Introduction
Hi, I'm Joe Hubbard and welcome to my website. I am the Chief Instructor for Hock Hochheim's Scientific Fighting Congress International in the UK and the founder of Functional Force Options, which is the culmination of all the tactics I have learned, studied, functionalized and experienced for more than two decades; not limited to my martial arts background alone, but augmented with my experience as a high risk security professional for the U.S. Government. My mission is to spread the tentacles of W. Hock Hochheim's teachings throughout the world, inspire, but not confine and share all of this life saving information with you; I want to make a contract with you. It's all about your personal protection.
Functional Force Options is committed to being a vanguard in the development and advancement of personal protection training courses specifically designed for the professional security industry, close protection operators, law enforcement agencies, military units, martial artists and all civilians of good character. Whether you face the threat of immediate danger due to professional or personal circumstances, our courses and methodologies of instruction will enable you to overcome your fear of sudden violence and condition you to develop the most pervasive survival skill-sets for dominating in real-world combative engagements.
The seamless integration of sound tactics and situational stratagem has made up the commonalities of all the great combative systems and personal protection programs throughout history. Our mission is to bridge the gap between all of these immutable, generic and re-occurring combative principles that transcend all system, style, nationality and/or uniform. It is this nexus that our company prides itself on in the delivery, streamlining, refining, updating, filtering and fundamentally organizing the very best of these tactics into a logical progression that is the foundation of our training programs; ultimately leading to the most effective and accelerated form of learning for our clients' needs.
Respecting diversity, Functional Force Options welcomes all people of good character from a broad range of backgrounds and will take into consideration all previous experience with martial systems and defensive tactics training programs. With a shared commitment through high quality training, special contracts are forged with one another by the virtue of hard work- whether you are in the gym, in the classroom or on the shooting range. Valuing tradition, yet constantly striving for modernization, our structured programs will provide you with clear aims, objectives and consistent encouragement; establishing a framework for self-discovery and personal growth whilst providing you with the tactical, mental and physical tools to survive sudden violence above all other costs.
