What is the Mastro Defence System (MDS)?
The Mastro Defence System (MDS) is a cutting-edge self-defense and combat methodology created by Fred Mastro, a world-renowned expert in personal protection and security. Drawing from his extensive experience in VIP protection, law enforcement, security operations, martial arts and biomechanics, MDS was developed to address the realities of modern violence and provide highly effective, no-nonsense solutions for personal safety.
With its emphasis on realism, efficiency, and adaptability, MDS has earned international recognition and is widely respected as one of the most effective self-defense systems available today.
