About Us

“This training should be made available to every police academy defensive tactics program…a MUST KNOW
for public safety officers.” 

- Sgt. Bryan Reynolds (retired), Contra Costa Sheriff’s Office

The 1RBH free-handed restraint is a system designed to maximize control and minimize risk/injury.
It is simply the safest, most versatile and effective way to go hands-on in the line of duty.

1RBH allows you to:

* Control a larger (or smaller) assailant
* Modulate the amount of force used
* Maintain a 360 degree view of scene
* Release and stand, if necessary
* Communicate to the person held
* Call for back-up, while maintaining control

1RBH can be reached whether:

* Assailant is on top of you
* Both of you are standing
* Standing vs Ground or vice versa
* Clinched, headlocked, etc.

1RBH for Law Enforcement allows:

* Non-lethal, yet effective, compliance incentives
* Transition to vascular restraint
* Transition to arrest position
