Description
F.I.S.T. - Fight Survival Training - is a collection of techniques loosely based on those taught in the military, specifically the French Foreign Legion. It was created after the tragedy of 9/11 made it obvious that civilians, like their military counterparts, need an effective way of defending themselves without devoting years to studying the traditional martial arts. Who Has 5 Years? Nick Hughes, F.I.S.T.'s creator, was approached by a multitude of people immediately following 9/11 requesting training in self defense. They had realized that, despite the best intentions of law enforcement agencies, there will always be a time when you are going to have to defend yourself. These same people though wanted answers now. They didn't have three to five years to devote to traditional martial art study nor did they want to wear uniforms, learn foreign terminology or study acrobatic techniques designed only to catch a judges eye or look good in the movies.
