SLAMBAGS ARE BACK!
...Now in 2 Different Sizes:
GUIDED CHAOS-BRANDED
FULL SIZE SLAMBAGS

[10"-11" across; approximately 4 pounds.]
-------------------------------------------------------------
GUIDED CHAOS-BRANDED
COMPACT SIZE SLAMBAGS

[7.5"-8.5" across; approximately 3 pounds.]

The new COMPACT SIZE Slambag is perfect for those with smaller hands or who desire a lighter training tool.
Develop **crushing** hand power for strikes and gouges

"Over the years I've learned 5 different Iron Palm methods. Your Slam Bag is hands down - pun intended - the best method for fast effective results."

"The Slambag is AMAZING!"

"It, along with the DVDs arrived the night before I left for a several day's business trip to Spokane - a 7 hr drive.  That evening I watched John's tutorial on same [The Slambag DVD]. As soon as I began using it, I was HOOKED!  Far from paying attention to John's admonition to start with just 2-3 times/week, I have been using it daily. I love its portability - one can be working on the strengthening/grasping/striking activities anywhere. Of course it went along and was used on my business trip.
 
I have long practiced grasping/striking activities against heavy bags and using different hand grips - round balls, piston push grips, etc. However, the Slam bag supersedes ALL of these in my opinion. It does it ALL and more. Just passing it from left to right hands and clawing it - either sideways or pancake style helps create strength and coordination. I have also been practicing some of John's strike/body dropping techniques with it.  I am seeking to develop more impact power with shorter travel distance to impact.
 
I know that the Slambag is really a "low-tech" piece of equipment, but I even surprised myself at how overwhelmed I was as soon as I started using it.
 
It's the same kind of feeling I get (and I am certain that both you and John understand this) when Brad shows me a new attacking combination - using the very same basic strikes I have been practicing for over two decades of JDT - and I am just thrilled to begin training with this variation which incorporates nothing more than basics - as opposed to some "flavor of the month" (and irrelevant in real life) idea from most martial arts systems.
 
And it TOTALLY accords with what I said originally - that the practices of Guided Chaos are true COMPANIONS to those of Brad's JDT system.
 
The Slam Bag...will  immediately take its place alongside my Irish Blackthorn Walking Stick, Applegate Fairbairn training knife (and a real one) and Koga Baton.
 
Many, many thanks!"
--David H. Smith, Student of Professor Bradley Steiner

"This ain't your daddy's iron palm bag!"
Instead of "toughening" your hands with a typical iron palm bag and possibly developing painful arthritis as well as thick, ugly, useless callouses, why not turn your hand strikes into "smart bombs" so that all your chops, punches, gouges, rips and tears explode with devastating crushing power and dead-on free-form timing and accuracy! (The most overlooked qualities in hand weapon development).

The Guided Chaos method of strike training using Dropping Force greatly improves hand strength, timing, balance, and sudden impact power while simultaneously developing your tissue and tendon strength without creating ugly and useless "makiwara" callouses.


Basic drills and principles for properly using the Slam Bag can be found in our short Slam Bag Workout DVD, or if you want a comprehensive Slam Bag training regimen (as well as most of the key Guided Chaos drills for developing adaptive fighting attributes of Balance, Body Unity, Pliability, Sensitivity and Reactive Freedom) you may want to check out the Guided Chaos Combat Conditioning DVD. (Note: the Combat Conditioning DVD is a continuous workout video with music and limited explanation intended for those already having a basic familiarity with Guided Chaos principles. See "Which DVD Should I Get" for complete info.)

The Slam Bag now comes with the trademarked GUIDED CHAOS logo branded in! Much nicer looking than the ones seen in our Attackproof Companion Video Part 1 DVD, these tough, tan, heavily stitched cowhide leather bags are ideal for practicing full-power Dropping strikes and developing tremendous hand strength with hit-and-crush drills (as seen in our Slam Bag Workout DVD--NOT INCLUDED) while also developing timing, which is critical to effective Dropping. The Slambags are round, bean-filled and approximately 4 pounds, measuring 10-11 inches across. Don't train harder, train smarter with the Guided Chaos Slam Bag.

NOTE: SLAMBAGS WILL BEGIN SHIPPING SATURDAY DECEMBER 17.

NOTE: small blemishes in the finish of these handsome, natural tan leather bags are normal. Please note that shipping adds approx. 1 pound.

TWO DISCOUNTED COMBOS:
COMBO 1:   Your 1-2 Knockout Punch...


THE ATTACKPROOF COMPANION,

PART ONE

In PART ONE you will learn simple, effective techniques created for U.S. soldiers in World War II and used in thousands of documented police and military conflicts, modified by John Perkins and enhanced by Guided Chaos dynamic motion principles.

PART ONE COVERS IN DEPTH:
  • Awareness and avoidance
  • Warrior mentality
  • Simple striking tools and Close Combat methodology.
  • Everything you ever wanted to know about developing Dropping Energy to enhance your hitting power.
  • Dramatically increase hitting speed, power, balance and footwork skills that you can practice on your own–and put to use immediately.
  • Master the above in 6 weeks (with diligent training).
This material is absolutely essential as it provides all the basic weaponry you'll need to understand the more advanced principles of Guided Chaos in parts TWO and THREE.
"Your system of using the Dropping Energy on striking has tripled the power of my strikes..."

