UNARMED TACTICS
A fusion of martial arts, combat athletics and real-world self-preservation. The training draws predominantly from the arts of Jeet Kune Do, Filipino Kali, Boxing, Muay Thai and Gracie Jiu Jitsu. However, these methods have been filtered through fifteen years of real-life experience, to a core of efficient and functional combat. If it hasn’t proven itself in the real world, against a fully resisting opponent, it's not Unarmed Tactics.

Michael Wright has been training in the martial arts for thirty five years and teaching for the last twenty five.
He served for eight years with the UK Armed Forces, where he taught his system across many units. He then became an Operational Officer with a HM Government agency,
putting his skills to the test on the frontline of law enforcement.
Michael spent over a decade working in Close Protection, for high-profile clients across the world. His bespoke training programs have been utilised by elite Military units, specialist Police teams and Government agencies.
He is the author of the book "SURVIVE:
The Definitive Guide to Unarmed Tactics".
