About ISR Matrix Australia & Asia Pacific
"A very professionally delivered
course, presented with a world
class and effective
coaching method. All drills and
material were set at the perfect
level so that all
course participants developed
confidence and efficiency in all
techniques."
"The instruction was second to
none ……….  by the end of the
second day there were people
less than half my size who were
able to control and restrain me
every time, and I wasn't pulling
my punches……. This is the first
such system I have seen where
these levels of results had been
achieved so quickly". Steven,
Security Trainer, ex Police
"ISR Matrix allows you to keep
complete control of the bad guy
whilst always keeping in mind
situational awareness, weapon
retention and transition, team
tactics and the ability to escalate
or de-escalte your use of force
at anytime" Tim, Police Officer
"The ISR program is particularly
useful for Law Enforcement or
security personnel, but can
easily be utilised as a
clinch/stand-up grappling
program for Martial Artists
training predominantly in
striking arts or BJJ. It will work in
with any other Martial Art system
without having a negative impact
on that system's current
syllabus" Ash, MMA Instructor
