Close Quarter Combat (CQC)

Close Quarter Combat (CQC) refers to fighting techniques used at very short distances, typically within arm’s reach, often in tense situations like combat or self-defense. It combines hand-to-hand combat, weapon use, and tactical movement to neutralize threats efficiently. CQC emphasizes quick, precise actions, including striking, grappling, and weapon handling, designed to disable an opponent swiftly while maintaining control. It’s practiced by military, law enforcement, and security personnel to effectively manage threats in confined environments, such as buildings or tight spaces, where distance is limited and rapid decision-making is crucial.
