I.N.F. Three techniques to Submission
INF three Techniques to submission introduction, by Newark undercover Police Sergeant and Michael DePasquale’s student,
Robinson Rodriguez.

In this course you will learn basic hand-to-hand techniques developed by Soke Michael Depasquale Jr. 10th degree black belt in Yoshitsune Jujitsu, and on the ground.

These techniques are solely designed for the immediate Immobilization, Neutralization and Finalization of a suspect about to be arrested by an officer of the law. I have been a student of master Depasqule for approx 7 yrs and have personally used these and other techniques to apprehend suspects who preferred to resist or fight. These techniques aren’t pretty or fancy they are simply straight to the point defensive movements designed to protect and give the officer employing these techniques better methods of defending himself, controlling and arresting a suspect, without causing any bleeding or excessive force These techniques will not in any way disturb the air passage or endanger any joint or bone. All these techniques lead to a final face down prone position that we call the primary handcuffing position. All the techniques are designed so that by the time you finish this course, after a short period of time with practice, muscle memory will take over.

You will learn in this course all the techniques (including weapons disarming) lead back to the same secondary and finally the primary handcuffing position. We have chosen the most common and most dangerous attacks towards police officers we could research and there was a lot of research. All of the techniques presented are designed specifically for muscle memory, each having no more than 3 movements

I will demonstrate in Uniform then Soke will explain, demonstrate and execute the Techniques again this curriculum will follow in all 7 stages.
  1. Vehicle extraction (2techniques)
  2. Standing- search assault both hands.
  3. Running assault- same as 2 with double led take down.
  4. Domestic assault- from seated position, walking away.
  5. Assault from stairs- same techniques.
  6. Ground work- punch, stomp, mounted
  7. Weapons disarming- gun, knife, stick
