- HYBRID FIGHTING METHODInside every person lies a beast waiting to be awakened. Men and women alike, capable of protecting themselves and others with unparalleled ferocity. This awakening is what the Hybrid Fighting Method™ is all about.The Hybrid Fighting Method™ (HFM™) evolved from a series of combat methodologies to become an extremely efficient, no-nonsense, and easily performed combative system!Not only does HFM™ extract and modify techniques and principles from a variety of effective combative systems, but it is also forged from years of street fight experience - giving it modern urban combat authenticity.Innovations regarding new and existing techniques are examined - and if found congruent with the philosophy of HFM™ - are integrated into the system. This makes HFM™ an open and evolving system that has its finger on the pulse of modern day violent attacks.The whole purpose and/or intent of the Hybrid Fighting Method™ is to help someone weather the storm of physical violence to the point where they can escape. This often means affecting an injury on the attacker.With your training in the Hybrid Fighting Method™:• You will learn how to cause an injury. Where to hit, how to hit, and when to hit.• You will be able incapacitate your opponent - irrespective of their size, strength, or martial arts experience.• You will be able to execute essential and straightforward moves that will save your life.In HFM™ it is maintained that each human being is a “survival machine”. As such, the HFM™ practitioner combines dedicated practice while developing a warrior mindset. This mind-body connection is crucial to HFM’s™ effectiveness – for survival of an attack does not lie in the accumulation of techniques alone, but in the forging of the entire being into a human weapon.-------------------------------------------------------------------HFM-ICE PROGRAMWelcome to the Hybrid Fighting Method ICE Program. ICE stands for Interception, Control, and Escort Tactics.While the main focus of the Hybrid Fighting Method is survival in a violent encounter, there is also a genuine need among law enforcement and security professionals to be able to take control of a situation and not use excessive force.Self-defense doesn't apply when you are a bouncer and have to escort a person off the premises, and they are being uncooperative but not assaultive.It is an inappropriate use of force if you are a law enforcement officer and a subject you are approaching starts yelling at you, to elbow him in the face.Professionals that deal with the public in these contexts need strategies and tactics to address myriad situations while not escalating the level of force required.This is where the HFM-ICE program comes in.In this program, you will learn:- Tactical Communication (Verbal, Para-verbal, Nonverbal)- Escort and Control Positions- Takedowns from all Escort and Control Positions- Supine Controls- Prone Controls- Controlled Rollovers from Supine Position to Prone Position- Transitions both ways between Controls and EscortsOf course, coupled with the Hybrid Fighting Method main curriculum, you will be prepared to handle any situation, regardless of the context or use of force required.The HFM-ICE program is a MUST for anyone that serves as a security or law enforcement professional. It is much like the main HFM system in that it is everything you need, and nothing you don't.

Founder's Bio
- T.J. began his childhood infatuated with martial arts through cinema. His father was a martial arts enthusiast with experience in Kung Fu, Tae Kwon Do, and Karate. During high school in 1994, T.J. enrolled in Tae Kwon Do lessons with his father at a local training center. Once he began training, he was hooked and a lifelong passion was born.Since then T.J. has trained extensively in many systems, which include: Krav Maga, Muay Thai, Boxing, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Bujinkan Ninjutsu, Rince an Bhata Uisce Beatha (Irish Stick Fighting), and a variety of other methodologies. He has been teaching martial arts since 2004.In addition to training, T.J. has worked extensively for years within nightclub security as a bouncer. This has brought with it the hands-on experience of becoming directly involved in or the breaking up of hundreds of street and bar fights. This “real life” training ground has led to a focus on realism in T.J.’s training. Anything that works is used, and anything that doesn’t work is discarded.Wanting to teach a system that he totally believes in – and that has total efficacy – T.J. took and modified techniques from all of these systems – combined with some techniques of his own creation – and formed a hybrid system that was named the HYBRID FIGHTING METHOD™. T.J. now teaches the Hybrid Fighting Method™ (HFM™) as a complete method of self-defense.T.J. regularly volunteers with different organizations - some of which are as follows: White Ribbon Campaign, Fighting For Lives, Canadian Cancer Society.T.J. is also an expert author on self-defense and violence prevention and can often be found poring over a library of books on evolutionary psychology, the psychology of violence, and violence prevention.To get in touch with T.J. directly, email:tj@hybridfightingmethod.com
