We are not just bodyguards.

High Risk Teams

We specialize in the protection of high profile motion picture and television superstars, musical artists, professional athletes, politicians, diplomats, royalty, and corporate executives. From an evening on the town to family vacations or business travel on commercial or private aircraft, our agents can handle the job.

No matter where your travels take you, we can provide you with your own "secret service" to protect you and those you care for. We provide access to private tour jets (Lear, Challenger, 747's and C130 cargo jets) and tour bus service. We can also arrange for ground limousines, vans, armored vehicles, and SUV's for your V.I.P. tours and other events. We provide highly trained armed and unarmed plain clothes bodyguards to keep you out of harms way 24 hours a day worldwide.

We have a high-threat team that can be deployed for high-risk situations throughout the United States and overseas. These team members are trained and experienced to work armed, unarmed throughout the US, or abroad. These agents have trained through some of the top federal and private executive protection schools in the world. Although most artists will not need this team, we are prepared if the situation arises.

Medium Risk Teams

Most artists will use a medium risk protection team. This team consists of highly trained personal protection agents that have been through some of the top protection schools and advanced driving schools in the world. Most in the security industry believe the days of the 6'6", 300 lb. knuckle dragging bodyguards are over and have moved to replace them with highly trained individuals. We can provide the 6'6", 300 lb. knuckle dragger who has trained at the top security schools in the world. We find that people in the music and film industry prefer to have these large individuals for reasons of coercion. We also can provide female agents who specialize in handling female and child clientele. A majority of our agents have worked on music tours for ten (10) years or more.

This group knows that dealing with artists with kid gloves is of utmost importance and are used to dealing with the artist and management, and they will not to disrupt the artist's lifestyle.

Low Risk Teams

This team is used for new and up-and-coming artists, and is generally used for crowd control around the artist, be it an autograph signing, concert, or music video to film and television shows. If you need personal protection agents for individual security purposes while filming on location or within a studio, we can provide professional, experienced, bodyguards to meet your needs or the requirements of your clients. Agents can be designated for specific celebrities or cast members as well as an entire cast and crew. We will work undercover in plain clothing or uniformed, armed or unarmed, or any combination customized to fit your needs.

Bodyguards/Personal Assistants

Most of our agents can perform dual roles and add a personal touch to assist the artist and tour manager or publicist. Most of our bodyguards are trained to act as road managers / personal assistants. We feel that, by performing this function, it can save money for the tour and save the artist's reputation. We also make sure that the promoter and venue adhere to the artist contract.

By adding this personal touch, you get more than just a bodyguard...you get a full service personal assistant/ road manager that helps to make the tour, film, video, or other production run smoothly.

Sobriety Protection Unit

Apollo offers a Sobriety Protection Unit (SPU) that assists artists who are coming out of drug or alcohol rehabilitation. This unit will help the artist stay on their twelve step program and will consist of highly trained individuals, to include if requested doctors, RN's or medical technician teams that can travel on tour. We can provide specially trained K-9 to detect illegal substances so we can keep these substances away from the artist. This program can only work if the artists or person using this service has a real desire to stop using and is willing to go by the rules that are set up for that individual in this program. Additionally, the SPU will make sure the artist attends twelve step meetings in every city that they are in and has an AA sponsor that will travel with them if requested. This helps enable the artist to get to every performance and press related activity clean and sober. This service will benefit record companies, managers, and public relations firms that work with the artists as well as the artist or band members. The SPU will be working for the artist to maintain the health of their assets while on tour, at home, or during the filming of movies or videos.

All members of this team agree to sign a non-disclosure agreement between all parties involved, in order to maintain the artist's privacy and insure that no one will ever talk about or against the artist by members of this team. We believe that the privacy and trust of our client is of the up most importance in our industry and our clients have to feel that they can trust us 110%.

We understand that the success of any trip includes first rate, on time ground transportation to and from the airport and to destinations upon arrival.

Depending on the artist's needs, by working with law enforcement we can run a detailed motorcade and use what vehicles may be necessary. For example...limos, sedans, SUV and law enforcement vehicles to get the artist to and from the shows safely and without the hassle of traffic. Our team members, with their credentials, can get artists in places most companies cannot.

Whether you are at sea on your private yacht or a cruise liner, our team leader can set up a protection detail that fits any need, either above or below water.

These services work hand-in-hand with the protection teams and will save you money and provide you more security by booking all of your services through one agency instead of getting several companies involved.

We can offer consulting services to movie industry films and music tours traveling abroad in high-risk countries. Our teams can perform biological sweeps to residences or job sites, anti-terrorism advance work, and protection for clients.

K-9 Services

Safety Seminar

Our team will provide a safety seminar to the artists and band members for their protection. With today's technology and medical advances, the artist must worry about new hazards to their personal and financial safety. This seminar will inform the artist of possible dangers and hazards that we have encountered and what to do to prevent these types of problems on tour.
