Arvind Khaire is an Indian self defence educator and author, most popularly known to have started the Combat Tactical System (CTS), a safety training program founded in 2002 that integrates situational awareness, psychological preparedness, and uncomplicated defense methods.[2] His classes and methodology of converting martial arts to daily safety training were featured in The Times of India in 2002 and 2003.[3]
Career
Khaire opened schools teaching martial arts in Mumbai in the early 1990s that concentrated first on Karate.[2] Subsequently, he transitioned to the teaching of practical safety education which combined physical techniques with awareness and psychological readiness.[3]
In 2002 he officially set up the Combat Tactical System (CTS), a short-form self defence course designed for individuals of varied ages and abilities.[2] Initial CTS workshops in Mumbai and other metropolitan areas were featured in national press, which showcased Khaire's shift from martial arts competition to community training.[3]
CTS courses have since been conducted in collaboration with schools, universities, NGOs, and police forces.[4][5]
Disability Inclusion
In 2014 Khaire partnered with Sightsavers and the American India Foundation on self defence modules for hearing-impaired and visually impaired women.[6][7] Some of the participants, as reported by Sightsavers, became para-sports competitors and peer trainers later.[7]
In 2019, he delivered training programmes for visually impaired girls through Aarambh NGO,[8] with an official report documenting the curriculum and outcomes of the sessions.[9]
