Split Second Survival (SSS) teaches that to survive a confrontation is to understand that there is always more than one attacker. SSS uses unique open hand strikes to the soft tissue areas of the attacker, employs passive escapes, soft blocking techniques, and subconscious redirects in the form of neural response to physical stimulation. All of these techniques will easily flow into ending the confrontation or to your escape. SSS uses concepts that can be employed in many of the same ways against a person, or persons, using a knife, firearm, or any other weapon.
