Expertise

I can answer any questions about self defense, rape prevention, tactical shooting, edged and impact weapons and pre-contact cues / awareness.

I will give practical answers in plain English about self defense that do not require fine motor skills or fancy, difficult to execute traditional martial arts moves.

Experience

It's important that you get advice from someone who has applied, and not just theoretical knowledge of this subject. Aside from getting my head kicked in in more than a few brawls, I have experience in both MMA and Traditional martial arts.

I Hold a brown belt in Nan Sho Kempo Jujutsu under Sensei Jason May, and have cross trained in Aikido under John Lemont, Wing Chun Kung Fu under Sigun Phillip Holder, MMA and Western Boxing under Mike Lace of Lace Security.
