What kind of fight training do secret services like MI6 teach agents?

like James Bond. Do they teach them traditional eastern martial arts, if so which ones?





or some kind of hand-to-hand combat? If so, what's it called?





thanks

What kind of fight training do secret services like MI6 teach agents?
There are many different styles employed by different Special Forces and Governent Agencies throughout the world, they often change and or adapt things from different styles.





A short list of the most common are:





Krav Maga (Israli army/special forces and used by many US and other countries incl CIA and FBI)





Wing Chun (Not as widely used these days to my knowledge but once very popular)





Gracie Jui Jitsu (not my favourite Art but it seems to be effective)





and then others just have ahand to hand training regime that includes techniques from many differnt systems.
Reply:whatever works
Reply:MI6 doesn't actually exist anymore - it is a term from around WWI. So realistically MI6 doesn't train any of its operatives a specific matrial arts style. My suggestion is to undertake a search on the internet for what MI6 actually is and what they do. Are you thinking of becoming a Secret Agent?
Reply:the first instructor for special forces was a coronel sykes-fairbarne look him up he taught knife and so on and designed a knife for speciall ops
