CQB is one of the most dangerous & rapidly changing environments. The common CQB environment is problematic & complicated. There are no fixed solutions or procedures, there are too many problems and those you will face all the time.
The root of the problem with CQB is due to its simple mechanism. It is short (Minus 25M), violent, and has immediate effects that promote or hinder the individual from being proactive. As a rule, CQB is all about finding an immediate solution to an immediate problem. Ultimately, it’s not about who runs faster, but who’s able to think the fastest and the clearest.
Tactical advantage
Our System
The methodology at Project Gecko is based on our field experience, influenced by science and dictated by the constantly changing reality of threats. With that being said, we at Project Gecko are committed to teach and develop our CQB system to the highest standards while sticking to science-based principles & facts.
The Origins
The origins of our methodology are in the Israeli tactics. Our CQB - lead instructor is a former Israeli SF member with an extended experience in the field of closed quarters. Our system is based on the Israeli COIN doctrine and our military experience in the IDF in one of its specialized units. The focus of the system is to deal with & solve certain situations from a tactical point of advantage while reducing the risk percentages. It´s a fast-paced, hands-on course that focuses on dynamic and accurate, surgical solutions.
Human behavior
It’s all about human performance. So is our system. We believe that it’s not all about the technique or equipment, but the human behind it. In extreme situations, such as violence, the human being is affected by the weight of emotions, mental capacity & several physical changes. From experience, these factors are what will eventually affect and turn the person into working in a default manner.
Not all tactics are behavior compliant, most tactics actually fall within the first moment of engagement. The tactics we use, as well as our approach, are backed by science and not only years of experience in the Israeli Defense Forces. Our work is based on psychology, neurosciences, motor skills, and human behavior as important guidelines in our work to create and deliver a realistic, relevant, cutting-edge CQB system.
Reward Training
In our courses, we focus on survivability, human behavior, and additional science-based factors, that are the key to reality relevant tactics or procedures.
In our courses, you will learn how to work, react and assess under extreme stress while sticking to a very systematic way of solving geometry-based problems. At the end of each course, you will be familiarized with architecture, behavior-based tactics, and reality-based scenarios that will prove the relevance & efficiency of our system. All in all, our system is loyal to reality and we will ensure that you will learn more than just ''running'' into rooms looking for your corner.
