After a lifetime of martial arts exposure, training, research, and exploration, including Tae Kwon Do as a child, and later Gracie Jui Jitsu Combatives, traditional boxing, JKD and Krav Maga as an adult, everything seemed to be missing something- the element of stress AND FEAR when confronted with real world, sudden violence.
When training on a schedule, on a mat, in a uniform or workout attire, with a partner who is not trying to injure, relocate, or kill you, one has Awareness, Consent, and Preparation to practice, spar, train, compete, etc. This ACP as Coach Tony Blauer has termed it, does not exist in full when ambushed, or truly targeted by 'jack in the box' violence. And when that stress and fear spikes, and the physiological effects of the associated neurotransmitters go to work, most if not all of that mat and dojo training is unavailable for access and deployment.
Once I discovered Coach Blauer and began training with him, it became clear that the missing link was three-fold-no one that I was training with or reading from was addressing how to detect and diffuse imminent danger, how to manage the fear spike and how to discern the difference between its psychological and physiological expressions, and how to understand and capitalize on what Coach Blauer calls the body's natural, organic airbag - the startle/flinch response.
The SPEAR System® bridges the gap and decreases the gap time between stimulus and response. It's already in you- we can now refine it and polish it! Your instinct will automatically make the choice to 'Choose Safety' (Coach Blauer), you can too! -Coach Ahanu Waters

"Your ability to protect yourself or a loved one is inarguably the single most important skill you can possess." -Coach Tony Blauer

The ability to protect yourself or a loved one is the single greatest skill you could possess. What if learning how to protect yourself was much easier than you thought?

● How to reconnect to the human weapon system.
● That 80% of confrontations could have been avoided.

Blauer Tactical Systems® research on the startle/flinch phenomena and its link to the survival system’s withdrawal reflex has spawned one of the most important evolutions in close quarter training: the SPEAR System®, which utilizes the speed and reliability of the startle/flinch mechanism to convert the sudden attack into a tactical counter.
The SPEAR System® is considered the world’s first and only behaviorally based close self-defense system. It is based on science, psychology, and human biomechanics. It uses hard-wired reflexes to enhance personal defense by improving anyone’s ability to detect, intercept, and defend a sudden close quarter ambush.
The SPEAR System® is not a martial art, nor does it replace other martial art systems. SPEAR is the study of human movement as it relates to violence, fear, and aggression.

The spear tip is our symbol. It is the first weapon developed by our ancestors to keep their families alive. As a weapon, it uses the same kinetic chain as the startle-flinch response. This protective system allowed humans to evolve since modern man began exploring the planet 80,000 years ago.
At BTS, we will focus on three things: Service, Loyalty and Commitment. We will apply these concepts to everything we do.
Very simple: We don't like liars, IP thieves, predators, criminals and terrorists.
Science: Our system is the world's only behaviorally based self-protection method based entirely on physiology, kinesiology, physics, and psychology.
Simple: All our movements are based on how 'humans actually' move. We don't teach memorized patterns or complicated techniques.
Legal: In the real world, "force must parallel danger", our system is congruent with every moral, ethical and legal directive.
Totality: Our methodology is holistic. It's based on emotional awareness & intelligence, modern psychology and practical & functional movement. Students of our courses are taught how to avoid, de-escalate and if all else fails, how to protect themselves.
Proven: Since 2003, our clients have been the police, the military and other first-responders. For over two decades the Blauer Tactical company has been a trusted resource for good people who actually fight real bad-guys. If our system works for them, it'll work for you.like liars, IP thieves, predators, criminals and terrorists.