"I have followed the instructions on your dvds [Guided Chaos Combatives & Attackproof Companion Part 1], what a difference, it is hard to believe even as I am doing it how well your system works."
--Roderick, Los Angeles

GUIDED CHAOS COMBATIVES

Shot on Day 3 of the 2014 Boot Camp, the GUIDED CHAOS COMBATIVES DVD is the perfect complement to the Attackproof Companion Part 1 DVD but with UPDATED and far more focused material. It also is the essential training guide for those seeking GCC Course Completion or GCC Instructor Certification. Additionally, all the methodologies on the GCC DVDs are prerequisites for GC 1st degree. Although there is some overlap between Part 1 and the GCC DVD, they each have critical training not found in the other.
"WOW."     I just watched like 4 minutes of the new GCC video. WOW. I've been using and training GCC since 2000 and GC since 2003. You guys know my story:) I'm actually speechless. It's that good and has evolved that much! Just the little course correction, I watched on the GCC chop (saying "hi") is a gold mine and could be a life saver when fractions of a second count. I'm very honored to be considered part of the GC family. I'm so impressed that you never stop refining and finding ways to make this art teachable to all kinds of people. Love you guys." --Bob

SCHOOL REVIEWS:
"From the teachers to the attitude to the style of the art itself, this is the best school I've ever attended."
"From the teachers to the attitude to the style of the art itself, this is the best school I've ever attended.

At 36, I've moved often and so had a chance to sample but never master a number of styles from kung fu to tai chi, aikido, brazilian jiu-jitsu, shotokan and tae kwon do; hands down this has been the best experience. I don't feel the need to ever study another style.

In eight classes, I am now far better prepared to survive an actual life-threatening attack than I've ever been. And yet, I could easily and happily spend the next ten years studying Guided Chaos, working to master the subtleties of the art.

Also, everyone I've worked with, from Grandmaster John Perkins to Lt. Col. Al Ridenhour to Matt Kovsky, has been wildly skilled and easy to work with. A variety of styles at the instructional level has led to fast and effective learning and new personal abilities.

If you're into martial arts - especially real-life applications, this is worth every second of the time it takes to check out."

--Devon White
"This art is everything you always wanted to know to survive. Realistic and straight to the point! This is life changing!"
--Mike McNulty
"This school offers a unique, effective and fun martial art with more weekend hours for adults to train than almost any martial arts school in Westchester or Manhattan. You can practically attend a mini-seminar every weekend. Or just drop in for a one hour class as your schedule allows (weekdays and/or weekends) - it is a flexible environment.

The instructors coauthored the book “Attack Proof” and have a history of teaching people of various ages and physical abilities to defend themselves and avoid dangerous situations in the shortest time possible. They teach only what is practical and avoid techniques that look good, but can’t be utilized under chaotic conditions. That may sound like common sense, but it is rare because many martial artists get distracted by learning endless variations on flashy moves that look cool, but are of questionable practical value- you won’t find those here.

This is a great group of people teaching/learning a great art. What they teach is immediately useful, but the principals can be further developed over a lifetime. We are very lucky to have this school in Westchester."
--Brian Crowley
"Guided Chaos was created by John Perkins, who, as a law enforcement officer, crime scene expert and unsanctioned pit fighter, combined his involvement in over 100 deadly fights with his lifetime of study of different martial arts styles. The result is a fighting system that is exceptionally effective in real-world situations because every move has its basis in subduing a real opponent or opponents, and not in following a stylized form, kata, or scripted attack. I learned more about defending myself in my first month with Guided Chaos than I had in my many years of training with any other style."
--David Teich
"This is the stuff you want to know for that moment you hope you never have. I've read about, observed, and analyzed a lot of different "styles" in the hope of finding the real deal when it comes to self-defense. Well I found it in Guided Chaos. No sport, no trophies, no BS. This is the real deal!!

And Elmsford is the Headquarters for this. Everything is taught here from basic combatives (WW2 style) to Contact Flow to advanced ground fighting (which is frighteningly effective and deadly) and combat "dirty" boxing with occasionally some practical weapons (stick, knife) for good measure. The Conditioning drills are taught with attention to detail and application to real fighting.

The class sizes are small at present, which makes for a lot of individual attention from Masters Lt. Col. Al Ridenhour and Matt Kovsky. Grandmaster John Perkins also shows up regularly to reinforce what the Masters have taught.

I am taking advantage of the small classes because this won't last long. I would strongly recommend that anyone interested in having a fighting chance to survive the unthinkable come check out what the Elmsford Guided Chaos Training Center has to offer. It truly is priceless."
--Roberto Casanova
"Guided Chaos is the only training in my 15 plus years of Corrections that translates into real world application, period."

"Guided Chaos is the only thing that has worked for me in real life situations. Unless you are 6'3" and 285 lbs of muscle, most of the Defensive Tactics stuff (ok all of the Defensive Tactics stuff) will get you hurt. And even if you are that big and strong, there is always  someone bigger and stronger and there may be a lot of them. Nothing like dealing with one guy and it turns into a free for all with all his buddies. This is where you literally need to 'adapt or die' and Guided Chaos is the only training in my 15 plus years of Corrections that translates into real world application, period."
---Bob Miller, GC Instructor, Corrections Officer at the largest facility in Oregon
