Episode 832: Teaching The Younger Generation with Tony Blauer

On this episode, Dennis speaks with fear management expert, self-defense expert and mindset educator, Tony Blauer. Coach Blauer has been in the martial art, self-defense, defensive tactics, and combatives industry for almost four decades and is one of the only combatives experts who has successfully affected training across all the combat related communities: self-defense, combat sports, and the military & law enforcement sector. His research on physiology, mindset as it relates to confrontation management, has influenced over three decades of reality-based martial artists. His company, Blauer Tactical Systems (BTS), specializes in the research and development of close quarter tactics & scenario-based training for law enforcement, military, and professional self-defense. Tony founded Blauer Tactical Systems (BTS) in 1985 and it has grown into one of the world’s leading consulting companies specializing in the research and development of performance psychology, personal safety, and close quarter tactics & scenario-based training for law enforcement, military, and professional self-defense instructors. His research on the neuroscience of fear and the startle-flinch lead to the development of the SPEAR System, a modern personal defense system based on physiology, physics, and psychology. It has been used by defensive tactics and combative trainers all over the world for over 30 years. After decades of interviewing victims of violent encounters and studying violence, he then created the KNOW FEAR program which focuses on managing fear through self-awareness, resiliency and a ‘movement’ mindset. And so this conversation is about managing fear – but it extends far beyond self-defense. Today, Dennis and Tony talk all about teaching the younger generation of police officers.
