ISR Matrix 2018 Summit in Fort Lauderdale, FL – November 2018
ISR Matrix 2018 Training Summit & Business Conference in Fort Lauderdale, Florida
November 5, 6, 7, 8 & 9, 2018 in Fort Lauderdale, FL USA
The ISR Matrix 2018 Summit is open to all Law Enforcement Officers, Federal Agents, Military Personnel, Corrections Officers, as well as civilian professional security personnel and executive protection specialists. This year our summit will consist of two simultaneous courses that cross over on the first two days of training:
The ISR LE/AF/PM – 5 Day Course: Monday, November 5 through Friday, November 9, 2018 is for Law Enforcement Officers, Military Personnel, Federal Agents, Corrections Officers, professional security personnel and executive protection specialists.
OR (these courses run at the simultaneously in different rooms)
*The ISR-CLUTCH – 5 Day Course: Monday, November 5 through Friday, November 9, 2018 is open to civilians (18 years and up)
The ISR CIV/ PM – 2 Day Subject Control Course: Monday, November 5 & Tuesday, November 6, 2018 is open to civilians (18 years and up).
“The ISR Matrix; Beneath the Surface” – The Functional Integration of Morally and Legally Defensible Tactics & Strategy through the Use of Force Continuum.
This year’s summit will build on our foundation of subject control (day 1 & 2) and firearm retention (day 3) and then be integrated directly into our close quarter defense curriculum with the Clutch System (Day 4 and 5) for two days of its close quarter fighting and weapon/ tool transitions approach. We will also showcase its counter knife and defensive blade module into that material and re-integrate that module right back into our subject control and retention work from the previous days.
*NOTE: Now open to civilians and instructors seeking self-defense & personal protection instruction. The ISR Matrix Clutch – 5 day course.
Due to the amount of instructors currently registered for the US Summit, we will be dividing the training sessions between civilians and Leo as we did at our recent European Summit in Iceland.
Hope to see you there!

Training Schedule: 9am to 5pm
Description: Participants will learn the ISR Matrix’s approach to dealing with physical resistance the moment verbal management, commands and communication break down or fail and physical intervention becomes necessary. The proper interview stance and all of the essential strategies and tactics that begin from it will be shown and integrated through a morally sound and legally defensible use of force continuum in regards to subject control, restraint and transportation. *Law Enforcement Personnel will work separately on the third day to take into account their duty belt and work with firearm retention and deployment within the scope of subject control and transportation.
ISR Matrix Clutch (Self-Defense & Personal Protection) – FIVE DAYS (weekend off)
Thursday, October 4, Friday, October 5, Monday, October 8, Tuesday, October 9 and Wednesday, October 10, 2018

Description: Participants will be introduced to the ISR Matrix’s Close Quarter Defense & Personal Protection System, the ISR Matrix Clutch. The ISR Matrix’s approach to criminal probes, interviews and set ups will be addressed as well as the strategies and tactics in dealing with the violence that can and may follow. This particular course will be unique in that it will introduce much of the close quarter combative tactics previously unavailable to civilians and showcase elements from all three of its initial hand to hand phases including portions of its clinch with cloth (attached fighting), improvised weapons, and counter knife / defensive knife modules. Participants should expect and be prepared for moderate levels of exercise and training. The majority of this initial introductory course will be information driven in regards to showcasing unique ways in dealing with violence within close quarters and the clinch but like all ISR training will be equally matched with drills, pressure testing, teach backs and plenty of instruction to assure all those who participate can retain what they have learned and take it back home with them.
