Chris has studied with respectable martial artists from around the world. He developed the STACT Fighting System by taking from these martial arts damaging techniques, applications, theories, and principles to form a more direct and comprehensive system. The STACT curriculum involves the study of psychology, weapons of defense, anatomy of attacker, ground skills, guard systems, defense against common attacks, strategy, improvised weapons, and rules of engagement; conditioning drills, throws, takedowns, locks, strikes, and much more! STACT teaches these techniques and applies them to real life aggression. Once understood these skills and principles will provide the knowledge necessary to help you avoid and/or survive violent conflict.
