Precision Self Protection - new Legal Advisor!

 Both Gary and myself are pleased to announce that Craig Lawson is on board with PSP as our legal advisor; the legal aspect of self protection training is as important as learning the soft and hard skills.

If you end up getting arrested and go to court, you have to defend your actions to the judge and/or jury, in that you were justified in using reasonable force against the assailant.

Craig's profile is on the PSP website and we look forward to working with Craig in the future and at all our seminars.

Precision Self Protection You Tube video - The Palm Strike

 Here's another detailed packed video from Gary Hilton, showing how to correctly apply the palm strike; the palm strike is my favourite pre emptive strike, it can finish someone quick and latches you to their head where you can fire off more strikes and get into a position to control and restrain the Threat, if need be, especially when working the doors.

Precision Self Protection video - Pre Emptive Strike

 Here's another video from Gary Hilton, showing one example of a pre emptive strike; pre emptive strikes happen when all attempts of avoiding and de escalating a situation have failed and you are in fear for your own safety, which Gary mentions in the video.

Precision Self Protection - seminar highlights

 Both Gary Hilton and myself are looking forward to rolling out the PSP seminars once again in the Summer; this highlight video was filmed at our first seminar last February before we were all hit with lockdown.

It gives you a little insight into what we are all about and we have something very special lined up for the Summer, when things get back to normal.

Precision Self Protection video - creating angles for a knockout!

 Here's another video from Gary Hilton, showing you how to create an angle to set up a knockout punch; by law you can use a pre emptive strike if you feel that your personal safety is under threat and they tend to follow after de escalation attempts have failed.

Memory Lane Photo 2010 - Tiger Muay Thai, Phuket

 With lots of free time during lockdown, I've been looking through old photo albums from my travels and during my reporting days and came across this photo of a very lean me with the NYBA Phil Baroni.

Phil was there at the camp for a few weeks, preparing for a fight and in the time he was there, he hosted a No Gi seminar that went down a treat.

During the time he was there, I got to hang out with him when we had our meals, as well as chilling out after training and I can say he is one of the nicest, humble guys you could ever wish to meet.

Wish I was that skinny now (*sighs*)



Precision Self Protection Soft Skills video - Avoidance

 A large part of the syllabus in Precision Self Protection covers the soft skills of self protection, something both Gary and myself feel isn't taught enough in many martial arts and self defence systems.

In this video, Gary talks about Avoidance, a soft skill that goes hand in hand with Awareness.

Awareness Is The Key - You Tube interview!

 Huge thanks to Les Bubka, for letting me chat with him on his podcast, which is also available on You Tube; rather than another talk about Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, I got to talk about pressure point fighting, the soft skills of self protection, the future plans for Precision Self Protection, surviving a violent assault and more...

Enjoy!
