WHAT IS C.O.B.R.A. SELF DEFENSE?
Real-World Personal Safety Training — Not Traditional Martial Arts
C.O.B.R.A. stands for Combat Objective Battle Ready Applications™. It is a reality-based self-defense system designed to help ordinary people prepare for real-world threats.
C.O.B.R.A.™ Is A Police Academy For Civilians
Combining experience in law enforcement, close quarter combat techniques, martial arts & the psychology of criminal intent the Combat Objective Battle Ready Applications, or C.O.B.R.A.™, self-defense system is a 10 Week Academy designed to be highly effective in real world situations where your survival is on the line.
Ex-street cop, sheriff and corrections officer, Joe Lewis-blackbelt, school owner, author and C.O.B.R.A.™ founder Chris Sutton has written the book (literally) on the pyschology of self-defense. This is not simply a collection of “cool moves,” but a complete system covering both the mental and physical aspects of self-defense with a unique emphasis on scenario training.
After over 40 years in the Martial Arts, Ken Morgan was introduced to Chris Sutton and realized that what Chris had developed was truly a unique training process that incorporated “real life” self defense without decades of training. In fact, having worked as a Bouncer, Body Guard and for Security Forces, Ken came to the belief that (although there are no real shortcuts) there is a path to true self defense that can be traveled in weeks NOT MONTHS OR YEARS!
NO BELTS. NO BOWING. NO COMPETITION.
The system combines situational awareness, criminal psychology, threat recognition, practical defensive responses, scenario training and decision-making under pressure.
Although each member of this group is an internationally recognized Black Belt they are just a small part of the World Wide network of C.O.B.R.A. Self Defense Instructors who have all recognized the importance of training for “Real Life” scenarios and incorporate proven “Street Level” techniques designed to help previously untrainied civilians become capable to protect themselves and the ones the love when they are threatened.
SELF DEFENSE STARTS BEFORE THE ATTACK
The sooner a potential problem is recognized, the more options a person may have. C.O.B.R.A. emphasizes both mental and physical preparation.
C.O.B.R.A. instructors are trained to show you how to detect threats before action is necessary as well as how to respond to threats if necessary.
WHY SCENARIO TRAINING MATTERS
Scenario training begins to bridge the gap between understanding a concept and applying it while under controlled pressure.
You can’t learn how to ride a bike by reading a book! You gotta do it to know what to do…C.O.B.R.A. gives the training and actually works with you hands on to ensure you know what to do and how to do it… it’s the best…it’s the only way!
WE RESPECT TRADITIONAL MARTIAL ARTS
Many, probably most, C.O.B.R.A. Instructors are Martial Arts Instructors. Martial arts can provide tremendous long-term benefits. C.O.B.R.A. has a different primary objective: personal protection proficiency in a limited training period.
THERE ARE NO GUARANTEES
Even with the “Best of the Best” law enforcement and protective service professionals, training improves options; it does not create invincibility. Avoid when you can. Escape when you can. Defend yourself when you must.
BE AWARE. BE PREPARED. HAVE OPTIONS.
