WHAT IS THE HOLY GRAIL OF SELF DEFENSE?
1. HOW TO FIGHT WITH THE RUTHLESS INTENT, ANIMAL SPEED, MAXIMUM POWER AND DYNAMIC BALANCE OF A WILD JUNGLE CAT
2. HOW TO GO BEYOND ORDINARY SELF DEFENSE TRAINING THAT OFTEN CRIPPLES YOUR NATURAL SURVIVAL REFLEXES
3. HOW TO ADAPT AND DEFEND AGAINST A CONSTANTLY CHANGING ATTACK
4. HOW TO PENETRATE AND DESTROY A CONSTANTLY CHANGING DEFENSE
FACE FACTS:
1. It doesn't matter HOW MANY lethal targets you know--
       NO ONE is going to just LET you hit them!


It defies reason but there are extremely expensive "realistic" self defense courses out there that would have you dive in on your attacker and completely ignore what he's throwing at you--kind of like the ancient Samurai who believed they were immune to bullets fired from European guns.

2.
What's to stop a determined attacker from hitting your lethal targets
        FIRST?

Bad guys get a vote in the fight--they attack and defend also. If they're bigger, stronger and quicker, they can hit your eyes and throat before you hit theirs--OR they can block your attack and then hit you somewhere else--and not like you planned. Then what do you do?


3.
99.9% of self defense instruction relies on
       PATTERNED TECHNIQUE TRAINING.

You see it on Youtube all the time:
the "bad" guy "attacks" the instructor (who knows exactly what's coming, how and where), whereupon the instructor executes an amazingly fast and accurate defense response. Wow! If only reality was just like that! The delusion is: you think you can learn the "right" move for every attack. But here's the problem: REAL violence is a big, ugly mess that follows no script--just ask any cop or soldier. Competitive Sport fighting is no better: it has RULES to protect the competitors--life and death violence doesn't. If you had to save the life of your wife or child you'd need to fight a lot differently than you would in the ring. Remember what Bruce Lee said:


"THE WAY YOU TRAIN IS THE WAY YOU FIGHT."

4.
99.9% of self defense training forces your body to move UNNATURALLY.

We have innate animal reflexes that have been neutered by STYLIZED, SPORTIVE, FANCY, or ROBOTIVE self defense techniques. These cripple your speed, power, looseness and balance while locking up your brain and nervous system. TV and movies make it worse by contributing to cultural delusions about real violence and what fighting for your life really looks like.

IF YOU TRAIN WITH PATTERNED TECHNIQUES, SPORTIVE RULES OR A DELUSIONAL IDEA OF REAL VIOLENCE, THEN THAT'S THE WAY YOU'LL REACT WHEN YOUR LIFE DEPENDS ON IT.
If you want to SURVIVE, you have to be able to ADAPT and IMPROVISE on the spot--but where do you learn HOW to do that? Reality Based and ordinary Close Quarters Combat teach deadly strikes--but not how to ADAPT them to the CONSTANTLY CHANGING CHAOS of real violence. "Authentic" Tai Chi has the potential to teach you this, but it's almost impossible to find and could take a lifetime to learn, if ever.
Created by former forensic crime scene expert and New York police detective John Perkins, Guided Chaos will teach you how to improvise your self defense moment-by-moment, giving you what you need, when you need it, regardless of form or direction. You will instinctively create your defense on the spot with maximum power, speed and efficiency grounded by strict internal principles. Though Guided Chaos looks like tai chi--it is not--it has its roots in World War II Close Quarters Combat and Modified Native American Groundfighting.

APRIL 26-29 BOOT CAMP, ELMSFORD NY
THINK DIFFERENTLY.

The 4-day April 26-29th 2014 Boot Camp will be intense, amazing...and fun.


For beginners through experts.


This year we're making the two Guided Chaos/contact flow-focused days Saturday and Sunday so those who can only come for the weekend can get the benefit of the unique GC material.

Monday will be GC Combatives and a real ass-kicking, dummy-slamming day along with the 7 Scenario Training. This is the day to attend if you want to learn how to hit HARD and FAST right now--and put it to use as soon as you walk out the door. On Monday we will also show how GCC integrates into GC. Tuesday will be GC Groundfighting and way more intensive than last time, with more aspects of survival fighting WITHOUT grappling and how to keep from going to the ground in the first place--all essential against a stronger enemy who may have friends!

NOTE: GC Groundfighting is completely different from BJJ or MMA.


Pricing and discounts will be mostly similar to last time:
--$200/day if you pay by the day.
--$700 for all 4 days (you save $100) via credit card.

Blitz magazine article on Guided Chaos Australia Seminar:

"Let me start by saying I thought I'd seen all that the world of 'reality-based self defence' had to offer, so for the easily bored out there, I'll cut to the chase. What I witnessed on the weekend of 26 and 27 March is the closest thing I've come across that resembles a modern-day, reality-based martial art and not just another 'combatives system'. Does it work? Hell, yeah! I got my arse well and truly kicked and at times felt like I was in the middle of a Jason Bourne fight scene."
--Clive Girdham, former Senshido and Geoff Thompson instructor

[Excerpted from the exclusive review of the Guided Chaos Australia Seminar in the Aug. print edition of BLITZ MAGAZINE: Australia's #1 Martial Arts magazine volume 25, issue 6
"Guided Chaos is the only training in my 15 plus years of Corrections that translates into real world application, period."

"Guided Chaos is the only thing that has worked for me in real life situations. Unless you are 6'3" and 285 lbs of muscle, most of the Defensive Tactics stuff (ok all of the Defensive Tactics stuff) will get you hurt. And even if you are that big and strong, there is always  someone bigger and stronger and there may be a lot of them. Nothing like dealing with one guy and it turns into a free for all with all his buddies. This is where you literally need to 'adapt or die' and Guided Chaos is the only training in my 15 plus years of Corrections that translates into real world application, period."
---Bob Miller, Corrections Officer at the largest facility in Oregon
"If I had to pick only one martial arts system in the world it would be Guided Chaos..."--Dr. Robert L. O'Block founder and publisher of the American College of Forensic Examiners International, American Board for Certification in Homeland Security
 

"...through watching videos put out by attackproof.com, and by reading Attackproof, the book, I have learned real survival skills. These skills have been learned...at an exponentially higher practical yield-per-hour training rate than any other martial art classes or seminar I've ever attended, or ever even heard rumor of."
--Matthew Shoener, Police Officer, Scranton, PA


"The Companion Video Part One is stupendous!
A godsend of detail for out-of-state practitioners."
