About Strike Combatives Psalm 144

Strike Combatives Psalm 144 is a Christian faith-based offensive fighting system for self-defense. During training, students will use the Bible as a resource for evangelizing, discipleship, conversion, justification, and sanctification in the teachings of Jesus Christ. This style of offense/self-defense is founded on U.S. Army Combatives, Shotocan-Kenpo, Military Taekwondo, Wing Chun, Hapkido, Judo, and ground fighting. Therefore, Strike Combatives utilizes various combatives and martial arts techniques to stop an attacker, and or attackers to protect oneself, family members, friends, and bystanders. Psalm 144 reads (paraphrased) "You have prepared my hands for war and my fists for fighting." Once again, welcome to Srike Combatives. New recruits can progress from white belt to black belt in 24-months of active training.
