Force Necessary Combatives Courses
W. Hock Hochheim, military vet, police vet, and martial arts vet with several black belts is a highly respected expert in hand, stick, knife, and gun combatives. With over 52 years of experience, his unique, systematic approach to self-defense is praised for its effectiveness, practicality, and academic rigor.
Voted into the Black Belt Magazine Hall of Fame, his endorsements highlight his ability to teach complex concepts in an easy-to-understand manner, making his training invaluable for military, police, and civilians alike. Hock’s “thought leader” methods are not only innovative and well-organized but also grounded in real-world experience, bolstered by his decades as an Army and Texas police investigator. This ensures that practitioners are prepared both mentally and physically for any crime or war situation.
Hock’s courses are sought after globally, as he teaches in 11 allied countries each year, on the road as far away as Australia for 30 years now, reflecting his unparalleled expertise and dedication to saving lives.
“When I was a combatives instructor there were a couple of questions I heard on almost continuous loop…’what style of fighting really works on “the street?’ or ‘who is the best instructor out there’? Well, for my money, Hock Hochheim is the real deal. Second to none. He’s trained with the best, but he also took all of his vast and diverse encyclopedic knowledge and real-world experience and broken all of the elements down in an analytical and systematic, easy-to-understand way. Not just reductionism though…he has unique insights and a trial-by-fire methodology that make the tactics come alive. Brutal, effective, efficient, and fun as heck to learn! Hock–I’ve said it before, but I’m saying it again–YOU ARE THE MAN!!”
