He is a former officer with British Special Operations Forces, with the Parachute Regiment which is Britain’s elite quick reaction force and which augments the UK Special Forces Support Group (SFSG). Max served on six operational deployments, including to Afghanistan immediately post-9/11, and also a tour training and selecting recruits for the Regiment. Max passed both Parachute Regiment and UK Special Forces Aptitude Selection during his career. Max then spent five years serving as a paramilitary contractor in both Iraq and Afghanistan. This included working on contract for the US Government in Iraq, a year of which was based out of Fallujah, the rest variously based out of Baghdad and country-wide, and also two years working for the British Government in Helmand Province, Afghanistan. These roles were operational security / paramilitary roles that included exposure to multiple different training methods and operational schools of thought, as well as both high profile and low profile mobile operations across Iraq and Afghanistan. After settling in the United States, Max worked as the global security advisor for one of the largest hotel chains in the world. He also joined the U.S. Army Reserves. Max now operates Max Velocity Tactical full time, in line with his mission to “keep good folks alive.”

Max Velocity Tactical classes specialize in the teaching of combat proven, adapted, legitimate light infantry tactics, techniques and procedures. Training is informed by a background and experience in SOF / elite forces, and additionally by close protection / paramilitary contracting work. These classes are the real deal, and the tactics, techniques and procedures are familiar to any graduate of Ranger School or SFQC. Tactical classes are not simply a regurgitation of basic military manuals or training, but are adapted to the armed citizen, based on real world operational experience in hostile / combat environments. These classes are both serious, but attainable through a designed training progression brought by the many years operational and training experience present in the MVT cadre.

One response to “Who is Max Velocity, and what is Max Velocity Training?”

  1. Good add. That pretty much covers it. I would say that I’ve trained with a few people and you’re really missing out if you don’t get training with Max. He brings a unique perspective to the table that you won’t find anywhere else.

    My buddy and I were discussing this the other day. Comparing the differences between the US and British armies. My one comment was that the British forces are so much smaller, therefore their overall quality control is much better. The average British Line Regiment is superior to it’s Ami counterpart. The Yanks have more money to lavish on fire support and technology, but the Brits have better discipline in the ranks. It’s just a simple as that.

    Now Max isn’t going to say that, being a gentleman and a scholar, but it’s true. Former British soldiers are in high demand around the world to teach their skills to the locals. We have a rare gem here and should take MAXimum advantage of it.
