Professor André Quiles teaches the Tactical Law Enforcement Jiu-Jitsu curriculum himself. A native Brazilian and world-class black belt with extensive experience teaching police officers.
The Success of this course is not only to teach the main surviving Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu techniques, but also to introduce the defenses against striking and knife in every situation and of course gun retention. The progression of the class is created following the “natural” path of an assault against an Officer (Stand up strike, clinch, take down and ground fight).
FBI data reveals that 11.9% of police officers – nearly one in eight – were victims of assault while on duty in 2020. A total of 60,105 officers were reported as assault victims, many with guns, knives, and other weapons. (FBI/LEOKA)
