THE SPEAR SYSTEM® COMBINES THE OLD BRAIN'S MOST IMPORTANT FUNCTION, TO SURVIVE, WITH THE NEW BRAIN'S INTELLIGENCE, TO THINK AND DECIDE.
WE HAVE REAWAKENED A NON-PERISHABLE PERSONAL DEFENSE SYSTEM THAT CAN MAKE EVERY HUMAN BEING SAFER, SOONER.
We 'train the brain' by replicating realistic scenarios, this educates the anticipatory cells in the brain which improves both perception speed and reaction time.
You’re safer faster because the neocortex can now predict and adjust more quickly as it identifies pre-contact cues stored from this intelligent simulation training.
““Having attended over 104 contact hours of Tony Blauer’s courses and studied an additional 200+ hours of seminar and DVD videos, it is my professional opinion that Mr. Blauer’s combatives system possesses the requisite scientific applications in research that make his system “scientific”. The SPEAR System® is a “total combatives system” that is intrinsically inclined—based upon kinesiology, physiology, neurobiology, and other, natural sciences. Because it considers the application of intrinsic kinesic actions (flinch conversion) from a basic, human response to sudden and close movement (a flinch), the system is considered by Mr. Blauer as “behaviorally inspired—genetically wired”.
In addition to being based on science, as described above, the SPEAR System®, in its totality, is a system created by valid, scientific processes from natural observations, correlations, and experiments garnered within the process of the scientific method. Through experimental tests, Mr. Blauer’s hypothesis has been accepted as a valid description of nature, as the predictions agree with experimental results.””
OUR COURSES INCLUDE SCIENCE & PSYCHOLOGY TO HELP STUDENTS UNDERSTAND HOW THE BRAIN LEARNS & STORES STRATEGIES FOR MOVEMENT AND DECISION-MAKING.
““”Danger” is detected via the limbic system and triggers this survival response. At this level it bypasses cognition. The SPEAR System® harnesses this energy, exploits the movement, and converts this instinctive response into a focused counter-measure. This movement is protective by nature and tactical by design.””
The SPEAR System® is based on an 80,000-year-old genetic survival response that helped keep our ancestors alive.
Your reptilian brain wants you to survive.
Its initial response to danger is to protect your head and push you away from danger.
“Danger” is detected via the limbic system. This triggers an instinctive survival response called the 'startle flinch response.
This survival reflex is hard-wired in you.
When it is triggered, it bypasses cognition. This is neurophysiology.
This explains why no one looks cool in a real fight and why you almost never see technical martial arts being used in real violent encounters.
The SPEAR System® harnesses this energy, then exploits the energy by converting it into a focused counter-measure. This is kinetics & physics.
This movement is protective by nature and tactical by design and it’s all organic, your body-mind produces this.
The SPEAR System® combines the fastest human response (the startle flinch) with the strongest natural human kinetic movement (the cross-extensor reflex), making the SPEAR a simple to learn, extremely effective method of personal defense regardless of gender, age, or size.
“Neurophysiology and brain-based learning is the next frontier in human performance.”
