Testimonials

  • My DT Cadre and I met Nik at the ILEETA 2016 Conference in Chicago where he was teaching and Edged Weapons Disarms course. This was the finest course on the subject matter that we have attended. Our agency is currently scheduling Nik and his staff at S2 to teach a Instructors Certification Course at our department. With a rise in the presence of edged weapons on subjects we arrest our agency will not be behind the curve.

He has an amazing command of functional tactics and teaches in a progressive method that is unique to him and his team!

Actually, it really isn’t a question but more like a complaint that embodies phrases such as: “I can’t do this because of my _________,” or “This is too hard for me, I can’t keep up _________”, […]
