It seems surreal to think that 25 years ago today, I was working in the Mediterranean for the United States Military Sealift Command, providing maritime security.

As the world stood still and watched the terrorist attacks on the Twin Towers unfold, the ships we were protecting carrying vital military cargo were immediately rerouted through the Suez Canal towards Diego Garcia, a strategically important military base in the Indian Ocean.

During the voyage, members of the United States Marine Corps FAST Fleet Anti terrorism Security Team came aboard. I was given the privilege of teaching unarmed combat to members of the team while we were in transit, and I continued training personnel after arriving at Diego Garcia.

These photographs were taken during that period and bring back powerful memories of a moment that changed the world forever.

Today, my thoughts and prayers are with every innocent person who lost their life, those who were injured, and the families, friends and emergency responders whose lives were changed forever.

We will never forget. 🙏

Catastrophic Bleeding Control Skills 🩸

A fantastic opportunity to deliver practical catastrophic bleeding control training to members of the South Western Ambulance Service and the Fire & Rescue Service.

The session focused on recognising and controlling potentially life threatening haemorrhage, with participants learning how to correctly apply tourniquets and effectively pack wounds.

Using realistic simulation equipment and training wounds allowed everyone to practise these vital skills in a practical environment, building confidence before progressing into more challenging scenario based training.

Realistic training. Practical skills. Confidence to act when it matters.

This weekend, I had the fantastic opportunity to teach Pekiti-Tirsia Kali under the PTTA, alongside TRICOM Edged Weapon Countermeasures, to a truly outstanding group of individuals.

Everyone trained with incredible enthusiasm, focus and commitment, with several participants successfully testing and progressing to their next level in Pekiti-Tirsia Kali.

I would also like to congratulate Aaron who has done an exceptional job preparing everyone for their assessments, and thank Barry for helping me deliver the seminar and assess those who tested.

A brilliant weekend of training, development and shared knowledge. Congratulations to everyone who levelled up your progression was thoroughly deserved!

Over the years, I’ve been fortunate to train with some truly outstanding martial artists people with exceptional skills, experience and teaching methods.

Some taught sport martial arts at the highest level. Others taught concepts designed specifically for real-world self-preservation.

One instructor in particular developed my understanding of biting as a last-resort survival tool. Some people may consider this inappropriate or unacceptable and, outside a genuine self-preservation situation, I would agree.

However, this was never taught as simply “bite your attacker.” I was taught how to establish control and bite from a position where the attacker could not easily pull away or remove me, maintaining that control until they psychologically surrendered and the immediate threat ended.

Since learning this method, I have been forced to use it on three separate occasions. Each time, it was applied with the same understanding with which it was taught: not through anger, punishment or a desire to cause unnecessary injury, but as a desperate measure to stop a genuine threat and survive.

Self-preservation is not always clean, technical or socially comfortable. Sometimes survival requires methods that would have no place in sport but only when they are necessary, proportionate and legally justifiable.

If your self-preservation training focuses only on physical techniques, it is missing the most important elements.

Genuine self-preservation must include:

• Situational awareness
• Recognising danger
• Avoidance and de-escalation
• Escape and disengagement
• Understanding UK law
• Protecting yourself and others
• Physical intervention as a last resort

Effective training must also prepare people for surprise, verbal aggression, confined spaces, multiple threats, weapons and decision-making under pressure not simply rehearsing techniques with a cooperative partner.

If these elements are missing, you may be learning a fighting system or practising a combat sport but you are not being fully prepared for self-preservation.

Self-Preservation, Not Self-Perfection.

🥋 MARTIAL ARTS HAS RULES. VIOLENCE DOESN’T.

I’ve trained martial arts for the majority of my life and competed at a high level.

Over the years, I’ve also found myself in numerous real world situations, in very different environments, where physical violence became necessary to deal with an immediate threat.

And there is something I’ve consistently learned:

Not once did those situations resemble competition.

In competition, there was a rule set. There were prohibited techniques. There was a referee. There was an opponent who had agreed to participate and an opportunity to showcase the skills I had spent thousands of hours developing.

Real violence was completely different.

It was chaotic. Aggressive. Disruptive. Unpredictable. And when physical action became unavoidable, my response was often far more direct and brutal than anything I would use within a sporting environment.

Because the objective wasn’t to win a fight.

It was to stop the threat, create an opportunity to disengage and get home safely.

That distinction matters.

If the only tools you’re prepared to use are those you’ve trained through countless repetitions within the rules permitted by your martial art, you’re still operating within a rule set that an attacker never agreed to.

Martial arts can give you incredible attributes and skills.

But don’t confuse being good at fighting within an agreed rule set with being prepared for uncontrolled violence.

Martial arts has rules. Violence doesn’t.

SELF-PRESERVATION, NOT SELF-PERFECTION.

Martial arts can certainly contribute to self-defence, but the two are not automatically the same.

Martial arts develop valuable fighting skills, fitness, timing, discipline and confidence often within sporting or traditional rules.

Real-world self-defence begins before anything becomes physical. It includes awareness, recognising danger, avoidance, de-escalation, escape, understanding UK law and protecting yourself or others. Physical intervention should always be the last resort.

Effective self-defence training should also prepare people for surprise, verbal aggression, confined spaces, multiple threats, weapons and making decisions under pressure not simply practising techniques with a cooperative partner.

At C360 Protector, we teach practical self-protection and self-preservation: helping ordinary people recognise danger, respond appropriately and function under chaos.

🥋 SPORT JIU-JITSU IS BEAUTIFUL.

It develops timing, control, movement and an exceptional understanding of grappling.

But introduce punches, elbows and knees and the game changes immediately.

Positions that feel safe in competition can become dangerous. Guards must protect against strikes. Takedowns must account for impact. Control must have a purpose.

This isn’t criticism of sport Jiu-Jitsu it’s understanding context.

Different environments demand different priorities.

Train intelligently. Train with pressure.
Train for the reality you expect to face.
