Sometimes the best self-defense technique is just VIOLENCE OF ACTION. 😂

No fancy techniques.
No 27-step disarm.
No mystical pressure points.
No black-belt choreography.

Just Ryan double-blasting me from behind and proceeding to beat me until the “bad guy” was no longer a threat. 🤣

There’s absolutely a place for traditional martial arts.

But there’s also a VERY important place for reality-based training built around simple, aggressive principles that actually hold up under pressure.

That’s what Active Killer Defense® training with Fit to Fight® brought to our community this weekend.

Simple. Aggressive. Practical. REAL.

And apparently… pretty effective. 😂👊🏻

PHOTO DUMP‼️

What an awesome day of training, learning, and coming together as a community.

A huge THANK YOU to Ryan Hoover and Amber Staklinski Hoover of Fit to Fight Republic for making the trip to South Central Kentucky and sharing their knowledge, experience, and Active Killer Defense® training with our community.

There’s a reason we have so much respect for Ryan, Amber, and the entire Fit to Fight team. What they teach isn’t about fear—it’s about preparation, awareness, confidence, and giving everyday people real skills for extraordinary circumstances.

Skills we sincerely hope NO ONE in that room ever has to use.

But when life gets real, being prepared and knowledgeable is always better than the alternative.

We also want to thank EVERYONE who showed up and put in work on the mats. 1st Responders, community members, families, professionals, and people from different walks of life came together with one common goal:

To become better prepared, and more capable of protecting themselves and the people around them.

That is exactly what we want G2R Project to continue bringing to South Central Kentucky.

Ryan, Amber, and the entire Fit to Fight Republic team — THANK YOU‼️
We appreciate your friendship, your professionalism, and what you are doing to make communities better prepared.

And to everyone who walked through the doors and trained with us at this awesome event…

Thank you for showing up. Thank you for putting in the work. And thank you for helping us build something worthwhile right here at home.

DEDICATION DOESN’T HAVE AN AGE LIMIT. 👊🏻

We want to take a moment and give some well-deserved recognition to Mr. Dennis Womack

Dennis & Jeff/Rob met nearly 20 years ago—and after all those years, he is still showing up, still training, and still putting in the work.

He may have a few more years of experience under his belt than some of the others on the mats, but that’s exactly what makes his dedication so impressive. He still shows up ready to learn, willing to be challenged, and determined to keep pushing himself and growing through training.

And THAT deserves respect.

It’s easy to be motivated for a few weeks or a few months. It’s something entirely different to dedicate years of your life to becoming more capable, more prepared, and continuing to challenge yourself.

Mr. Dennis is living proof that training isn’t just for the young, the athletic, or the naturally gifted.

It’s for the people willing to keep showing up.

Dennis, thank you for nearly two decades of trust, friendship, hard work, and dedication to what we do. You’ve earned the respect of everyone at G2R Project, and we’re proud to have you on the mats with us.

Nearly 20 years later since Dennis and Jeff’s little boxing match in a small garage and sessions in a training basement… and still going strong.

That’s what dedication looks like!!
