How to Protect Yourself & Your Loved Ones, Top Self-Defense Expert, Tony Blauer

10,000 NOs

Tony Blauer's image has been gracing the covers of Martial Arts and Self-Defense magazines for decades, he teaches tier-one operators, and he is a big deal in that world, but the reason I wanted to sit down with him for 10,000 "No"s is that his system, and the way he articulates it, is so personal, practical and applicable to each and every one of us. Contrary to the stereotype that a tough guy would go around bullying people, Tony believes that violence, and his own application of violence, should be avoided at all costs. When you hear this conversation it will not only make you more aware of your surroundings, but also more aware of your relationship to fear in all areas of your life. His rise to the top of his field was not without tremendous resilience to overcome the naysayers who mocked his new approach to self-defense. I encourage you all to not only listen, but following the episode, to check out the links in the show notes to get to know Tony's work in more detail and possibly even arrange to have him come to your community at some point. It could be the difference between life and death.
