It doesn't take years to learn real self-defence. It takes days
"War arts": That's the literal meaning of the words "martial arts". Unfortunately, most martial arts schools do not, and can not, prepare you for the "wars" you and your loved ones are most likely to face: armed robberies, carjacking's, gang attacks, criminal stabbing's, drive-by shootings, acts of terrorism, and sexual harassment and sexual assault for you women.
The reason Reality-Based Personal Protection is the "original reality-based martial art" is and not just because Jim Wagner coined the phrase back in 1999, but because of his background that few Self Defence instructors can match: former soldier, corrections officer, street cop, SWAT team officer, diplomatic bodyguard, counter terrorist Special Agent for the United States government after 9/11, police and military firearms instructor, and defensive tactics instructor.
Jim Wagner's Reality-Based Personal Protection system has revolutionized the way people are learning self-defence. It's easy-to-learn, easy-to-teach, and most of all - realistic! Students and instructors from every type of traditional and sport-based martial arts you can imagine are coming to the system. Even many of the world's elite police and military units have come to Jim Wagner for training: German counter terrorist team GSG9, the Israeli National Police Academy, the FBI, Argentinean G.O.E., Brazilian G.A.T.E., the U.S. Army, Finland's National Police Academy, the Royal Dutch Police, the German Federal Police Academy, the DEA, Homeland Security, and the list goes on.
You have got the possibility to become a certified Reality-Based Personal Protection instructor, if you wish to teach this system in the future.
