What is this and why is it necessary? Basically, “What are you going to do for me?” Does this sound familiar? This program is designed for anyone looking to become the most fit version of yourself. I am a NESTA certified MMA strength and conditioning coach, as well as a NESTA certified Muay Thai/Kickboxing Fitness coach. I have over two decades in the fitness world and take this program very seriously. It’s important to note, our Colorado tactical fitness classes and online program will have you looking sexy as hell, so be ready to fend off passerby’s long-lasting looks of passion. If you’re wanting a career as a bodybuilder, this is NOT for you. This is a tactical fitness program and is heavily based on HIIT, boxing, kickboxing, sprints, core movements, and functional/agility-type workouts. However, there are absolutely going to be workouts based on upper body, lower body, and everything in between, in order to get you size and strength for whatever challenges you face in your day-to-day. You owe it to your loved ones, but most importantly, you owe it to YOU to maintain your most excellent, peak physical fitness. #welcometothefamily

This program is not going to get you to a black belt level in any martial art. What it is going to do for you, is teach you proven techniques pulled from boxing, kickboxing, Muay Thai (the art of eight limbs), some jiu jitsu based on Law Enforcement Ground Grappling tactics (LEGGS), and Krav Maga (Israeli Self-Defense). While serving in the military and then in law enforcement for a total of two decades, I have learned a thing or two regarding these. This course would be taught in either a one-on-one setting or in small group classes. It can certainly be tailored to whoever is wanting the training. The crime wave that has stricken this country can have people on edge. I want to provide a little bit of comfort knowing the student will leave this class, having the ability to not only fend off an attacker, but also to defend themselves long enough to allow further assistance to come your way such as law enforcement, or other first responders. #welcometothefamily

I want to say this is arguably my favorite program from the feedback I have received. This class can either be continuing education for the student, a one-time class for the solo student, or a group. In serving in the United States Coast Guard as a Boarding Team Member and being part of the second largest drug bust in the service’s history while assigned to the USCGC MIDGETT, I was privileged to attend numerous CQB (Close Quarter Battlement) type training. This class teaches many of the techniques learned along the way and to expand on that, as the title of the program states, it is for the EVERYDAY TACTICIAN. When you’re out and about with your family or loved ones, you more than likely don’t have a tac vest, helmet, and an AR15, in the rear of your car. Not to worry, this class is going to provide numerous tools that will assist you in overcoming a threat and in turn surviving a possible armed confrontation. I do not take this class lightly and again, with the crime wave sweeping the nation, I want to instill confidence and a true “toolbox” per se with which the student can pull from if need be. #welcometothefamily

So, this little facet of Bearded Monkey Tactical was the first piece of the pie if you will. I have had a running self-improvement podcast that is available for listening on Spotify, Apple Podcasts, or wherever you may enjoy your listening material. I also stream portions of the podcast on Youtube. The ‘Bearded Monkey Podcast’ episodes vary in length, but they’re typically posted once a week for the full-length episodes, which are around 60 minutes. I also post a 5-minute preview episode of what the upcoming full-length episode is going to be covering. I have a plethora of guests from all walks of life. I love to allow people to tell their stories in their words. If you’re a Debbie Downer, this ain’t for ya! Period. We often-times have episodes where I read book excerpts for learning purposes and tell stories of amazing people that existed before me, in order to pass the stories to others to let their legacy live on. As I mentioned, I do have guests on the show. If you’re interested in being considered for the Bearded Monkey Podcast as a guest, please reach out to me at beardedmonkeytactical@gmail.com I welcome anyone to hit us up and if it’s a fit for both of us, I am more than happy to allow you to tell your story in your words. Trust me, this can be fun. We can eat, drink, have pushup competitions, whatever we want to do. All while being recorded! Also, inquire about ‘Project Restoration’, sponsored by Bearded Monkey Tactical #welcometothefamily

What is this and why would I want to buy your stuff? Have you seen the Bearded Monkey logo? I mean seriously, why would you NOT want to rep that shit? In all seriousness, Bearded Monkey Tactical has several t-shirt designs to choose from, a hoodie design, a snap-back hat, and some patches with “Malcolm The Monkey’s” face, emblazoned with the words, ‘Bearded Monkey’. These items range in price, but check this out. You can “at-me” if you’d like! If you sign up for ANY of the courses mentioned and SHOW UP to the class, you get a shirt of your choice for FREE. That’s right, what better way to be welcomed to the Bearded Monkey Family than to get the shirt and then rep your FAMILY? All we ask is for a tag on your socials. That’s it. So, show up to a class, pick your shirt, and tag us on the socials! This way you can truly say, I came, I saw and I left with the T-shirt. #welcometothefamily

I’ll keep this very simple. We want to breed excellence at Bearded Monkey Tactical. I have struggles and am human just like anyone else. What I am blessed to be able to do, is to grow and learn from the pain I have had to endure in life. We go through pain, NOT SUFFERING when we have the ability to fight our way out of a challenging period. Pain is weakness leaving the body and as they say in Basic Training, “Why is pain good? Because it lets you know you’re alive.” And if you’re alive and bleeding, you’ve still got some fight left in you. I garner strength from those that have a passion for helping others like I do. I can tailor speaking engagements to whoever is requesting an event booking. My rates vary, but typically what to expect for a one-day session, no matter the length of time necessary for the day, it starts at $2185.00, plus travel and hotel room. If you’re within the great State of Colorado (my home state), we can certainly discuss options here. During a full-day speaking event, there is going to be some laughter, some tears, and almost certainly some emotions everywhere in between. We will grow together and I am very engaging with the audience. At the end of a full day (6-8 hours), those that wish to partake, are going to EARN THEIR COLORS. This I keep close to the vest, but has been wildly popular. If you choose to be part of earning your colors. you’ll walk away with a bad little Bearded Monkey Tactical challenge coin. Please do not hesitate to reach out if you have any questions. beardedmonkeytactical@gmail.com and one last thing: #welcometothefamily
