Protecting Others

Jim Wagner adds a new perspective to his book series on reality-based personal protection with Protecting Others: Self-Defense Strategies and Tactics for Third-Party Protection. Drawing on his experience in martial arts, police, military and special-operations training, Wagner explains how to protect the people you love the most when it matters most.


Protecting Others includes:

• knife-survival tactics

• how to effectively take down hostile subjects

• realistic scenario training in buildings, vehicles and on the street

• unarmed fighting methods that are used by real-life special-operations teams

• detailed photo sequences with straightforward captions of critical events—terrorist shootings, bank robberies and much more!


Protecting Others is an interactive teaching document for self-defense instructors and teachers everywhere.


Jim Wagner draws on more than three decades of experience in martial arts, police, military and special operations. Many elite forces, including the Israeli Special Forces, FBI SWAT and Germany’s GSG9 unit, use his methods. Wagner is the author of two books: Reality-Based Personal Protection and Defensive Tactics for Special Operations.
