Jaz Davis- Lead Instructor / Creative Director

   

Jaz is a man of God whose life's journey has been dedicated to the positive development of his community. 


His purpose crystallized during his service in the USAF as a 43rd Operations Group LAN Administrator. As a network administrator, Jaz developed a unique instructor style crucial to the workgroup manager training program, saving the Airforce $50,000 in training costs while enhancing support for 43OG personnel.


His technical expertise played a pivotal role in designing and installing the cutting-edge flight planning system for the 43rd Airlift Wing, earning him a place as the youngest member of the Pope Y2k Crisis Action Team. This early background as an instructor laid the foundation for his Modern Gladiator Training Program.


Being a first hand witness to the events of 9/11 fueled Jaz's sense of urgency to make a positive impact. He relocated his family to Hawaii, where he worked as a Mortician's Apprentice specializing in Restorative Arts. As part of his duties, he was responsible for recovery & transport of American POW remains. These experiences brought him face to face with the fragility of life, further intensifying his commitment to protecting and teaching others to do the same.


Since 2015, Jaz has been a dedicated firearms instructor, holding multiple certifications, including First Responders Carry Instructor (TX), Private Security Level 4 Executive Protection, Private Security Level 3 Instructor, NRA Chief Range Safety Officer, NRA Basic Pistol, NRA CCW, NRA Refuse to be a Victim, License To Carry Instructor (TX), and CPR/First Aid/AED.


Jaz lives a defender lifestyle, dedicating every available moment to perfecting his craft. His Modern Gladiator Training Program reflects not only his technical prowess but also his unwavering dedication to the safety and well-being of others.
