RESPONSE-ABILITY
[THE ABILITY TO RESPOND]
““Weathering an ambush is inarguably the most important skill for any person in any confrontation.
It’s certainly the first most important skill, if you don’t weather the ambush, the rest of your training won’t matter.””
The Blauer #CHOOSE-SAFETY FORMULA
Always choose safety. There is no downside. If you get a bad feeling, trust your gut. If it turns out to be wrong, you're still safe. If it turns out there was a real threat, you're safer. Always choose safety.
OUR #BE-YOUR-OWN-BODYGUARD FORMULA
Ask yourself this: What could it cost me if I don't fight back?
List three people or things you would risk everything to defend.
Meditate on the idea of 'indignation'.
The combination of those three answers creates a mindset for victory. In our decades of research interviewing victims and victors during violent encounters, all the victors reported that 1. They did not want to lose or die. 2. They visualized a loved one or had one present. 3. They were incredibly angered by the assault.
It’s important that you realize that this is all mindset and has zero to do with martial arts or technique. And that's the secret of our system. We are not teaching you how to memorize moves - we are teaching you that you simply must move.
