Police Karate

Police Karate is a humble attempt at trying to bring to light several aspects of the martial arts which could be of benefit to the police cadet as well as the veteran patrolman. This is not intended to be a “how to do it” book, although many techniques will be presented. It is meant to be an outline for the patrolman to view in two realms of self-defense. The utmost realm of self-defense and karate is the survival of the practitioner. The secondary realm of karate within police work must focus upon serving and protecting the general public. Although there is usually only a fine line between instances where the patrolman may be acting in the realm of survival or in the performance of his duties, this book will attempt to make a distinction between them and present relevant techniques for both.

Topics include: Calisthenics, Basic Techniques, Handcuffs, Frisk Search & Handcuffing, Handcuffing The Uncooperative, Weapons Training, 30” & 36” Baton Training, Weapons Disarming, and Street Encounters.
