As a martial artist with over 40 years of experience, I've trained with many respected instructors, but Rock Dehon and his Kino Mutai Combatives system stand out. Rock's approach is uniquely simple and effective, focusing on survival in violent encounters. It's more than just techniques; it's a survival philosophy based on instinctive responses. What distinguishes Rock is his extensive experience in challenging environments like nightclubs and international close protection. This background informs his practical, instinct-focused teaching style. He's not just about drilling techniques; he empowers students to think and react on their own. Rock's Kino Mutai Combatives is genuinely effective for real-world self-defense. For anyone looking to learn true survival skills, Rock's system is unparalleled.

Realistic, Simple and Effective!

The best thing I've seen and learned in 40 years. Besides that, Rock is phenomenal.

His training with SWAT, in Israel and deployed worldwide make him unattainable in his experiences.

Hello everyone, I had the opportunity to know Rock in 2005 through a self-defense course called Urban Pentjak Silat in Brussels. I was directly struck by the pedagogy, the knowledge and above all the search for realism of Rock Dehon which was already rich in many years of practice through various martial arts, self-defense, fighting arts and experience in the field of security attracted all my interest. Years later, I discovered during a Kino Mutai Combatives Instructor seminar the evolution of Rock work's and it just blow my mind. The Kino Mutai Combatives is probably one of the most realistic, simple and efficient self-defense system on the market. Today, the KMC is part of my teaching program hand has a real value for all students in the will to learn a realistic self-defense system and to gain confidence in short term. I can not recommand enough KMC to all martial arts or fighting sports teachers wishing to add a pragmatic RBSD system in their school. Osu.

With over 30 years in Kyokushin Kai and Shidokan Karate, and experience as a national combat instructor and nightclub doorman, I've faced real street violence. Initially skeptical, I approached Rock Dehon's combat system and was struck by its unorthodox, non-conventional approach. It's unlike anything in traditional martial arts, focusing on survival efficiency, understanding street violence, situational awareness, and stress management. What impressed me was Rock's departure from traditional martial arts to develop a system based on how the brain reacts under stress, tailored for those with limited training time but a strong desire to learn effective self-defense. Rock's humility and openness to learning enhance his teaching. In summary, Rock's Kino Mutai Combatives system is a realistic and efficient approach to self-defense, and I highly recommend it. Osu.

I had the chance, from 2003 till 2010, to work with M. Rock Dehon several times during critical missions linked to people’s safety. His know-how and experience concerning safety risk management is a real asset for every person who have to take dedicated measures to ensure his/her safety. Rock is also a trustable person ; an example of integrity. His experience in personal training programs is also a add-value for his client ; always ready to detail and explain why a certain kind of measure is mandatory and how to understand it. His goal : to keep his “principal” safe, but at the same time to ensure his comfort and mental wellness, even when risks become more concrete. EU high-level politicians under police protection, CEO’s who have to announce huge social plans in several business units in the EU region or members of Royal families visiting EU : some of the numerous cases for which I chose to work with Rock. Feedback from the client was, at all time : “Please ensure Rock is available for our next visit !” I stay at your disposal for more details concerning my experience with M. Rock Dehon. Do not hesitate to contact me, should you need further information. Best regards,

For nearly 20 years, I led a security team for high-risk institutions and trained numerous personnel in various defense techniques. Throughout this time, I encountered many instructors with diverse martial arts and combat sports backgrounds. However, their methods often lacked practicality or were too complex for real-world application. Then I met Rock Dehon. His training methods were a game-changer, emphasizing simplicity and effectiveness. Rock's real-field experience meant he focused only on techniques proven to work in actual confrontations. His training style is distinct, ensuring students gain maximum efficiency and practical skills. Rock is not about awarding belts or false confidence. He's about empowering you with real skills for effective self-defense. If that's what you're seeking, I highly recommend training with Rock.

With over 40 years in martial arts and as an instructor in Jeet Kune Do, Sanda and Kickboxing, I've experienced many fighting styles. However, discovering Kino Mutai Combatives (KMC) was a revelation in term of self-defense. Its simplicity, efficiency, and unorthodox approach make it an exceptional self-defense system, accessible to everyone, not just martial arts enthusiasts. The Kino Mutai Combatives stands out in its ability to deliver quick results with an amazing retention level of the techniques learned. Unlike traditional martial arts that require years of practice, KMC equips students with practical skills in a fraction of the time. This is invaluable in today's increasingly uncertain world. As a Martial Arts school owner (the Jeet Kune Do Ruszil Academy), the Kino Mutai Combatives has enabled me to offer realistic self-defense techniques to a wider audience, beyond the martial arts community. It's a game-changer for anyone seeking effective, real-world defense skills.

