The Mission

Warriors.
Protectors.
Certified.

The Onna Bugeisha program at Phalanx is not a modified version of the men's curriculum. It is a purpose-built track that leverages the unique strengths women bring to executive protection — precision, adaptability, social intelligence, and access to environments where male agents cannot operate effectively.

Graduates earn Georgia state-recognized EP certification and join a growing network of elite female operatives working across the country and internationally — including the Trinidad 2027 deployment.
