Did you train others back at your unit? Did you referee matches and help with even set-up? Was it to fill a quota?

I do. I used it when I was on active duty to train my company and I assisted when units needed people for the clinch drill for level 1 certs. I also have used it on the civilian side in my jiujitsu journey. Many of the techniques are quite similar.

I've been told that a few times. Level 2 was interesting.

I used it mostly in competition, but I didn't get to do much training at the Company level just because the logistics of the training schedule and other duties (I had a lot of other duties that they wanted to utilize more like EO, UPL, etc...). Mostly, I found that when I tried one-on-one with Soldiers going forward to a board, they quickly forgot the techniques. Practice, practice and more practice.

Yes I have I've helped with events, taught trips in my unit and am ready to go to level 3 but being overseas is harder to get a class.

I enjoy combatives it's good exercise and I learn more technical moves and pass on what I learn. Plus the Army's combatives community is small and even smaller once at level 3 and 4.

I remember being told by a Level 4 that once you do a few competitions, you start to see the same people constantly.
