The Coach Who Builds Bodyguards of the Mind
Brent Sankey — MTT Lead Instructor & Global Training Coordinator, Blauer Tactical
Brent Sankey is a member of the SPEAR System's Mobile Training Team (MTT) and the owner of a SPEAR-affiliated boxing gym, where he runs Be Your Own Bodyguard® (BYOB) alongside his boxing programs. With over three decades in boxing as a coach, mentor, and gym owner, he has helped hundreds of people — from young athletes to professionals — develop resilience, confidence, and real-world readiness through disciplined training. As Head Coach of Redland City Boxing, he builds programs that strengthen both physical capability and mental readiness.
His integration into SPEAR began in the Garage Gym as a dedicated member and has evolved over nearly six years into both operational leadership and field application. As Blauer Tactical's Global Training Coordinator, he supports operations across the SPEAR System® and SPEAR CARE® divisions, ensuring training delivery runs smoothly and consistently for agencies and organizations worldwide. He has delivered SPEAR CARE® and VerbalCraft training to health and human service agencies, including the Department of Children, Youth & Families (DCYF) and McNeil Island Correctional Complex in Washington State. Within the SPEAR Defense division, Coach B has recognized him as one of the standout MTT cadre, and many in the community met him at last year's Symposium.
Whether in the ring or in high-stakes professional environments, his approach is grounded in coaching people to stay calm, think clearly, and act decisively under pressure.
In parallel, he brings over 20 years of experience in project management, operations, and health, safety, and environmental compliance across industries including manufacturing, construction, marketing, defence, oil and gas, and mining. He has delivered projects for EPCs and end users, managed operational upgrades across greenfield and brownfield relocations, and overseen ISO management systems in quality, safety, and environment — including site audits, risk assessments, and continuous improvement for both businesses and contractors.
