Elite Training Center (formally LOTAR Self Defense) is located in Redondo Beach, CA. We are a martial arts school focusing on self-defense and fitness. Our students include male and female, adult and youth, those with no prior self-defense experience and those experienced in martial arts. Teaching confidence while respecting others, our school is founded on the four principals of Respect, Honor, Discipline, and Strength. Techniques include LOTAR® and Krav Maga (self-defense independent of strength or size), Muay Thai kickboxing, Adult Mixed Martial Arts (MMA) Youth MMA emphasizing our founding principles, and Kali/Silat/Eskrima (Filipino hand & stick fighting). Elite Training Center instructors are experienced in both the teaching and the application of defense techniques in actual street or combat situations. 

Leadership Through Experience, Patience and Humor:
Chief Instructor Brian Rauchbach has 16 years of operational experience. While operating in many international theaters, Mr. Rauchbach worked with and was trained by many of the top operators from the most elite counter-terrorism units in the world. While maintaining the LOTAR, Krav Maga, Kickboxing, and Mixed Martial Arts systems as its foundation, Mr. Rauchbach has also integrated the many different styles of Close Quarter Combat that he utilized during this time, adding to the effectiveness of the system.

Everyone Needs Self Defense
Personal self-defense is not about ending up in a fight. It's about having the training and confidence to avoid potentially dangerous situations while being able to take charge and escape danger if the need ever arises. These skills provide peace and confidence to our students along with an excellent fitness workout. 

The newest student is treated with respect and kindness by everyone, from other novices to black belts. This “family” atmosphere makes training, while challenging, both comfortable and fun.

Please stop in—we look forward to meeting you in person!
