A.C.E. Edged Weapon Defence
A.C.E. Edged Weapon Defence is a specialized training program designed to equip law enforcement officers with practical and effective strategies for surviving edged weapon encounters.
Program Overview
Developed by Sean Carter, founder of Control Concepts Canada, A.C.E. Edged Weapons Defence is a field-tested training system built for real-world performance.
The A.C.E. system is a three-step framework:
-
Avoid- Move off the path of the attack or penetrate to intercept.
-
Control- Neutralize the delivery system (the weapon arm).
-
Eliminate- Stop the threat through decisive, lawful action.
Refined through years of instruction, testing, and feedback from thousands of officers, the program is shaped by subject matter experts and designed for rapid, easy, learning. A.C.E. is unique in its integration of the collapsible baton as a use-of-force option in edged-weapon encounters, making it one of the most adaptable and operationally relevant systems available.
A.C.E. Edged Weapon Defence is a 1-Day Intensive course. $245.00
