The Todd Group are primarily military elite CQC/MSD training providers that were established in 1927 by the late Harry Baldock.

Harry started instructing military armed and unarmed combat and military self-defence in 1927 and was a New Zealand Army chief instructor of unarmed combat and military self-defence during WW11.

Geoff Todd

My name is Geoff Todd or Tank as I am better known in military CQC close quarters combat and MSD military self-defence. I am the current and only the   second Master-Chief Instructor of the Todd Group formerly the Baldock institute in the past 93 years.

I am a civilian that was accepted into the world of military elite forces armed and unarmed combat training. This provided the unheard of opportunity at the time and since to train test and qualify in military elite forces CQC/MSD achieving my mil elite CQC/MSD Master-Instructor qualification.

This was at a time when the masses were training in martial arts and little was known of military CQB/CQC/MSD. While martial arts based self-defence styles are common being a civilian trained tested and qualified by leading expert allied military Master-Chief instructors from WW11 in military armed and unarmed combat and military self-defence  and spending most of my working career instructing the military elite in CQC/MSD is an exclusive status.

I have spent the last 40 plus years involved in European military CQC and MSD logging  tens of thousands of hours in my trade-craft and have achieved military instructor qualifications of no other military combative  instructor  from some of the allied expert chief instructors of the WW11 era and the next generation of military Master-Chief instructors.

As a civilian I accepted all challenges volunteering for military close combat training and instructor qualification courses, passing  testing  and was informed  this was an unheard of opportunity for a civilian  that would be unlikely to ever  be repeated again.

The Baldock institute being the oldest private training organisation instructing European military armed and unarmed combat as well as military self-defence made my military CQC/MSD career possible by referrals and requests.

Harry’s career advice and referrals  led to my military CQC/MSD career being made possible and  to our leading status in our trade-craft.

With the changing of the guard the Baldock institute became the Todd Group and our longest history has been preserved and our global training provision footwork expanded by considerable.

I have conducted training around the world over the decades and have re-introduced European military CQC/MSD back into the military as well as training law-enforcement diplomatic protection and wildlife protection.

The late Sergeant Major Harry Baldock, Colonel  Rex Applegate and Platoon Sergeant Charles Nelson are three of my former  military combative expert instructors  that trusted in me and assisted me with my career.

I have continued with the trade-craft being actively involved in all aspects including the design and manufacture of CQC/MSD training equipment and weapons.

I am the holder of the doctrine and the developer of the skills and training packages and exponents taking our courses get their training directly from the source.

We live in often violent times where we cannot always expect the authorities or others to come to our rescue and by attending one of our MSD/CQC courses responsible civilians are arming themselves with best of battle proven military self-defence knowledge.

My involvement with allied elite forces hand and combat in Thailand began  in 1991 and I have had a connection with training provision  there  for over 25 years.

For enthusiasts down under or tourists visiting down under, we conduct an annual Australasian course late March every year at Camp Todd and Todd group HQ.

We conduct courses in Thailand at various camps and now out of our major facility that has decommissioned simulators combined with a real life military close quarters combat training environment for civilians that want to learn the most current military self- defence and close quarters combat tactics and skills in unique training facility established to provide a military combative experience as close to our military courses of instruction as civilians can get.

Instructed skills are drawn from our MSD military self- defence and Mil CQC packages and are our most current primary trade-craft practices delivered  in the same or similar manner as on our regular force and elite forces military courses of instruction.

The courses can be as challenging as the individual exponent chooses to make them to fit with their mental and physical make-ups, attributes and capabilities.

The courses are volunteer courses and exponents can choose to partake or observe any training module.

Some exponents will attend to challenge themselves by training under an increased intensity progression  continuum  as their confidence and competency levels rise  preparing them for  undertaking CQC/MSD phase  testing at the end  of the course.

Other exponents will attend to gain knowledge and practical self-defence capabilities for their self-protection.

While testing is mandatory for training progression it is not a prerequisite of under-going Phase 1 Basic training and this is important so attendees of wide ranging age groups and physical capabilities can experience our military self-defence training.

While fight and combat sports are for the young and physically fit military self-defence provides the best chances of stopping an aggressive goal driven physically superior over-dog  in their tracks by the employment of the best of battle-proven military self-defence and close quarters combat means.

We have written the manuals not only for mil CQC/MSD but also anti and counter serious sexual violence in our D-WAR declare war against rape program that we provide training in on HQ and exported courses of instruction.

We pride ourselves in arming and enabling responsible citizens in an under-dog threat situation facing an over dog with the capabilities to incapacitate their aggressor.¨

Instructing techniques  that are competitive or traditional that are practiced in age weight and gender categories   would not be the best way to provide the  highest chances of stopping an over dog in their tracks, hence  why we instruct responsible citizens in MSD and mil CQC.

From the majority on courses a fraction of 1 percenters will self-identify as dedicated committed exponents passing testing and achieving promotion moving up through the ranks becoming global depot instructors in their home country.
