Course Description

The Military Secrets Most Men Will Never Know About Defending Themselves, Their Family, And Their Freedom:

If I offered to personally show you exactly how to stop violent attackers DEAD in their tracks...

Without needing to be fast, strong, or in good physical shape…

Without long, sweat-drenched hours of classes…

Without a gun…

Even if you have no previous fighting experience what-so-ever…

Would you be interested?

My name is Captain Chris Pizzo.

And even with a lifetime of martial arts and military training experience, my wife and I were almost stabbed to death when dragged out of our car and attacked mercilessly by a street gang.

Afterwards I spent every penny I had traveling the world studying at the feet of martial arts masters, exploring dozens of self defense methods, and testing hundreds of weapons…

All searching for the true “answer” to self defense.

I finally discovered that in World War II, a little known, easy to use, easy to remember, and unbeatable method of personal protection was developed called "Close Combat Training".

Stripping away all the ceremony and complex movements of traditional martial arts and self defense, Close Combat Training was first proven by British Commandos in the 1920's to retake the streets of criminally-controlled Shanghai.

It was later used, with a perfect service record, to battle the greatest threat the world has ever seen, the fanatically evil Nazi regime.

What makes Close Combat Training so effective is its principle use of gross-motor (large muscle-group) movements to deliver "one-strike" knockouts, bone-breaks, and barehanded weapon disarms against any number of attackers.

But even better…

Documented records show that this can all be achieved by anyone regardless of your age, strength, or current physical abilities.

For the past 20 years I’ve dedicated my life to sharing this powerful method with others who believe in our individual right to protect our lives, our liberty, and our personal property from all those looking to take it.

Now it's your turn to let everyone know that YOU are no longer afraid of those actively working to destroy what you know and love.

See you inside!

Fear No Man,

Captain Chris Pizzo
World Leader In Self Defense

Instructor Details

Chris Pizzo

After surviving an extremely aggressive strain of cancer, life-long martial artist and award winning educator Chris Pizzo dedicated his life to improving the health, abilities, and martial skills of those that might not have expert level instruction at their fingertips.

Rising to international fame first as the outspoken and controversial “Lieutenant X” followed shortly thereafter by the widely popular and publicized (ABC, FOX, NBC, etc.) self-defense guru “Captain Chris”. Pizzo returned to his martial roots in 2013 and gave up life in the limelight to focus on teaching judo and Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu to his private clients, team mates, and 4 young sons as well as helping other serious martial artists achieve the income and impact they seek.

Alongside of his military combative expertise, Chris is a 3rd degree Black Belt in Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu under Master Carlos Gracie, Jr., Master Joe Moreira, Grandmaster Francisco Mansor, and Professors Juliano Prado and Adriano Nasal. He can be found training and teaching with Orange County Brazilian Top Team.

Meshing the traditional, the extreme, and the cutting-edge of martial arts education, marketing, and business, Professor Chris brings his extensive knowledge, his unique sense of humor and teaching style, and his legacy as the best selling self-defense instructor in history to truly serve and transform an industry.

The course is a joke; I don't know how it received very positive feedback, which deceived me. The course goes on like this: an attacker comes to you (of course, with slow-motion movements) and you tiger punch, dragon kick, headbutt, and hadouken the light out of the attacker, and you win K.O.

I didn't know a thing about CQC before this and just after watching for 20 minutes I know so much!

By Piers Brennand-Francis on 11/8/2020

Seems this guy doesn't have the qualifications he claims to meaning anything we learn from him could just be worthless: https://www.myselfdefensetraining.com/who-is-captain-chris-pizzo/

By Melisha Keamo on 11/1/2020

I came into this course thinking I could learn something relating to the armed forces, especially for self-defense, and Im glad I took this course. While I might not know when I might need to use the techniques here, at least Ive been aware and am prepared for in case of emergencies since people might do something crazy just because they dont like you.

By Isidoro Gaytan III on 10/25/2020

The explanation is very helpful and effective to protect yourself.

By Dustin K. Johnson on 10/14/2020

I would like at least a 2 min timer on the screen to actually get up and practice

By Chris Roden on 9/25/2020

So far, the pace is just what I need to absorb these skills.
(I would like to see some high impact and normal speed chops, claws, etc. on a BOB dummy.)

By Sanjeev D on 9/18/2020

Amazing course.

By Adarius Turner on 9/9/2020

This course is helping me alot, Thank you worth the price

By Michael Candeloro on 9/9/2020

The application is sloppy, I get the impression he promoting wild hitting.

By Becky Oberg on 9/9/2020

I have studied three martial arts--yoseikan budo aikido, shotokan karate and taekwondo, but this teaches techniques more geared toward the very real world of street fighting. The important thing is to stop the fight, not throw a correct block or strike. I feel much more confident in my ability to defend myself. The only drawback is I don't have anyone to practice with.
