I had a little taste of close quarters tactics/training in some classes.
The best thing I learned from it all was
THIS SUCKS. Keep doing this and sooner or later you'll eat a bullet or knife or run into The Thug That Was Tougher Than Me.
It's a good training lesson in staying defensive if possible, don't go looking for trouble, and don't think you're going to live forever. When the pros say maximize distance, they're NOT kidding.
On the flip side, knowing something about the offensive stuff helps if you've got absolutely no other choice. Say, you're in deep kimchee and if you stay in your present spot you're going to die and the only way out is attack through the threat.
Whoops, little note here: when I say defensive and offensive, I mean
defensive: wait for the threat to come to you
offensive: go after the threat, not necessarily for an offensive reason, the reason may be like that stated above: the only way out is through the bad guys.
