About the Author
Tom LeBrun has spent his lifetime training, both in the physical and academic arenas, to be the best he can be in the world of Executive Protection. Unlike many martial artists and protectors, who live in a world of theory and controlled situations, Tom LeBrun functions in a very real world, often in the worlds most dangerous of cities such as Mexico City, Johannesburg, and Rio de Janeiro. One failure in judgment could cause dire consequences for him and those he protects. Having the discipline to consistently train in the world's most effective arts for self-defense for over 30 years, Tom LeBrun has created what many consider an extremely efficient yet realistic system of self-defense based on real-world experiences its name, LeBrun's American Combatives. In today's weapon-based society, if an attack occurs, it is highly likely that an unarmed individual might face an armed attacker. To say that this is a recipe for a potentially dangerous situation is a serious understatement. Tom LeBrun, in his career as a Professional Protection Specialist, has often faced attackers who have used improvised weapons, star-stalkers, and obsessed mobs and has walked away intact.
