And how to do it. Why INPAX is so effective. In their own words. Watch the Video “Life is not about what happens, it's about how you choose to respond...” Live with Confidence. INPAX means "in peace". The inner peace from being in control. That's why we are here: To empower as many people as possible with this essential ability to defend themselves and live with confidence. What does it mean to Live with Confidence? At INPAX, we believe it comes down to three important and interconnected ideas: Security is an essential human need. The great psychologist Abraham Maslow placed security second on his "hierarchy of human needs," immediately after the physiological needs of food, shelter and clothing. Like those bodily needs, it is essential to our survival, yet something we tend take for granted in this day and age-until we suddenly find ourselves without it, whether on a crowded city street or in a deserted parking garage. Your personal security can't be outsourced. Or, as we like to say at INPAX, it's great to have a lifeguard, but it's better to know how to swim. Because, when push comes to shove (as it all too often does), the only one you can truly rely on to save you is ... you. By equipping yourself with the skills to extricate yourself and your loved ones from a life-threatening situation, you gain the peace of mind that comes from self-mastery. Train the body, and the mind will follow. Though it may sound paradoxical, the physical training we offer does more than simply reinforce or complement our approach to personal security. It is what internalizes that knowledge. When self-protection becomes reflexive and instinctive at the level of muscle memory, a new self begins to emerge within the individual-a more aware, more engaged, more confident human being. This is the person INPAX can help you become confident!
