I’ve had the privilege of knowing Sifu Alan Baker for over 20 years, and he has been a transformative influence in my life. As my martial arts instructor, he guided me through multiple disciplines, including Jeet Kune Do, Filipino Kali, Silat, Kung Fu, Qi Gong, and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu. His depth of knowledge is remarkable, but what truly sets him apart is his ability to teach in a way that resonates on both a technical and personal level. Under Sifu Alan’s mentorship, I not only became one of his instructors but also developed my own teaching ability and style. He has an incredible gift for identifying what a student needs to succeed and tailoring his guidance to meet those needs. He doesn’t just follow a set path; he understands the origins of the path and how to forge new ones, empowering his students to do the same. Now, as my business mentor, Sifu Alan has continued to elevate my thinking—not just in martial arts and self-defense, but also in personal development and business. His passion, creativity, and unique approach to problem-solving have been invaluable to my growth. If you’re looking for an instructor or mentor who is dedicated, insightful, and genuinely invested in your success, I cannot recommend Sifu Alan Baker highly enough.

Outstanding!!!! We called Alan because our kids were wanting personalized self defense training and he set up a private session for us and came to our location. He was just what we needed and left us thirsty for more training we will be planning with him. Our kids had a blast and he left them with plenty to practice before their next session which is great.

Absolutely the real deal! I’ve done two courses with Alan & both were incredible. The attention to detail and instruction were both top notch. I highly recommend learning from Sifu Alan Baker!. His knowledge is so widespread he will offer you a unique mastery that goes far above and beyond the singular scope of just one martial art discipline. Learn a mindset, and how to utilize all the skills

I had the pleasure of getting to know Sifu Alan Baker while building a duplex for him last year, and what started as a business relationship turned into an opportunity to learn some valuable life lessons. Alan's knowledge and expertise in security and personal protection are second to none, but what impressed me most was his insight into people, self-awareness, and the importance of being mindful of the world around us. Through our conversations, he challenged me to think differently, be more aware, and look at situations from perspectives I might not have considered before. It's not often you meet someone who can leave that kind of lasting impression through simple conversations. I have tremendous respect for Alan, not only for what he knows, but for his willingness to share that knowledge with others. He's truly one of a kind, and I'm grateful our paths crossed!

Alan is a wealth of knowledge across a wide range of training areas. I’ve been in many Keysi instructor camps with him since 2021, and have also had the privilege sampling one of his C-Tac sessions. He always has a great attitude and works hard to make sure everyone has a good experience and gets access to what they need for improvement. Super helpful and available for those of us training under him. Highly recommend.

As part of my Asian culture I started learning martial arts at an early age. Over the many years I've had the good fortune of being taught by many great teachers in multiple martial arts. I've had the honor of being taught by Sifu Alan Baker for over 10 yrs. He's incredible! His skill set, knowledge & ability to teach you throughout your development as a martial artist is on the highest level. He's a true warrior-sage in all aspects of life. I continue to benefit from his wisdom in my journey through life. I have the utmost respect for Sifu Alan Baker.

I have known Sifu Alan Baker for several years and I have always been impressed with his knowledge, discipline, and dedication to his students and clients. He possesses a vast knowledge from his many years of study of multiple martial arts as well as multiple weapons including traditional martial arts weapons as well as modern knives and firearms. He is also a successful professional bodyguard and teacher of Executive Protection, and his has created courses for civilians and others. Due to his focus and commitment to all endeavors related to his passion and teaching, it is no wonder that he is also a successful businessman in his various areas that are of great benefit to his students and attendees across the U.S. What is also refreshing is that he brings quiet confidence tempered by humility and openness to entertain questions and curiosity shown by his students and others. I also have to say that I appreciate the fact that he motivates me to continually question and progress forward in the martial arts, self-defense related issues, and life in general. I have deep respect for Sifu Alan Baker and I am better for having met him.

Sifu Baker is an exceptional mentor and leader in the martial arts community. His extensive knowledge and ability to explain even the most complex techniques with patience and clarity sets him apart. He creates an environment where every student, regardless of skill level, feels supported and encouraged to grow. Whether it’s breaking down intricate moves or offering tailored advice, Sifu has a rare talent for making the art of jiu-jitsu approachable and rewarding. I’m incredibly grateful for his guidance and highly recommend the Atlanta Martial Arts Center to anyone looking to begin their martial arts journey.

I’ve had the honor of having worked with Sifu Alan Baker in several capacities for roughly the past 10 years; training and learning Martial Arts directly from him, serving along side of him on two international Martial Arts organizational boards and having him personally advise me in business and personal development. During that time, he has boiled down and expanded on many of the life enhancing perspectives that I have learned through martial arts, military training, and life experience. I haven’t met a more diversely knowledgeable martial artist across several disciplines in my entire 40 years of martial arts and military training that is more professionally dedicated to studying, learning, employing and sharing his Martial Arts proficiency. I have witnessed him coaching others through his perspective as a positive source that shares the knowledge of battle without the life-threatening consequences of attending the warrior’s alma mater of combat. Sifu Baker’s extraction of the lessons of a warrior’s quest through his own unique journey provides a map through the hazardous minefield of true warrior education. True wisdom has the insight to learn from others, especially in an arena where mistakes can be deadly. Learning form him allows individuals to enjoy the reward with far less risk. An old soldier’s purpose is to teach young soldiers how to become successful OLD soldiers. The lessons Alan shares on and off the mat are part of a study guide to that end. – MSG (Retired) Randy McElwee, US ARMY SPECIAL FORCES

Sifu Alan Baker is a wonderful instructor, I don't care if you are taking martial arts classes from him at his school or doing training in defensive tactics at a law enforcement or other training facility; Alan is simply the best around. I have attended several of his sessions over the years, both public and private, and the depth of his knowledge is unparalleled! In my training in all things, I am a firm believer in trying to learn from those who are as close to the source as possible, and you can not go wrong with Alan. If you want more information, check out his website for a list of more accomplishments and so many excellent training partners!

He is an amazing communicator and flexes to whomever he's teaching, and breaks down information to make it understandable to all levels.

I also recommend his books, which are filled with life changing information and insights.

Besides being an extraordinary martial artist with black belts and mastery in numerous different disciplines, Alan is a kind and humble individual. He is an accomplished author with several books, and he has a in-depth understanding of multiple past time skills such as repelling and diving. As the creator of EPI's Protection Response Tactics (PRT), he has produced the only defensive tactics for executive protection (DT4EP) system bar none. There is no other system like it. He is the ultimate defensive tactics professor!

Working with Sifu Alan Baker is for the business that is ready to expand on every level. Sifu has an ability to see into the business in a way that not many can and uses that gift to guide the business on the best course of action for the desired outcome. He uses a life 360 approach when coaching his clients, therefore nothing is left untouched. Sifu breaks his teachings down in easily digestible and implementable steps. He is always there when his clients need him and makes himself available whenever anything comes up. He is genuine and truly cares about his clients, their companies as well as their happiness. I highly recommend working with Sifu for any kind of training and business/personal coaching you desire- you will not be disappointed!

Alan is a unique coach not just having an extensive background in many martial arts and training with so many amazing martial artists; but, he provides coaching and speaking in addition to teaching many martial arts. Additionally, he has his own approach to teaching just self-defense or reality based self-defense. This separates his teachings from the ring and the street allowing people to learn how to defend themselves!