I highly recommend Rock Dehon Kino Mutai Combatives. As a military close-combat instructor, I had the pleasure of working with Rock a few times. He is a motivated and organized instructor who develops inspiring relationships with his students. Rock has always been driven to develop his skills as an instructor. He embraces any opportunity for professional development, which makes him an ideal leader. Rock has a great rapport with people of all ages. His ability to communicate with his students and his knack for teaching simple concepts, as well as more advanced topics, are both truly superior. 

With 35 years in martial arts, starting from Judo and Karate at age 6 to Taekwondo, Boxing, and Full Contact disciplines, I've always sought to address the limitations of each system. My journey led me to Krav-Maga and Pentjak Silat, but it was meeting Rock Dehon that truly transformed my approach to reality-based self-defense. Rock's pragmatism, realism, field experience, and exceptional teaching skills impressed me deeply. For 20 years, I've been immersed in his system, covering close combat, stick-fighting, knife-fighting, and Filipino boxing. His methodology has captivated my clients as well. I encourage all martial arts enthusiasts to experience Rock's training. He will undoubtedly challenge and possibly confirm your beliefs and certainties in self-defense.

Rock’s Self-Defense teaching has been invaluable for me and my whole family. His technique is incredibly easy to learn and has amazingly quickly made my family safer. No need to be strong, tall, flexible or particularly quick. Everyone can quickly learn the simple life-saving moves. Rock’s technique is the outcome of a very rare mix : his exceptional mastering of various fighting techniques, numerous real-life fighting experiences, a solid knowledge of how our brain and body react to stress, a continuous search for the easiest move giving the biggest impact.

Kino Mutai Combatives (KMC) deeply resonates with my vision of self-defense, offering an approach that is both simple and universally applicable. What sets KMC apart is its ability to adapt to various styles and personal needs, making self-defense accessible to everyone, regardless of their background. My own experience in martial arts has opened my eyes to the importance of finding a method that speaks to both my mind and body. KMC has enriched my understanding of self-defense, providing me with practical and straightforward tools, while respecting my personal practice. What I appreciate most about KMC is the deep respect it teaches for all forms of practice and individual journeys in martial arts. It's a method that not only strengthens physical skills but also cultivates an appreciation for the diversity and richness of different approaches to self-defense.

I’m a retired French Special Force soldier with several operations in conflict zones and later as private close protection operator in hostile environments. The most important values of Rock Dehon system's are the simplicity, the unorthodox approach and the high retention level with a very limited time of maintenance needed. I experimented with it years after the instruction ended. It was late at night, when three thugs surrounded me and tried to corner me, asking for my goods. What amazed me was my instinctive and so brutal tactical answer. It's clear that the Kino Mutai Combatives system is deeply ingrained into my muscle memory.

I had the great privilege of personally training with Rock Dehon. His vast experience in various martial arts, including Krav-Maga, Filipino & Indonesian Martial arts to name a few, his passion to teach, and his personal commitment to his students’ success had a profound impact on me. It strengthen my self-confidence, knowing that, whether in business or in life in general, I had tools to react to an unknown situation and be able to defend myself and those who depend on me.

As a passionate Martial Arts practitioner, I have remained loyal to my style, the Lung Hua Chuan Kung Fu, which I learned from Grand Master Gonsette (a pioneer of Kung Fu in Belgium). During that time, I met Rock Dehon (it's about 40 years ago). Like any practitioner, I have of course tried many other arts, such as Pentjak Silat, Krav-Maga, Kickboxing, Wing Chun. In 2023, during Rock's visit to Belgium, I attended the Kino Mutai Combatives classes. I found a synthesis of many combat and self-defense arts, an instructor and team very experienced in techniques and very open to sharing their extensive experience in security and street techniques. Excellent work with sticks and knives. I rarely recommend a combat art because I am convinced that everyone must find their own path, but I do recommend the Kino Mutai Combatives to everyone, beginners or experienced fighters. Rock Dehon is a great man in the Martial Arts family. For the Lung Hua Chuan Kung Fu Courcelles/Belgium.

We experienced Rock Dehon's Kino Mutai Combatives training at our Sports Club in Brussels. Unlike traditional martial arts, KMC focuses on practical self-defense without conventional rules. It aligns with Sun Tzu's philosophy: "The supreme art of war is to subdue the enemy without fighting." KMC emphasizes conflict de-escalation and avoidance. The training teaches awareness of surroundings, identifying potential threats, and avoiding danger. It prepares you to de-escalate conflicts and, as a last resort, to defend yourself effectively using body weapons and everyday items. KMC has significantly boosted our confidence in self-defense, equipping us with practical skills for real-life situations.
