A gunfight won’t wait for you to have perfect footing.
You may slip, fall, get knocked down, or be forced into unconventional positions during a violent encounter. If your training only works when you’re standing still, it will fail you when you need it most.
The Ground Up Fighter / Ground Up Operator course is designed to teach the intermediate gunfighter how to dominate the fight from the ground up—literally.
This is where theory ends and real-world performance begins.
This course focuses on weapon deployment, retention, manipulation, and movement from positions other than standing. You will learn how to fight effectively when the threat comes fast, the environment is chaotic, and gravity is not on your side.
Drawing from the holster while supine
Strong-hand and support-hand engagement
Shooting from your back without flagging yourself
Utilizing legs, hips, and environment for stability
Vehicle-based threat crossover
Chair, ground, curb, and confined-space shooting
Managing angles and “dead zones” when mobility is reduced
High-kneel/low-kneel transitions
Maintaining balance while engaging
Clearing clothing and presenting safely under load
Emergency and tactical reloads from compromised positions
One-handed malfunction clearing while grounded
Environmental aids (belt, holster, ground, vehicle, barriers)
Safe and tactical methods to regain your feet
Movement sequencing to avoid exposing vital zones
Shooting while transitioning from ground to standing
Preventing weapon grabs from ground positions
Retaining your firearm during a scramble or assault
Creating space and angle advantage during entanglements
Real fights aren’t picture perfect.
You will not have ideal stance, ideal balance, or ideal timing. You must be able to fight where you land—on gravel, concrete, grass, tile, or inside a vehicle.
This course builds the skill set that separates trained shooters from real fighters.
If you cannot run your weapon on your back, you cannot call yourself prepared.
This is the training nobody wants to do—but everybody needs.
