“One concept has more than doubled my business success!”

“What I found to be the biggest benefit of the training is the mental attitude necessary to carry it through. The mindset, pro-active thought and action, thinking in series, targeting a goal, all have significant application in everyday life.” B. Jeffrey Madoff, Director New York, NY

“Your other courses have showed me WHERE, WHEN and WHY to strike, punch, and kick, but the Striking series showed me HOW.” As someone who has completed a live training session with you, and has supplemented the training with your training tapes and dvd’s, I still felt a little uneasy about my ability to punch [...]

“Did in hours what others can’t do in even years.” “I highly recommend Tim Larkin’s course to military personnel and civilians. Very realistic and to the point training. One of the things that surprised me was how Tim succeeded to get people with no martial arts background to get their strikes’ timing and range right [...]

“…exactly as advertised — intense, targeted, focused training designed to produce immediate results.”

“The new target chart is simply terrific, well done, and absofreekin beautiful. I’m running out tonight to have it matted and framed, to hang in the house, so the entire family will gain from the knowledge it contains. Just another well produced TFT product, as is everything you have put out at this point. I patiently [...]

“I have not even finished viewing the second disc of your new, live training magnum opus, “Surviving the Most Critical 5 Seconds of Your Life” and yet feel compelled to write. This is – far and away – the single best investment I have made toward authentic self-protection (I train under Vladimir Vasiliev, so that [...]

“I believe that I must express my respect and gratitude to the creators and implementers of this educational product-system who exceeded all my expectations for their vision, discipline, passion, ethics, courage, dedication, and enthusiasm to help others to live better lives.

“How deceptively simple there techniques were to learn and utilize. I thought it would be much more of a training process but the way Tim explains this stuff these things are immediately available to use … there’s no years of schooling or training. It’s a very straightforward, hands-on, ready-to-be-used application. If you have any inkling [...]

“You don’t need all the years of effort.” “I’ve trained as an amateur boxer, then judo, Japanese karate, Korean karate to 6th degree level, full contact fighting in Japan with Tai kick boxers, plus many street altercations, and not one of my many teachers ever explained the impact our strikes had on the central nervous [...]

“I’ve always been interested in martial arts but this totally changed my thinking. It started with emails. I signed up for [Tim Larkin’s] email newsletter and from an email I actually changed a situation that actually happened to me outside in the street! And after that situation I said if I learned that much from [...]

“I figured it’s got to be a lot more difficult than it was. I actually can’t believe how easy learning these offensive moves to protect yourself or your loved ones was. I think it should be taught at a lot younger age so that it becomes second nature to you, and as you’re growing up [...]

“This book will quickly strip away your ingrained, false perceptions about hand-to-hand combat and give you confidence that, with an understanding of what is really needed for victory, you could actually defend yourself against any attacker, regardless of differentials in size, aggressiveness, or skill level.” Scott Nelson, Houston, TX

“Extremely pleased with Lethal Leverage” I recently purchased the Lethal Leverage DVD’s and I’m extremely pleased with them. I’ve previously studied Krav Maga and BJJ, and this is the most effective method for teaching these kinds of techniques. Rather than teaching complex routines, it truly simplifies the entire range of techniques into 6 basic principles. [...]

The ONE I could not stop watching… “I have every DVD series but this was the ONE I could not stop watching. So inspiring that I want to sign up for the mastery class. I especially liked the attention to detail with body positioning and follow through. The material was intense and well constructed. Great [...]

“Justified Lethal Force shows we get the same info as the experts!” “This is a beautifully clear presentation of what has to be done to save your life in a desperate situation, given to people who may very well expect to face such situations and need the best training possible. That the very same information [...]

But TFT whether you’re young, old, have an infirmity — most everything in TFT can be done by anyone. “For people in the law enforcement profession, [...]

“Practical, no nonsense, save-your-life training.” Bryan Kelly Chicago, IL

“I look forward to more learning and practice.” “This weekend course gave me a clear understanding of the principles involved in neutralizing an opponent. Unlike all the forms of self-defense and martial arts I’ve been exposed to, this program really identified the purpose of various moves and strikes. The concept of an opponent, regardless of [...]

“Very different from any other Martial Arts or Fighting class I’ve taken.” Greg Weber Arvada, CO

“One concept has more than doubled my business success!” “After taking your courses, not only do I now have the freedom to know exactly what to do in a life or death situation, but one simple concept I learned there has increased my business success more than double! I’m extremely fortunate that someone recommended TFT [...]

