FAST Defense = Powerful New Choices

MISSION STATEMENT
T
o Educate and Empower people of all ages with New Choices to live Vital, Successful, and Happy lives!


FAST Defense represents the very latest technology available to train and empower people of all ages to defend themselves and take full control of their lives!

   Good Self-Defense must cover the entire spectrum of Self-Defense for the students to have the skills needed to deal with life's many challenges. FAST Defense focuses first on the inevitability and effects of the adrenaline rush, and then uses simple and proven techniques while in the adrenal state to ward off attackers. FAST Defense starts with verbal skills to stop an attack before it becomes violent, and works up to physical skills at the appropriate level should the attack escalate. Most graduates of FAST Defense never have to use their physical skills because the Verbal Defense tactics they learn work so well to de-escalate or back off most attacks. And for those who have to use physical force, the FAST Defense techniques have proven themselves time and time again as the most effective self-defense available!

   FAST Defense is the latest technology in an evolution of over 30 years of trial and error to test and determine what really works and what does not in real life situations! Many people claim to teach Adrenal Stress Response Training but very few actually understand how this powerful technology works. FAST Defense uses the latest scientific techniques available to teach people very quickly how to work with the natural survival mechanisms of fear and adrenaline, and make them their greatest ally should they ever need it.

   The Concept is simple! Just as someone can be traumatized and conditioned to freeze for years or decades after just one bad experience, we can engineer a positive experience in a very short time, which provides conditioning to control and even use the fear and adrenaline rush that inevitably occurs in any intense situation. We consistently do this in just hours for people of all types with 100% success!

   Teaching this simple Concept is not simple! Teaching this system requires highly trained teams of male and female instructors to ensure maximum effectiveness and safety. Each Team undergoes intensive training to be certified as FAST Defense Instructors. The end result: No-one teaches this methodology better than FAST Defense!

FAST Defense is the brainstorm of Bill Kipp, one of the world's leading experts on adrenal stress scenario based self-defense. Bill was personally trained by Matt Thomas, the founder of the original Model Mugging program and the true father of modern day adrenal stress response training.  

With over 16 years of teaching this highly specialized training, Mr. Kipp has logged well over 30,000 live adrenal stress scenarios against students ranging from Martial Arts Experts and professional fighters, to children, teens, moms, and dads with no previous training. This makes him arguably the most experienced man in the world in padded assailant training! Mr. Kipp served in the elite 3rd Marine Recon Teams specializing in Counter Terrorism and testing security at top-secret military installations. While traveling world wide as a Recon Team Leader, he cross-trained in clandestine operations with Korean, Thai, New Zealand, and other elite International Special Forces units. With over 31 years in the Martial Arts, Mr. Kipp lived in Asia where he supported his martial arts training by working as a movie stuntman, bouncer, and bodyguard.

   Called "The Fear Doctor" by his peers, he is the founder of Model Mugging of Colorado, FAST Defense, (an instructor-training program in padded assailant adrenal stress response training), and FAST Solutions, a highly innovative Corporate Conflict Resolution program. His unique talents and methodologies have drawn corporations such as Lucent Technology, Lockheed Martin, MCI, and more, to contract him to teach self-defense, team building, and conflict resolution trainings for management and employees. Mr. Kipp has created Adult and Children's self-defense courses for NAPMA, (National Association of Professional Martial Artists) and for RMCAT, (Rocky Mountain Combat Applications Training), where he is also the chief instructor.  

   Bill has graced multiple TV and radio shows and Magazines and has authored 3 videos: The ABC's of Self Defense, FAST Solutions for Life, and "The Missing Link - Self Protection Through Awareness, Avoidance, and De-Escalation." He currently travels worldwide training Instructors in all levels of Basic and Advanced Adrenal Stress Response seminars. He is one of 37 warriors from across the land who's collective experience and wisdom comprise the book: Warriors, On Living with Courage, Discipline, and Honor, written by Loren Christensen: http://www.lwcbooks.com
