PHASE
3 - ANNUAL 2-DAY BOOT CAMP
"The
Zombie Squad"
PHASE 3 Origins
Our
bootcamp was originally called 'The Zombie Squad' which originated
in 1995. I came up with a hard core approach to combative training
inspired by the USMC training regimen. These sessions were done
once every 3 months outdoors and consisted of extreme conditions
training.
The purpose was to test the advanced student's mettle in extreme
conditions as well as gauge their strategic implementation under
high stress conditions.
The result was the birth of the Zombie Squad.
Very few made it into this program. The criteria was very high and
whining and bitching was not tolerated in any way, shape or form.
The training seperated the hard core athletes from the wannabe's.
The basic requirements at the time was to have been a consistent
member at Senshido with a minimum of 1 year of training under the
belt. Next came a trial session. If participants passed the trials,
they would be legible for the extreme conditions outdoor training.
Those who succeeded became part of Senshido's Elite. They developed
a killer instinct, a warrior spirit and overkill mentality. They
earned their respective places in the Zombie Squad and wore their
colors proudly.
Today, the Zombie Squad boot camps are held once a year in Montreal
and are open to one and all providing you have a minimum of 6 months
of combative training under your belt.
