This video by Tenicor features Craig Douglas of Shivworks explaining the Managing Unknown Contacts (MUK) strategy. It emphasizes proactive threat management by controlling distance, movement, and verbal boundaries to prevent ambushes and criminal setups. Key techniques include establishing hard verbal boundaries, using sudden volume ('Bang Without the Flash'), arcing to maintain vision, and fencing with hands for defense.

This video details Craig Douglas's ECQC (Extreme Close Quarter Concepts) course, focusing on retention shooting techniques like the Thumb Pectoral Index (TPI). TPI ensures consistent shot placement, prevents self-injury, and maintains weapon control during close-range struggles. The course progresses through live-fire drills, emphasizing transitions from retention to full extension based on threat proximity, and incorporates vital fending positions and safety protocols.

This video debunks unrealistic movie-style knife fighting, emphasizing combat speed and biomechanical reality. Craig Douglas of ShivWorks demonstrates that effective defense involves simple, brutal actions like a jab and immediate evasion, rather than complex, slow-motion sequences. The core message is to train practically for real-world threats, avoiding techniques that only look good on camera.

This video demonstrates a close-quarters gun disarm technique taught by Craig Douglas (SouthNarc) of ShivWorks. The method focuses on realistic scenarios where an attacker uses a firearm as an extension of power at close range. Key elements include using verbal agility, feigned supplication, and a specific physical maneuver to move the weapon off-muzzle and then 'cut' it from the attacker's grip using the wrist as a fulcrum. This technique is highlighted as being particularly effective in confined spaces.
