SFC Combatives - Hand, Stick, Gun, Knife
Our SFC Combatives seminars are taught by instructor, Clint Bodungen (Unarmed Combatives Level 11 / 2nd Degree Blackbelt, Knife Combatives Level 10 / 1st Degree Blackbelt)and at least once a year by Hock Hochheim himself. These seminars are a great introduction to the SFC Combatives system, or for those already an SFC member and looking to advance in rank, to include instructorships.
About SFC Combatives
From Epiphany to Doctrine
I saw it all coming together into the true essence of combat. I came to understand the only reason I learned and taught fighting systems was to defeat two targets, the enemy soldier and the criminal, not to pass on grandmaster dynasties, become a trophy/sport champion or to preserve art for the sake of tradition.

There are two ways to defeat the enemy, less-than-lethal means and lethal means. In short-sometimes we take them prisoner and sometimes we have to kill them. A competent warrior can do both as legally, morally and ethically needed in a proper use-of-force continuum. Every conflict is situational. If you want to defeat the enemy soldier or the criminal, this is the system for you. No one system, such as karate for one, or no one discipline, such as military science, holds the answers to every scenario. I began to forge a course that bridges the gap between the police, the military, the martial artists and the aware citizenry. This education never ends and is ever-changing. To structure it as realistically as possible, I used a “reverse-engineering” approach by starting with the fight first and working backward in probabilities. After decades of real world, hand-on experience and training, in the Year 2000, I began to organize all my fighting tactics and strategies into one comprehensive program called the Close Quarter Combatives Group. The CQCG is made up of four separate, primary foundations, each a 10 level training program:
- Unarmed Combatives Course
- Knife/Counter-Knife Course
- SDMS Impact Weapon Course
- Gun/Counter-Gun Course
I still teach, promote and rank people in these individual courses because there will always be people interested in only one or two topics and not the bigger, CQC package. I will also continue to teach and ramrod the Pacific Archipelago Combatives Course. Unique to the PAC will be double sticks and the espada y daga (stick and knife) material. Soldiers, citizens and police are simply not interested in double stick drills and the like, so they do not appear in the CQCG Course. I also teach two other courses called:
CQC Group Training Mission Progression Overview
All training is expressed in a “Modular Concept.” A module includes learning the basics of execution of a particular tactic, troubleshooting common counters to the tactic, skill and flow drill development of the tactic, counters, and then using the tactic in standing, kneeling and ground positions fighting with and/or against unarmed, stick, knife and gun weaponry. I believe in an organization of material that follows this macro to micro progression: Epiphany. It is here for you already. Are you ready for the next step?
