Fight Mentor is a private fight training class. 'Self Defense' is a nice way to say 'Fighting'. Let's call it what it is...It's fighting.

Not sure what a Fight Mentor class is all about? Would you like to TRY a class?

I will give you a FREE 30 minute trial class.

All you need is boxing gloves.

Send and email to [email protected]. I will send you a scheduling link to schedule your first class.

Why a 2-4 hour self defense course doesn't help you...

1. You won't remember the information
Studies have shown that 10 minutes after a good presentation only 50% of the audience will remember what was said. A mere 24 hours later, that number drops to 25%. By the end of the week, only about 10% will remember what was said.

Fight Mentor is an ongoing program. It lasts until you feel like you can fight your way out of a situation.

2. When you are in a group setting, the information is designed around the dumbest person/people in the room.

Fight Mentor is designed to be for 1-2 people and is tailored specifically for those 1-2 people. Instructors are trained in all three learning styles - Auditory, Visual and Kinesthetic.

3. Most Self Defense courses are just suggestions of what to pay attention to.

Fight Mentor classes will give you resources and videos of actual altercations so you can see for yourself how things happen from actual security camera footage. We post the videos in our Private member's group.

AND...it's super FUN!

You actually TRAIN (hit things and hit people) and learn the tools and concepts that can save your life. You have to make your reactions 2nd nature. The tools and concepts have to be part of your nervous system. You also have to decide BEFORE you ever get into an altercation what YOU are going to do in various scenarios.

We fight in EVERY class.

There are two main parts to learning to fight:

1. Tools - Techniques, body language cues, weapons
2. Mindset - The willingness to use the tools

The most important of these is the mindset.

Let me give you the mindset AND the tools. I will teach you at YOUR pace and I will keep it mostly fun. You don't have to have any fighting experience.

If you want to be a badass, I will show you how.

This course is for adults and older teens only.

Send me an email to [email protected] and tell me what you want. You can also call 214-945-5742. The best way is the email. I stay pretty busy. If you call, you will have to leave a message.

Your first lesson will even be half price.

"Anything you know that you don't or can't use is just trivia'.

Everyone always tells me that in a confrontation, they would have NO trouble hurting another human that was trying to hurt them.

When I get them in class and tell them to hit me, they start giggling and feel real uncomfortable just Safe Fighting with me. They typically start punching me right in my arms or gloves. They don't want to hit me in the stomach or face. I have to trash talk a bit to get them to hit a little bit.

You will do what you are trained to do. Having trouble hitting someone is a hesitation and hesitation will get you hurt. You learn to hit people by....hitting people. Bags and mitts teach technique. Nothing replaces hitting another person, though.

This is why you have to train.

Hey Everyone!

Fight Mentor starts this week!

What do you think are the main skills that a human should learn just to grow up in the world? Manners? Hygiene? Professionalism? Work Ethic?

Why doesn’t Personal Protection make the cut? Why not self-defense? Why shouldn’t it be as important as manners?

We aren’t ‘interested’ in manners when we are kids…But we see the value of them as we get older. Fighting (self-defense) could be the same way.

Is your plan to always let someone else be responsible for YOUR protection?

In life, people are going to either wag their finger (talk) at you or throw a punch at you. Words don’t always work. What are YOU going to do when your words don’t work? Cry? Beg? Plead? Cower? Submit? What is your ‘plan’ for the punch?

What if you are alone and are picked by a predator? What if you are with your wife or husband? Would that change the dynamic of the engagement? What if you were with your 6 year old and were approached?

How do predators pick a victim? Do they tend to attack the strong? Or the weak? The distracted?

Think about it…do you EVER think about it?

Military, law enforcement and the FBI have the data to prove that you will do what you’re trained to do. So…what are you trained to do?

In my profession, I have talked to 1000’s of people about this stuff. I am always interested in people’s opinions on what they ‘think’ they would do. I have had quite a few tell me that they carry a gun. They went to a gun range 2 years ago. That’s great. If a paper target stands perfectly still at 8 feet away, they will hit somewhere on the paper. Most of those gun toters don’t have it on them when they are talking to me…because I ask them. A gun is just a tool and it is completely useless if you aren’t willing to use it.

So…I guess you heard about the lady jogger in Plano that was found dead in a creek at the beginning of August.

The death of a 43-year-old woman whose body was found in a Plano creek Saturday morning was the result of a random attack, police say.

Did you know that most victims all say the same thing? “I never thought it would happen to me.”

The words ‘self-defense’ are a pretty way to say FIGHT. I like to call it what it is….it’s FIGHTING. Fight Mentor is where I show YOU how to fight…and you can totally use it to defend yourself.

Let me break the program down for you:
1. There are only about 16 basic striking techniques. So, it’s simple. I even teach the concept or the ‘thought’ behind the various moves.
2. There are about 18 blocking systems and concepts. I know it sounds like a lot. Each one has the potential to move seamlessly to another.
3. I teach about 6 basic footwork drills.
4. Then we have the mental stuff – strategy, emotional control, awareness, avoidance, mindset and commitment. Mindset is the most important. It could be said easier like this…there are two sets of skills you MUST have. One is the ability to hit another human being with the intent to cause harm. The second one is the ability to get hit and stay in the fight. A short 2 or 4 hour self-defense course can NOT give you the mindset you need to survive the encounter.
5. The total program covers: Boxing for hands, taekwondo for kicks, muay thai for elbows and knees, jiu jitsu for joint locks, Brazillian Jiu Jitsu for ground fighting, basic stick fighting and basic knife fighting.

How will I teach it to you?
It’s all taught at YOUR pace. That’s why it needs to be private lesson based. There’s no group that you need to keep up with. In a small group, I can customize it to YOU.

We start with boxing. It’s the easiest and fastest one to get into to. After you get to a certain level of understanding with boxing we move to another ‘range’.

The progression works like this: We learn the moves, we drill and we Safe Fight. You will hit pads and then a partner.

The total program is about the different ‘ranges’ of combat. There are 8 ranges. We will study 7 of them. The eighth range is projectile range…like guns. I have even been researching a tactical shooting school for later.

That’s what Fight Mentor is.

How long would it take to go through everything? If you did twice per week…depending on the person…about 6 months to go through everything. To some it may sound like a long time. We have to get the moves and concepts into your nervous system though. I want to make it reflexive and automatic for your body.

The last thing I guess I should tell you is that IT’S FUN! Why? Because I teach it. I am THE MOST FUN! LOL!

If you would like more information, email me at [email protected]. I am only taking 8-10 clients to start. If you ask me, I will send you all the prices. Time is not an issue. These are private lessons and can be scheduled at almost any time.

See you soon!
