S.P.E.A.R. System: "Outside 90"

One of the human body's natural reflexes is to push away danger - may that be an incoming potential attacker or an actual violent push, tackle or punch. In respect of trajectory, angles and speed that reflex surely can look different.

In this short video, taken at a recent "Be Your Own Bodyguard" Seminar Coach Tony Blauer, founder of the S.P.E.A.R. System and CEO of Blauer Tactical Systems shows basic applications of this natural defense mechanism.

I will say. This system is beautiful. It is really easy to learn and it fits perfectly in "MMA" or sport systems. Becasue it works "LIVE" . I mean jujitsu's framing the kneck and blocking the crossface? thai clinching>? this works beautifully. Its nothing new its just a better package and presentation and great teaching.

@valgorlin I humbly disagree, Sir. The Spear System is actually NOT designed to fit into sports. It is behaviorally based and therefor meant to apply in the "real world", where actual natural behavior plays a huge part. And if I may refer to my reply on your comment on the other video: what your eyes see here is only a quite small piece of the whole picture. I mean this video here is actually titled "Outside 90", so of course Coach Blauer focusses on that. Nevertheless thanks for commenting.

I like this guy, he's funny.

It seems like a good reflex to have, and easy to learn.

@119Elias119 Thx, Sir. The funny guy is Tony Blauer, in my eyes one of the greatest authorities when it comes to practical self defense, conflict management and close quarter tactics.

You see that's the neat thing about reflexes - you don't have to learn them at all. There all yours already. What you need to learn is converting them into combative options, i.e. getting back in the fight and doing what's necessary to overcome the thread. That's what the S.P.E.A.R. System is all about.

Richard Ryan calls this the power sheild.

@valgorlin Did not mean it as being a sport technique. Im just saying that it has some of the same qulaities because of the simple "live"ness of the move. Framing is comon in bjj for example.

I learnt this at a law-enforcement agency in Hong Kong, where PPCT prevails... i opine this is the best self-defense technique ever.. esp. for small built female officers..

@PDRgermany

Ah, well to clarify my comment, it seems like a good reflex to refine
