3-DAYS OF COMPREHENSIVE COMBAT TRAINING
COMBAT CAMP - FAIRBAIRN WWII GUTTER FIGHTING TRAINING
This event develops real combative capability.
Capability that matters when the people you love depend on you.
This is not about just memorizing disconnected techniques.
It is about awakening the part of you that already knows: you can act, you can protect, you can prevail.
This is owning the moment when you replace hesitation with certainty—when “maybe” becomes “I can.”
The cost of this event includes Training - Lodging - Meals
