« I've followed Nick for a number of years and as a cop in the UK where you rely on situational awareness and communication to engage with people, defusing situations and reading body language his advice and courses have been ideal, I've used them to compliment existing training and skills in so many situations now and believe it's played a considerable part in getting home safe... Nick provides practical advice for real world scenarios and is clearly passionate about passing on his wealth of experience and knowledge »

  « I had to pleasure and opportunity to train with Nick in NYC last year in a 3 hour Seminar it was non stop drills and techniques. Nicks approach to everyday encounters we are may face its right to the point, no BS moves. Nick's passion is unmatched; I've seen it first hand after the seminar Nick is reviewing and analyzing everything in the seminar frame by frame and taking notes etc. And this is after Nick was grappling/drills with each one in the class. The most impressive thing about Nick is his message listen to when he talks and understand what he's saying, it's very powerful. Thank you, Nick. I'll see you in the next seminar. Stay Strong. »

« I’m 67 years old and have practiced various self defense systems over the past 25 years. A few years ago I came across Nicks you tube channel. After viewing multiple videos I ended up purchasing several courses, including gun and knife defense, Agoge camp, bar fighting, and the Hero program. What makes these programs different from others I’ve done and makes them highly effective is that after teaching the fundamentals Nick doesn’t teach the 7 different moves you need to memorize for every possible type of attack. That’s unrealistic. He realizes that in the “fog of war” during an assault different scenarios present themselves.He breaks down how you have to take what the attacker gives you in terms of counterstrikes, realizing that every attack is different, therefore your response can't be preprogrammed.The fundamentals are taught in a step by step fashion, making them easy to learn and practice. At this point in my life I feel Nick’s programs give me everything I need to fell confident in my ability to protect myself and my family.

« In July I was at a small birthday gathering for a dear friend. She shared a birthday with a male friend of hers. They celebrated their birthday together. He got wasted! The next thing I knew, he's got me in a head lock and then flings me backwards still in this position on the couch, backwards!! My intuition led me to you videos just weeks before this happened and I learned how to protect myself and I remembered & my chin down and moved his arm away from my throat. I miraculously survived without a scratch. You were my guardian angel . Thank you for helping so many people and myself with your videos. You make a HUGE difference. Bless you, »
