The Protection Mission
Protecting a client is different from winning a fight.
Protection Response Tactics is a protection specific defensive tactics system developed for executive protection agents, corporate security personnel, private security teams, and professionals responsible for protecting others. The system places client safety, risk reduction, evacuation, public context, and professional accountability ahead of personal victory.
Only Public Complete Program
These EPI courses are the only public training events where Alan Baker teaches all six phases of Protection Response Tactics together. The remainder of the year is primarily dedicated to instructor development and private training for protection teams, agencies, and organizations.
Complete Curriculum
Six progressive phases. One integrated protection system.
Each phase develops a different area of professional capability while remaining connected to judgment, proportionality, the force continuum, the principal, and the environment.
Assault Tactics And Vertical Surfaces
Manage higher resistance, dynamic assaults, wall engagements, environmental obstacles, and threats to protectors and clients.
Weapon Disarming
Study principle based responses involving firearms and edged weapon problems within the protection environment.
Environment Specific Tactics
Address vehicles, confined spaces, protective movement, client evacuation, and environmental problem solving.
Counter Grappling And Ground Control
Develop recovery, mobility, control, client protection, and the ability to return to a functional standing position.
Armed Pummeling And Standing Grappling
Integrate standing grappling with the awareness, position, retention, and decision demands created by armed protection work.
