Breaking down the triggers, body movements, positions and weapons used in an attack to craft and practice dependable responses.

Professor Karnofsky’s winter seminar will be on the “Street Blitz” attack. During his seminar he will dissect specific attacks and their limits while analyzing various responses and their limits. Mr. Karnofsky will challenge those participating to examine their thought process, build strategies for conflict through the use of scenario response training.
