Who We Are

At (CATA – Canadian Armour Tactical Academy), we are more than just a training institution — we are a movement built on discipline, excellence, and the relentless pursuit of mastery. Every trainee who walks through our doors joins a legacy of high-performance individuals shaped by purpose, precision, and professional integrity.

Founder's Message

As the founder of Canadian Armour Tactical Academy (CATA), I bring years of real-world experience in security, executive protection, and tactical operations. My mission is to raise the standards of private security and tactical training in Canada and internationally, by providing elite-level education tailored for military personnel, law enforcement officers, and corporate security professionals.
Having worked closely with law enforcement and VIP protection teams, I’ve seen firsthand the importance of discipline, adaptability, and professionalism in high-risk environments. That’s why CATA was created – to offer practical, scenario-based training that prepares students not just to meet industry expectations, but to exceed them.
At CATA, we believe in training with purpose. Every course we offer is built on operational reality, not theory. Whether you’re a new recruit or an active member, you’ll gain skills that make a difference when it matters most.
I invite you to train with us – and become part of a new standard in tactical excellence.