“One of the biggest benefits I received is the fact that my perception or attitude about fighting has changed. I always thought about being in a defensive position and then striking. But now I feel the confidence of striking my attacker first when he starts to come at me if I can’t avoid the situation. [...]

“As a non-lethal force training officer, I found TFT to be the best…” “With 36 years in Martial Arts and being the training officer on non-lethal force I have found that TFT is the best system for everyone. Most systems need you to in top physical shape to make their system work. TFT will work [...]

It is very safe, with emphasis on control… “My first experience [with TFT] was life changing. In fact a lot of the principles are diametrically opposed to what they teach you in other martial arts…It is very safe, with emphasis on control. I’ve taken 3 or 4 different versions of martial arts and combat training [...]

“An outstanding product” “What makes TFT’s Lethal Leverage Series an outstanding product is the thorough research of the principles involved in the destruction of any joint in the human body, along with the clear and very understandable explanation that is presented in the DVD’s. I must say that in my forty plus years in the [...]

Researching and perfecting effective fighting methods is a life-long passion for Mr. Larkin. Through repeated exposure to combat sports and martial arts, he became highly proficient at both during his youth. Following graduation from college, Mr. Larkin was injured in a diving accident while undergoing US Navy SEAL Training and was medically disenrolled from the [...]

“After learning all the strategic and tactical stuff, I can really take action. It’s incredible. I’m so empowered after just 3 days. It’s just amazing…” John Coleman, Microsoft Executive New York, NY

“Unmatched in the industry!” “The techniques you teach in the new Striking Series are easy to follow but would be completely ineffective if you hadn’t taken the time to explain the principles behind using your weight in every strike instead of your strength. I find your method of fighting… let me rephrase that… your method [...]

“I had never been through training presented like this. We jumped immediately into drills. It made me learn very quickly. Improves fighting skills quickly without a lot of filler material. You definitely get what you pay for.” Matt, Federal Law Enforcement Officer Mt. Pleasant, SC

“If you’re smart — buy this package!” “I am long past the point of learning “flashy techniques”. Techniques are, or at least, should be application of principles. Many people advocate, “Practice makes perfect”. Not if what you are practicing is inadequate. “Perfect practice makes perfect”! “Without the principles behind techniques you do not have a [...]

“TFT has nothing to do with being muscular. Instead it has everything to do with a sense of confidence and understanding that there are various target points on the body, and being able to access them is devastating… ” Brad Kay, Advertising Executive Merkley, Newman, Harty & Partners New York City

“Target Focus Training is the kind of experience that every woman should have. It’s a very intense weekend; certainly not a walk-in-the-park. But the consequences of being attacked are not a walk-in-the-park either. The unfortunate reality is we do live in a violent world and there’s a possibility of something happening… not something we really [...]

“The biggest benefit I received from your training is a tremendous increase in self-confidence. I really feel that if I have to, I can defend myself and my family. This confidence permeates though all my thoughts, dreams, feelings, and relationships. How can you put a price on that? — You can’t, it’s priceless. “I think [...]

“It’s real, scientific, and it works.” Dennis Burns Indianapolis, IN

Escalated my skills to a whole new level… “…when I came to Tim Larkin’s training in Dallas…I was doubtful as to whether or not someone could take a weekend training and be able to apply it effectively and especially in a lethal way, which he is talking about in all the advertising. Well, surprise of [...]

“An “equalizer” regardless of size, weight and gender” “A student for more than a decade in a martial art that includes joint breaking, I was quite impressed with your Lethal Leverage System and have studied them carefully, also in slow motion. “Other DVD programs attempt to include joint breaking in their “self defense systems,” and [...]

“I recently purchased the 17 DVD set and I am truly amazed at the research you have done and the way you have distilled the essence into an easy to understand and apply method. Regard’s,” W. W. Gorski Montana

“Strips away all my preconceived notions about violence!” “The bootcamp is about as subtle as a freight train! By that I mean, you guys strip away preconceived notions I had about violence and put solid facts in their place. [TFT] removed my ignorance, which in turn removed a great deal of fear.” Matthew Hall Network [...]

“One reason I came to this training is if I found myself in a life-threatening situation I wanted to be able to be able to handle that. The training accomplished that and a whole lot more. “What I hadn’t expected were the direct business applications. We are defensive by nature; all of our terminology is [...]

“Target Focus Training is not about an individual. Even though Tim Larkin created it, it truly is a ‘system’ and all the instructors that are part of the team are amazing and in sync. All work off the principles and the systems, and while you see nuances that are exciting in each instructor, there is [...]
