Regional Seminar Greater Chicago Area
November 21st 2009
PDR™…Is based on the S.P.E.A.R. SYSTEM™, which is the first genetically, and behaviorally inspired self-defense course. Developed by world renowned self defense and personal safety pioneer Tony Blauer, it is the only self-defense method that fully integrates the body’s reflexive responses and instinctive survival mechanisms making S.P.E.A.R. the easiest, most natural way to protect yourself. This 1-day seminar is open to the public and will challenge, and enlighten everyone who attends.
These courses cover many of Tony Blauer’s most important concepts & principles including our renowned mind-set & fear management strategies that include important components from the Cerebral Self-Defense™, Cycle of Behavior™ and Be Your Own Bodyguard™ programs.
PDR regional seminars are suitable for both experienced and new attendees. Classes flow from mind-set, to contact, to confrontation, using our Three D’s model: ‘Detect, Defuse, Defend’. Using our Non-Violent Postures™ you will learn how to identify pre-contact cues, position for interception and convert the startle-flinch using the S.P.E.A.R. System™.
Time permitting the training will also feature High Gear™ training and or demonstrations related to the seminars theme.
This course will not interfere with any prior training and can be used to augment any personal toolbox.

“This class was AWESOME! I still can’t believe what we were able to learn in such a short time. I was not sure what to expect, especially having no martial arts background. Your teaching techniques and program are definitely geared to all. Your knowledge, passion, and belief in the S.P.E.A.R. System were evident throughout the day. How fulfilling it must be to teach others such a valuable tool for survival. This is something you really can’t afford to miss. I feel very lucky that fate directed me to this course. Thank you Tony Blauer for creating such a program.”
Kelli, Firefighter/EMT

Greg Major of Bulldog Crossfit had this to say about the recent Chicago regional: “What an amazing event. Thanks to Tom Arcuri of the Blauer Team for putting on a fun but extremely educational and informative event. Tom kept us on our toes, entertained and totally involved. The time went by so fast and even though we barely scratched the surface, everyone could take away considerably more knowledge and confidence than they walked in with this morning. It was great to have our CrossFit friends from the CrossFit community in Milwaukee. More to come.”
