| MaxDefense |
Our Mission Statement: The MaxDefense mission is two fold. First, we provide a clear and concise vehicle for you to defend yourself. In addition and perhaps more profoundly, we enable you to be empowered in your daily life, a byproduct that comes from knowing you are in control of your own personal safety and self defense.
Each student has a unique starting point and set of capabilities. MaxDefense is experienced in customizing training experiences to meet each student's goals, taking into account the student's age, gender, physical stature, profession/daily activities, self defense experience or possible exposure to past violence, and athleticism. We train each individual as an individual and yet we are committed to the same result for each student: the ability to defend yourself when needed and your increased personal empowerment in your daily life.
At the core of everything we do at MaxDefense is our base, American Combat System. American Combat System is not a sport. It is a system designed to give everyone from the common everyday civilian to the trained soldier the techniques and mindset to disrupt any attacker in any situation; whether that is to subdue or to incapacitate the attacker. Unlike traditional martial arts the system does not have belt ranking but rather levels that you progress through. A.C.S. assumes that even the simplest aggressor can severely harm or even take your life. With that being understood all techniques and steps are designed to get maximum results in debilitating your aggressor with maximum efficiency.
Core Principles in American Combat System:
• Avoid injury • Do not place yourself in compromising situations • Determine your aggressor by biological giveaways • Once aggressor is determined use offensive defense principle • Use natural movements of body and A.C.S. numbered concept • Use the most devastating techniques to the vulnerable areas of your attacker • Be the VICTOR not the victim by any means necessary |
Stephen Spivey is a worldwide leading authority in self defense. At an early age, he was wired for reality-based self defense. His self defense training started in the adversarial streets of New Orleans, as fighting was common place in his neighborhood. Wanting to give Stephen a fighting chance, his mother enrolled him in a local martial arts studio.
Stephen developed the innovative reality-based self defense system, American Combat System, and the highly-requested seminar series, MaxDefense. Both of these systems are touted as cutting edge in the self defense community. People travel from great distances to participate in this unique training and he has traveled far and wide to meet the requests for his seminars.
During his career there have been many highlights, but none compare to being able to teach our Armed Forces. Along with teaching, in some capacity, personnel from all of the U.S. military branches, Stephen has had the unique opportunity to teach members of various special operations units such as U.S. Army Rangers and SEAL team members. He has also instructed law enforcement, to include S.W.A.T., and D.E.A. officers. He has worked security for various celebrities and music artists including Hank Williams, Jr., Linda Ronstadt and John Mellencamp.
Stephen has solidified his philosophies and techniques through testing and application in real-life. These scenarios have come by way of his experience as the head instructor in his self defense studios, as a U.S. Army Paratrooper within the 18th Airborne Corp, a security consultant, and concert security. In addition, Stephen has benefited from the less formal, but arguably more instructive, experiences of various street combative scenarios.
Along with many accolades in the self defense industry - including the nations best studio in 2005, and best studio in Atlanta (Sports & Fitness Magazine) 2005, Stephen has been praised for his, "intelligent approach to self-defense training coupled with a wicked arsenal of techniques." But he believes that, even more to the point, his training offers a big dose of personal empowerment for everyone who graces his doors or attends one of his seminars. |
At The MaxDefense Training Center our goal is personal empowerment for everyone that graces our doors. One of the ways we do this is through our unique self defense seminar approach. We have developed a seminar system that is not rivaled anywhere in the country! We teach two systems. First being American Combat System and second being the MaxDefense seminar system. Both of these systems teach you how to utilize the powerful effects of fear and adrenaline.
In MaxDefense, you will learn in just a few hours how anyone can back down over 85% of all aggressors without any physical force at all! And if necessary, how to use adrenaline as the great equalizer, which can allow you to successfully defend yourself against a larger and stronger opponent! This confidence will carry over into all aspects of your life, giving you access to choices you never before dreamed of!
American Combat System combines the most effective self defense moves with knees and elbows, gun and knife defenses, along with combat groundwork. Our ground work is on street and military combatives. It was created to be a "street effective" martial art. This starts with relevant training combined with practical application and good technique. |
