Footwork: Doorways
Added 2020-05-22 03:41:50 +0000 UTCHello Tier II and III,
I hope all of you are well!
Trying the publish without passwords and using the Patreon Exclusive feature on Vimeo to segment the Tiers. If it works I'll probably do this moving forward.
Here's a video on footwork applied to doorways. Please ask any questions here and I'll make a video addressing them. This stuff takes a while to digest and apply but will help you not get caught up in the fatal funnel upon entry.
Tier III live coming soon and Fundamentals: Grip coming at you tomorrow!
Finished a good session filming this week and will be editing intensive and publishing heavy the next few weeks.
Thank you for supporting me on Patreon! Ya'll are making awesome things happen at Vigilance Elite.
Cheers!

2024-03-26 17:30:03 +0000 UTCDepends on situation. We'll do more entry videos.

2020-12-17 15:53:49 +0000 UTCSomeone kind of asked this question but do you change shoulders depending on what side of the door you’re entering? Or do you just keep the rifle shouldered on your dominant side no matter what side you’re entering? Does it even matter that much?

2020-12-16 11:24:13 +0000 UTCThanks Derik! Going to make more videos like this later this year. The stairwell is on the list!

2020-09-19 04:01:36 +0000 UTCPhenomenal video Shawn! If you’re running a two man team and you work on clearing a house that has a second story, do you split up and one the main floor and the other take the upstairs? Or do you clear each level together?

2020-09-17 01:37:53 +0000 UTCConcept is the same but mirror the movements. Also drill both sides until it's fluid either way. 👊🏻

2020-08-25 03:45:00 +0000 UTCQuestion for follow-up video: Is the footwork exactly the same for a left-handed shooter? Or is it the opposite? In other words, for the footwork you demonstrated for the right side of the entrance, do left-handers move that footwork to the left side of the entrance? And for the footwork you demonstrated for the left side of the entrance, do left-handers move that footwork to the right side of the entrance? Thanks, great video and instruction.

2020-08-05 01:06:21 +0000 UTCThank you! More like this in production.
Shawn
2020-08-01 08:20:14 +0000 UTCNice stripped down entry video. Thanks for emphasizing the importance of footwork.

2020-07-28 17:51:23 +0000 UTCRight on! This will be a good followup subject.

2020-05-31 22:50:32 +0000 UTCShawn, good video. I finished my police patrol academy as a deputy sheriff about a year ago. Could you explain why entering a doorway should be performed like this. At the academy they always taught to slowly pie doorways (depending on circumstances IE a active shooter VS barricaded armed subject) . I imagine you have a lot more experience in this subject and just wanted your thoughts.

2020-05-30 00:31:21 +0000 UTCThanks! This is good stuff for the follow up video. 👊🏻

2020-05-24 00:14:49 +0000 UTCWould also love to get your input on entrance to corner fed rooms. Maybe add some details such as if there is an obstacle near the door way such as a dresser or a chest. Also curious your thoughts of this entry style vs “slicing the pie”. Would firearm selection dictate that? Not sure if one is better for a particular weapon system versus the other (say rifle vs pistol). You did and always do a wonderful job of breaking down the instruction where it is easily manageable to pick up what you’re putting down. Thanks as always!

Shawn
2020-05-23 05:17:32 +0000 UTCIt is the most detailed video on foot work I ever had, thank you very much! Breaking down on smaller parts helped a lot, and repeating segments were very helpful.
