Four Decades of Tape

Seminars, lectures and archive footage going back to 1979 — digitized and dropped, piece by piece.

It works in the real world.

That video saved our lives.

Jorge intercepted a gunman walking into his home using strategies he learned from one of my videos — after 11 minutes of training.

Jorge Carvajal
It blends the emotional and physical side of confrontation better than anything I've ever seen.

I've trained with martial artists and Grandmasters. This is different.

Dave Wade
That moment flipped a switch for both of us.

I'm 6'4", 245 lbs. My 14-year-old daughter used Outside 90 on me and cut off my blood flow.

What you'll learn

The SPEAR System®,
straight from the founder.

No dojo. No school. No mats, no partner, no belt. You learn this from the man who created it — from the comfort of your own home, on your own clock.

  • //Train it solo in your living room, garage or hotel room — bodyweight only
  • //Understand fear as information: the Cycle of Behavior® and the Timeline of Violence™
  • //Convert your startle-flinch into a functional, tactical response
  • //Decode real incidents — body cam, CCTV, street footage — and see what actually happens
  • //Coaches and school owners: this is the on-ramp to SPEAR System® Level 1 certification

If you teach martial arts, this is how you bring a behaviorally-based self-defense system to your school, your students and your community — certified, credible, and built on human biology instead of choreography.

Who this is for

Protectors of every level.

  • //Martial artists who want to make their system safer and more functional
  • //Coaches and trainers teaching real-world readiness
  • //Civilians, parents and protectors who want tools they can use now
  • //First responders keeping their edge sharp
  • //Anyone tired of feeling afraid, unprepared, or overcomplicating self-defense

You don't need to be strong, fit or experienced. You just need to be ready to learn.
