The Spear System My Goal Is To Make You Safer,
Smarter, And More Secure!!
Personal Defense Readiness™ is based on the S.P.E.A.R. SYSTEM™, which is the first genetically, and behaviorally inspired self-defense course. It is the only self-defense method that fully integrates the body’s reflexive responses and instinctive survival mechanisms, making S.P.E.A.R. the easiest, most natural way to protect yourself. This course is open to everyone 16 years old and older, which will challenge and enlighten everyone who attends.
“Your ability to protect yourself or a loved one is inarguably the single most important skill you can possess.”
— Coach Tony Blauer
Coach Blauer’s focus, our mission and path has not wavered since he began teaching real-world self-defense in 1979. He has been on the cutting-edge of reality-based training for the self-defense world ever since. His goal has always been to make the world safer. Starting with you. SmartSecureSafe is proud to be an authorized affiliate of his system.
“The SPEAR System is based on an 80,000-year-old genetic survival response that helped keep our ancestors alive. The reptilian brain wants you to survive. Its initial response is to protect the head and move you away from danger. We have sharpened this movement. Be the tip of the spear. Because in your fight, you’re on point.”
— 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? That was the inspiration Coach Blauer had over thirty years ago. He noticed that no one really used technical martial arts in real confrontations.
When you train with us, you will learn:
- How to reconnect with your intuition and instincts
- How to recognize a fear spike and how to listen to its signals
- How to manage fear
- Simple, functional movements based on how real people move
Training in the SPEAR System will teach anyone:
- How to reconnect to the human weapon system
- That 80% of confrontations could have been avoided
- The Three D’s: how to detect danger, defuse and de-escalate, and, if necessary, defend
- A simple, practical system congruent with your emotional and psychological state during a confrontation
The SPEAR system can be used by anyone looking for a simple and effective system of self-protection. Its approach will reawaken situational awareness and teach a patented approach to identifying and managing fear; the program includes verbal de-escalation and personal defense using natural biomechanics.
Learn more on the SPEAR System
Blauer Tactical Systems® research on the startle/flinch phenomena and its link to the survival system’s withdrawal reflex has spawned an important evolution in close-quarter training. The SPEAR System™ utilizes the speed and reliability of the startle/flinch mechanism to convert a sudden attack into a tactical counter.
The SPEAR SYSTEM™ is a behaviorally based close self-defense system informed by science, psychology, and human biomechanics. It uses hard-wired reflexes to enhance personal defense by improving a person’s ability to detect, intercept, and defend against 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.
