This year our schedule is packed with events and seminars across the United States and in Europe.
We’ll be tapping into our combined 60-plus years of experience to bring to you the best in combatives — from handling a gun threat to defending against a vicious takedown on the streets.
Below are just some of the confirmed seminars in our schedule, but there’s more on the way.
We’ll update this page as often as possible, so you have more opportunities to train with us in person.

APRIL 27-28, 2024
EVENT:
Tiga Tactics Street Combatives Seminar
EVENT DETAILS:
More often than not, violent criminals will strike from within arm’s reach because they’re untrained and will use the element of surprise to catch you off guard.
Basically, the formula is:
> Surprise haymaker
> Fall to the ground
> Eat kicks to the face
So, how do you train to stop a violent attacker from pounding you into the pavement?
And do you know what to do if you’ve already been knocked down or thrown to the asphalt?
Join us for the Street Combatives Seminar on April 27-28 in Maryland and learn practical punch defense and effective antigrappling so you can protect yourself and your loved ones.
You’re getting TWO popular programs rolled into one! All in a safe, effective, and fun seminar!

MAY 11, 2024
EVENT:
Tiga Tactics Pistol Defense Webinar
EVENT DETAILS:
Gun violence is at an all-time high and — despite what the media might have you believe — the most common firearm used in these crimes is the handgun. That’s because it’s small, concealable, and easy to use.
So, does your training show you how to stop a pistol?
What if you can’t get to your own gun or knife in time?
Are your empty-hand skills up to the task?
This webinar will NOT show you 101 ways to disarm a gun or fancy (and fantastical) techniques that only work on the dojo but not on the street.
This online seminar held via Zoom takes aim at how to spot, avoid, and handle a handgun threat when you’re unarmed — using practical, functional, and intuitive movements that anyone can use in a life-and-death situation.
