SPEARtips: Close Quarter Tactics with Tony Blauer
with Tony Blauer

Tony Blauer writes columns intended to directly help -- not just the trainer -- but more importantly, the cop in the street, those officers walking the beats. Tony is one of the world's leading trainers and has developed many innovative drills, strategies and tactics that help keep officers safer, the world over.

Tony's company, Blauer Tactical Confrontation Management System, regularly trains DT instructors in his SPEAR SYSTEM and Officer Survival School. Aside from his responsibilities to LEO's the world over, his company has consulted for elite elements within the federal government like U.S. Navy SEALs, U.S. Army Special Forces, U.S. Air Force, Federal Air Marshals, the U.S. Coast Guard, D.O.E., U.S. Marshals, and the FBI. He has also consulted for specialty organizations like the ASLET, ITOA, TTPOA, NIPAS, the Gulf Coast Violent Offenders Task Force and the National Security Committee, and many more.

We're excited to offer Tony's column to our readers and members. Just another reason why PoliceOne is always on the cutting edge for the Law Enforcement community.

Message from Tony:
Friends, I would like this column to be as interactive as possible, please email me with request, questions, concerns (asktony@blauertactical.com) and I will work them into articles or in some case pure Q&A.

Tony in Action:

As a consultant, I'm on the road 250 days a year and I predominantly work with trainers, sharing behaviorally based research on topics as diverse as fear management, cultivating 'Presence', Tactical De-Escalation, counter-ambush principle and of course our S.P.E.A.R. System. For more on my system, please visit my website at BlauerTactical.com.
