Andrew J. Hall

Andrew’s many years of martial arts training and teaching experience has led him to become one of only a handful of Certified Executive Instructors who have been fortunate enough to study under Sifu Paul Vunak of Progressive Fighting Systems. This intensive training has prepared Andrew to be able to bring the dynamics of PFS to anyone who wants to be empowered and to develop skills to improve their personal safety.

Andrew’s involvement in the martial arts began in 1980. He has gone on to earn Black Belts in several disciplines and has been a primary Black Belt instructor for the Police Activity League Martial Arts Program in Nassau County, New York. Andrew’s diverse background in the arts has allowed him to bring a multi-dimensional approach to teaching and training his students.

During the course of his Martial Arts career, Andrew was able to develop his skills and expand his expertise even further through an extensive training program in China. This training has brought even greater diversity to Andrew’s teaching curriculum and has resulted in his students’ participation at elite levels of Martial Arts competition.

In addition to appearances on local news programs, Andrew has taught numerous training seminars/programs in Personal Protection to various community groups with students of all abilities, ages, and occupations. On a larger scale, Andrew’s position as an Anti-Terrorism consultant made use of his knowledge and skills in self-protection and safety. Airline, military, and law enforcement personnel sought his expertise as terrorist activity increased worldwide.

Upon completion of an intensive course of study, Andrew has acquired certification to teach Paul Vunak’s System of Rapid Assault Tactics (R.A.T.) to military and law enforcement personnel. This system can be adapted based on individual or group needs, and includes self-protection techniques and real-life skills to protect yourself, your family, and those around you.
