Civil Response - who are we?
Meet the team stirring things up - and learn how they get out unscathed.
Life-saving fun?
Hell, yeah.
Hell, yeah.
Civil Response was born out of the desire to shake things up and help the people tap into their full potential. To kick the world out of its comfort zone straight into a new, better life. Which - sorry, not sorry - is not developed by sitting our desks.
We teach you how to prepare wisely for any scenario — war, blackout, hybrid threats — and have fun (ha!) and develop skills that will save lives in the event of an emergency. And to you and to those you care about.”

Mateusz Orczykowski
combat manager
Founder and mastermind behind Civil Response. When you contact us - you'll come across him first!
+25 years of experience in combat systems and martial arts. 15 years of instructor experience.
Trained & worked in the field with personal safety teams. The brain behind the international ITKM (Israeli Tactical Krav Maga) school, nurturing dozens of instructors who now teach across 3 continents, in places like Poland, Mexico, Brazil, Colombia, Ecuador, Kosovo, Thailand, & Germany.
Mastered skills in hand-to-hand combat, combat shooting, tactics, and personal protection under the guidance of former special forces soldiers, serving in units such as GROM, BOA, Polish Special Forces, SAS, and Shin Bet. He's also the creative force and lead instructor of the "Safe Women" international program (2023, Poland).
Off the clock: an ultimate outdoor adventurer, bushwhacking and gear-testing his way through the wilderness. At home: proud dad of 3 sons (young adepts), and according to those in the know, an incredible husband.
Instructor Y02/ Dudi
+20 years in the police force, including 16 in the elite Counter-Terrorism Unit (SPK), his journey began in the combat team as a paramedic, evolving into the head of training.
Extensively trained in intervention techniques and tactics, anti-terrorist operations, mine and pyrotechnic reconnaissance, TC3 provider, providing aid in special operations, and competitive shooting, studied alongside special forces operators (the Military Unit Commandos from Lubliniec and the US Special Forces ODA).
Off duty: a taekwondo instructor and a father to three (again?). Guards his vinyl collection with the same zeal as his own brood.
Instructor X01/ P01
+20 years of experience in the service of BOA (Bureau of Anti-Terrorist Operations) of the KGP as an operator and trainer.
Throughout his tenure, he executed hundreds of high-risk arrests, hostage rescue missions, and operations targeting organized crime across Europe.
His expertise is backed by training at the FBI Academy and with the world's most elite special forces units, including GDG9, RAID, GIGN, HRT-FBI, JWK, and GROM. He's a master instructor in combat shooting, CQB (Close Quarters Battle), and VCQB (Vehicle Close Quarters Battle).
Off duty: swaps his tactical gear for two wheels, patrolling the outskirts of Łódź on his motorcycle.
Don't let us fool you - verify!
Do we blend in? Good. But behind the pretty faces lie the tonnes of fired ammo, gallons of sweat and memories of the progress made by people precisely like you.
Mateusz is a very good instructor! No bullshit! As I say - he teaches what you need, with all the years of experience that he has. That’s why I took such a long trip from Equador to Poland, just to have a few weeks of training. The real deal!
