Combat Shooting

This is a fundemental skill that is the foundation of all other specialised training at Golani.

It is important to understand that there is a significant difference between combat shooting and sport/target shooting. Many people shoot at a shooting range and might even be good shots when target shooting, this does not make it an effective skill in combat or high stress situations however. We encourage you to come and see how different it really is and equip yourself to handle your firearm properly in a combat or criminal attack situation.

Combat shooting is open to civilians and also lays the foundation to all the law enforcement and private security sector training we provide.

Our combat shooting techniques come from the Israeli Special Forces - techniques that have been forged in battle for many decades.

Civilian Tactical

Civilian Tactical training is the offensive part of being able to defend yourself. Whereas Krav Maga teaches you defensive techniques, Civilian Tactical teaches you offensive techniques and also techniques for restraining/arresting an assailant.

Whether you own a firearm or not, being able to use it in a real life situation and tactically is very important.

Maybe you hear someone breaking in and you own a firearm, now what do you do?
Or maybe you've disarmed an attacker an now you have his gun in your hand, now what do you do?

Looking at only the two examples above it becomes clear that such skills are not only relevant to firearm owners, but to anyone wishing to defend themselves completely, i.e knowing what to do defensively as well as offensively.

Civilian Tactical training answers all these questions and more.

The civilian tactical course (which is presented as a weekly class) covers topics such as combat shooting, tactical movement with a firearm, basic house clearance (SWAT) and arresting techniques. It's duration is one class per week for a period of 3-4 months. It is presented as a weekly class just as our Krav Maga training.

Close Protection

This course is based on the Israeli SHABACK 730 unit (a unit of which Idan Abolnik was also a member). This unit provides all the protection for the Prime Minister, President and other ministers of Israel.

Today, most of the good close protection units around the world use the SHABACK 730 program.

All members of this unit come from Israeli special units. Applicants must pass a rigorous selection process of the SHABACK 730 unit and then pass a 9 week course, called the GR course. Thereafter the applicant must continue and complete a specialized course called the BARICH course.

We use the same program (our course is 4 weeks in length however) in our close protection courses, which means it is very challenging, mentally and physically.

Our course is almost 90% practical and 10% theoretical. Sitting in a lecture room and learning practical skills from a white board will never equip you for real world situations. The only way to instinctively react is to practice skills repeatedly under all sorts of conditions.

Participation in this course is subject to passing a selection process.

SWAT

Golani develops and provides special training courses in various subjects of combat which are the most effective and meets the needs of the client.

Our SWAT courses are based on the Israeli counter terrorism unit (Yamam). This unit specialises in any kind of hostage rescue, whether being in a house, plane, bus or anywhere else for that matter.

The techniques used are the most advanced in the Israeli Special Forces. This training is specifically for law enforcement and military units.

Personal Security Details (PSD)

With the war on terrorism and its consequences, a need for a new type of security operator emerged.

It is no secret that PSD teams are used extensively in war zones accross the world to protect valuable resources and VIP's. Our training program for PSD personnel will equip them to deal with the new challenges faced by operators in such environments.

When the need for this new type of operator emerged, it was mostly filled by CPO's, as a CPO's training is perceived to most closely fit the skills needed by a PSD operator. The problem is that CPO training does NOT prepare you for half the challenges faced in a warzone.

CPO training does not involves some of the soldiering elements needed by PSD operators. CPO work is defensive in nature and PSD work in a warzone needs a defensive and also offensive capability and mentality.

Our PSD course covers all the necessary training, where a PSD operator is more closely trained as a combat special forces platoon soldier. This allows the PSD operator to not just defend his VIP or valuable resource, but also fight in a warzone situation to save lives.

Counter Terrorism

Terrorism is probably the biggest global threat and affects us all in some way or another. The war on terrorism is the most difficult war that has ever faced the world.

Combatting terrorism is extremely difficult and complex, as the enemy is completely unseen. Their fanatic belief system makes this all the more difficult to overcome. This is why terrorism is so difficult to eliminate, and it's not even possible to eliminate all together.

Terrorists have significant resources, helping them to also develop themselves. For anyone to be able to combat terrorism, we must continuously develop our elite/intelligence units, as they are fighting against a well developed and well trained enemy.

Terrorism isn't just about religion anymore, but is also about wealth and power.
