Police, military, and security personnel have jobs that place them at risk of physical confrontation. There are many Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques ideal for controlling and subduing another person which are especially suited for situations that may arise in these lines of work.
Since it is so common that officers are assaulted in situations where they are unjustified or unable to use their weapons in their defense, it is imperative that they be empowered with a very effective, court-defensible system of self-defense that will ensure their safety in the worst case scenarios that they are so likely to encounter.
Any law enforcement officer who is not capable of defending him or herself against a physical attack will display less confidence than one who can. This weak “officer presence” is easily detectable and will often cause a suspect to challenge the authority of the officer. Once an officer learns the techniques that are designed to keep them safe during the worst case scenarios, he or she no longer needs to fear the suspect, and for this reason. This newly-found confidence will lead to enhanced officer presence which will be immediately detected by the suspects making them less likely to assault the officer to begin with.
It is a fact that any law enforcement officer who is not confident in their ability to control a suspect with their hands is more prone to resort to their weapons, prematurely, and all it takes is one excessive force incident to dramatically alter the stability of a police department and its relationship with the community they serve.
