Students learn directly from the best in the business when it comes to effectively operating from the ground. Carlos Machado, founder of Machado Jiu-Jitsu, is one of the few Subject Matter Experts who recognizes the need to appropriately modify ground survival skills to build relevant and appropriate applications for the Law Enforcement and Military community.

Our Advanced Ground Survival Course is designed to teach one thing, GROUND SURVIVAL, not ground fighting.

Over the past 10 years the ground fighting arts have made a significant impact throughout the Self-Defense, Military and Law Enforcement communities.  Real-World application has been severely hampered because instructors try to teach from a sport based methodology. The professional community's Level of Force Continuums, Rules of Engagement, weapons platforms and the equipment currently utilized, all present a serious need to re-align and/or modify curriculums to ensure 100% applicability.

Today's advanced criminals and terrorist organizations are continuously improving their capabilities. Yesterday's high level of ground fighting proficiency is now today's norm.

For this reason, Sark Security Group R&D has turned to Mr. Machado to assist in the designing and customization of a highly unique curriculum specifically for the professional community. A system designed to counter shoot fighters, wrestlers and experienced grapplers in the world of NO RULES.

If you are truly looking to gain the distinct advantage on the ground this is the place!  We are not One-Stop-Shop instructors. We bring Subject Matter Experts from all over the world together; each having a unique specialty - in an effort to assemble the most advanced training cadre to date.

We are honored to have Carlos Machado join the Sark Security Group R&D Team. In our professional opinion, he is the ultimate ground survival tactician!
