On October 31st, after 29 years of service, I was laid off due to corporate cost-cutting measures. While this has temporarily delayed the launch of the Rapid Assault Tactics (RAT) Synthesis Personal Combat and Fitness Class, it has also ignited a powerful transformation within me.
A new birth always requires the passing of the old. This moment is not an end—it’s the beginning of something extraordinary. Over the years, I have honed my craft, deepened my knowledge, and now stand ready to offer more than ever before.
RAT Synthesis is the culmination of decades of mastery, combining the fluid philosophy of Jeet Kune Do, the profound teachings of the Gung Fu Genius Grandmaster Denis Decker, and the science of street kickboxing. This streamlined system is not just a form of personal combat; it is a path to empowerment, fitness, and the invincibility of spirit. With only 2.5 sessions a week, I maintain peak fitness and combat readiness, and soon, I will share this transformative power with the world.
Mark my words: The RAT Synthesis School of Life will rise in Englishtown, NJ. A new source of income is on the horizon, and when the doors open, it will be the beginning of a revolution in personal mastery.
In the meantime, I encourage you to begin your journey of self-learning. Visit my website, explore the books, and prepare for what’s to come.
Together, we will forge strength, wisdom, and resilience.
All the best,
Sifu Matt Russo
RAT Synthesis
