The C-Tac Self-Defense Program
Many of today’s martial arts programs fail to provide the comprehensive self-defense training individuals need to protect themselves and their loved ones. They neglect essential aspects of modern-day self-defense, such as legal considerations, de-escalation techniques, and protection in specific environments near or inside vehicles. The result is training that needs to adequately prepare students for real-world scenarios, leaving them vulnerable when it matters most. C-Tac addresses this with a new approach to self-defense training that considers the unique challenges of our current society and equips individuals with the skills, knowledge, and confidence they need to ensure their safety and that of their loved ones.

What People Are Saying
As a student of the arts for 40-plus years, I have had the good fortune to receive training in several different martial arts systems. All of which I found to be beneficial. While I was confident in my ability to defend myself, I was uncertain how to do so while remaining on the right side of the law. The C-Tac Civilian Tactical SelfDefense Program has taught me to handle almost any potentially life-threatening situation while minimizing the risk of death or serious injury to myself or a would-be attacker. From de-escalating with proper posturing, proper vocal commands, or environmental awareness to significantly increase my odds of survival if violently attacked. I have never experienced training that compared to the instruction that I have received in the Civilian Tactical Program under the direction of Sifu Alan Baker.
