What our customers are saying….
“As a combatives instructor for a major federal law enforcement agency, as well as a Marine Corps Martial Arts Instructor and a Brazilian Jiu Jitsu black belt, I have been exposed to numerous training systems designed for police officers, soldiers, and Marines. Of all of these, only one, RFLX Takedown Defense adequately addresses the threat of both untrained tackles and trained takedowns by assailants on the street or in the battlespace. This top-notch training fills a critical gap in modern combatives programs with a systematic, proven set of skills that are easily learned and retained.”

I am writing you to offer my recommendation and support for Mr. John Clarke and the RFLX Training Group. I have personally known and trained with John Clarke since 2006 at which time he was a police canine handler and special weapons and tactics operator with the Ft. Lauderdale Police Department, Ft. Lauderdale, Florida. John was, and continues to be a subject matter expert in the areas of police tactics and specifically, the grappling arts.
Mr. Clarke has compounded an impressive resume to include appearing in the Strike Force MMA competition, International SWAT Round-Up competitor, and many other accolades. Not only is Mr. Clarke a solid competitor, but a knowledgeable and attentive instructor as well.
Prior to training with Mr. Clarke, I had received personal training from the renowned Gracie family, as well as the American Top Team. With that frame of reference, I can personally attest to Mr. Clarke’s knowledge, skill, and ability. When authoring law enforcement materials concerning defensive tactics or grappling, Mr. Clarke is my first source for assistance.
As a professional police trainer with the utmost concern for officer safety and mission accomplishment; I offer my sincerest recommendation that the committee select Mr. Clarke as an instructor for the 2012 ILEETA Conference.
Respectfully,
I wanted to write a testimony from my experience with the Combat Wrestling system. I have been employed in the law enforcement field for over a decade. During my tenure with both local and Federal agencies, department conventional training methods have always lacked a crucial component, wrestling.
I have had the privilege of attending your Combat Wrestling Instructors certification in April 2010. The system you have founded is nothing short of fantastic and high speed. The instruction I received from you was professional, informative and first class. The system’s curriculum material fills all the voids in traditional law enforcement tactics and self defense methodologies. Going to the ground during a violent confrontation with an offender is a officers worst nightmare but a serious reality. The Combat Wrestling system will prepare all types of operators for a conflict on the ground utilizing a variety of superior tactics.
The Combat Wrestling system is a valuable resource for all law enforcement personnel, active military or civilians. I strongly recommend this training system to everyone that is serious about self defense, competition or enhancing department training. I have personally adopted the Combat Wrestling system as a staple in my own training, in my school (Hudson Valley HaganaH) and in my career as a Law Enforcement Official.
Sincerely,
As fitness professionals for over a decade and martial artists for more than fifteen years, we have come across several systems that have tried to capture an audience with false information and promises. We have partnered up with RFLX Training because of John Clarke’s ability to teach important skills to both novice and advanced people without sacrificing technique. John’s passion for teaching and training, his energy while presenting, his accessibility to students both during and post- seminars, makes all practitioners of the RFLX system better and safer as a result of their time with John. If you are looking to fill the void in your martial arts program, looking to make people safer in a close quarter combat situation, want the important people in your life to be safer and more confident on the street, the RFLX System is an absolute must to add to your program. One seminar with John and you will be more than just a believer, you will be a practitioner with skills you can use Day 1.
Training with John Clark has been one of the high points in my martial art development. His method of teaching is masterful. He communicates and demonstrates very effectively and efficiently. He is always prepared and knows how to use time effectively. His Combat Wrestling program really supercharged my transitions from standing to ground. John’s Combat Wrestling system truly is “the missing link”! Thanks John!!!!!
Combat Wrestling is the best ground fighting system I’ve found because it incorporates stand-up fighting and Haganah combat/street fighting skills into its curriculum. This hybrid system of Greco/Folkstyle/Freestyle wrestling uses only the best of the best techniques and skills. Combat Wrestling provides the skills and situational training for success – building success on the mat, in the cage, or on the street. Especially helpful to those (students) who are not a wrestler by nature or by experience. John Clarke is an awesome coach, a master instructor, and his level of professionalism and genuine passion for his program is evident in his presentation. I chose Combat Wrestling to offer my community because the skills are real, practical, user friendly, and bottom line they work! Not to mention, John is an awesome guy, a terrific family man, and stand-up individual.
