Lioness Tactics

Awaken Your Survival Instincts

Never the Aggressor. Always Vigilant. Always Ready.

Founded in 2014, Lioness Tactics is a female-owned company that has trained Law Enforcement, Veterans, Military, Security, and Corporate professionals worldwide in behavior-based and prevention.

  • To raise the standard of personal readiness through behavior-driven training that is practical, clear, and grounded in real-world experience.

  • The lioness is the perfect model for human survival. She studies patterns. Tracks intent. Moves with purpose. Conserves energy until action is required. She protects what is hers by understanding what she is walking into.

    Lioness Tactics is built on biological intelligence, the same survival principles that keep predators alive in nature and people alive in the real world. Threats do not begin with violence. They begin with behavior.

  • We don’t build off skills. We build off survival instincts.

    Every threat starts with behavior. Long before there is a weapon, a word, or a move, there is intent. That is where we begin. We teach biological intelligence to recognize the subtle cues, and to trust the instinct that warns you something is off.

    You’ll learn to read people, manage stress, make decisions under pressure, using techniquies built around instictive reactions making them easier to remember and perform under stress.

A Lioness doesn’t walk confidently. She walks prepared

Renee Stringer has more than 20 years of experience teaching self-defense and over a decade in executive and dignitary protection, covert operations, and corporate security. Her training background includes defensive tactics, firearms instruction, de-escalation, and behavior-based threat recognition.

She has trained civilians, law enforcement, military personnel, and security teams, and has led and supported security operations in both domestic and high-risk environments. Her approach is grounded in biological intelligence, how the human body reads danger, processes stress, and makes decisions under pressure.

This is the foundation behind Lioness Tactics.

Wow, this was genuinely cool. Thank you to International Security Journal (ISJ) for the feature. I love my job, and it meant a lot to be asked to share how I see Corporate Security evolving in 2026. Getting the chance to step back, think forward, an

Space + Opportunity = Control Violent encounters happen fast, usually within seconds and often closer than you ever imagined. When someone closes that distance, you lose more than space. You lose time, control, and options. That’s why creat

“911, what’s your emergency?” It is a phrase we have all heard on TV or in real life. But here is what most people do not realize. When you call, dispatch does not automatically know where you are. Unless you are on a landline
What an honor it was to pin my husband’s badge today as he was sworn in as Sergeant. This moment was about more than a new badge. It was the years of hard work, the late nights, the long hours, and the calls that stay with you long after the s
Would you take a bullet for someone else? Now take it one step further. Would you take a bullet for someone you don’t like? Would you take one for someone you don’t even know? Decide now. Because if you wait until the moment, the decisi
How many red flags do you see? This is supposed to be an extraction. Instead, it’s a checklist of what not to do. What’s the first thing you’d call out? Keep learning. Keep training. Stay safe.
Some roads teach pace. Some teach faith. Walk both. That’s where peace is found. And if the road feels rough this weekend, slow down and see what it’s trying to teach you. Every road leaves you with something to carry forward, and if it
Rest in peace, SIG P320. I didn’t want to let you go. We were together for 11 years. You were the first pistol I fell in love with that actually fit. My finger reached the trigger without adjusting my grip. That’s rare when you’v
The AR in “AR-15” doesn’t stand for “assault rifle.” I know…. Shocking! But facts don’t care how viral the headline was. It stands for ArmaLite Rifle, the company that designed it in the 1950s. A lightweig

We keep calling it gun violence. But that label barely scratches the surface. 𝐌𝐚𝐬𝐬 𝐬𝐡𝐨𝐨𝐭𝐢𝐧𝐠𝐬. Weapons of war in everyday places. Kids learning how to hide before they know how to spell their names. Communities shattered, then forgotten.
Too many Executive Protection agents carry a firearm and think that’s the job! They don’t train. They don’t dry fire. They don’t put in time on the range or check their gear. But they act as if the firearm is the answer to e
This Memorial Day, we remember. We honor. We thank you. It’s about them—the ones who never made it home. The ones who walked into danger so others wouldn’t have to. The ones whose names are etched in stone and in the hearts of th

A predator that blends in. Observes. Belongs without raising alarms. That’s the threat. Not the one who stands out. Not the one who postures. But the one who moves without disrupting the rhythm of the environment. They don’t demand att
