@xfitgirlwa is completing her post-academy field training now but she still made some time to get some work in our #defensivetactics room. Russian tie to ankle pick from @nateorch10p, offset VNR from @gracieuniversityhq, handcuffing transition from @bellevuewapolicerecruiting. The Vacular Neck Restraint (or 裸絞 in Japanese) is a grappling technique that has been used for several centuries. When properly applied, it is an effective and safe maneuver that will render a combative or potentially assaultive person unconscious in 4-7 seconds. There are millions of applications of this and other variations of carotid artery occlusion performed by #jiujitsu and #judo practitioners all over the world each year without any injury. Practitioners of those arts are often surprised to find out that many police departments place this technique at the same level of force as using a firearm. The bilateral compression of the carotid arteries allow a smaller person a realistic chance to survive and control someone who is much bigger and stronger. ????#bellevue #police #selfdefense #fitness #trainweeklyorfightweakly #protectbellevuedotcom
