3 days will be. But then again they may already have a great foundation in unarmed tactics from their general training regimen, so it may work for them.

I guess they think they will have ample opportunity to practice their techniques on the street

.

I'm not surprised that Aikido was chosen however, as it is taught to both the Tokyo and Osaka police forces for similar reasons.

Train Hard!
