“Very different from any other Martial Arts or Fighting class I’ve taken.”

Greg Weber
Arvada, CO

“A person can attend this and get more actual fighting ability than they would by signing up for a lengthy martial arts program. As a police officer I learned more about surviving a deadly encounter [in 2½ days] than in 13 years of experience.” Rocky Triplet, Police Officer Reno, NV

“I recently purchased your 17 DVD series and after review, I am quite impressed. In addition, I find myself releasing my grip on traditional convention that I’ve previously learned through 11 years of training in Judo/Jujitsu…This I did not expect, although I must attest, I am most pleased that things are becoming clearer than I [...]

“This course exceeded my expectations. As a Vietnam vet (Navy) I was sent to a first-class swimming course designed to train a person to rescue downed pilots. The training was long and are a is worth it weeks time. I learned and experienced a lot. But this weekend I put ahead of that experience. Incredible [...]

Immediately available to use…there’s no years of schooling or training… “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, [...]

“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.

“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

“It’s a must.” “Cuts through a lot of things you would have to go through in a traditional school (martial arts). This is the most time efficient and realistic approach I’ve ever seen. It’s a must.” Bruce Kelly Chicago, IL

“You receive an education in the true dynamic of fighting and the full implications of violence, positive and negative.” Jason Woodard Reno, NV

“I couldn’t put it down. Read it in one sitting. It’s a brilliant study on the use of violence as a tool and its use in social, asocial, & antisocial settings. If you’re considering the purchase of any self defense tool or training I highly recommend you read this book before doing so. You won’t [...]

“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 loved it! Tim you have made the art of war a simple and very straightforward task. You answered all of my questions thoroughly in a very easy to understand way. You demonstrated every move no matter how many times it took and explained until I understood. My training at home will never be the [...]

Removed my ignorance, which in turn removed a great deal of fear… “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 Engineer Denton, TX

“I liked the immediate application of techniques and lectures explaining the science behind CNS [central nervous system] reactions and the anatomy and physiology examples. Allowed me to comprehend everything much better. This training allows you to immediately understand and perform lethal fighting skills that will save your life.”

No longer will fear getting into a situation where I can’t get to my weapon… “Being a police officer I thought that my gun was the most lethal weapon. I now know that my brain is the most lethal weapon and I no longer will fear over getting into a situation where I can’t get [...]

“Way beyond what I expected!” “It’s obvious that a lot of thought went into the course. The instructors KNOW their information and present it in a way that shows that without being condescending. Your verbal and visual teaching method really worked well for me. Well Done! Ooh-rah! from an old Marine. “The training restored my [...]

“If you’re not prepared to deliver a lethal response in a life threatening situation whether through physical means or the use of a handgun do not waste your time reading this book. It is not for the faint-hearted and limp-wristed. Having survived a tour in Nam as a combat medic I can attest to the [...]

You don’t need to be a world class athlete with superhuman strength, speed or agility to make it work… “Anyone can learn to do this, and you don’t need to be a world class athlete with superhuman strength, speed or agility to make it work. Tim, you have my unqualified recommendation. I know this is [...]

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

“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

“Exceeded my expectations…” “Finally I have learned something that applies to real life situations! The TFT camp exceeded my expectations from the material taught and it’s application in real life to the superior teaching method applied.” Steven LaMania Bradenton, FL

The absolute best in their field. Everyone else is four steps behind… “Intense, effective, highly recommended. An incredible experience. Larkin and his instructors are the absolute best in their field. Everyone else is four steps behind. What I liked was the intensity, the lack of unnecessary info, jargon and fluff. A complete focus on the [...]

“Allowed me to increase my striking power by at least 50%!” “The Striking Series has opened up a whole new level of striking power for me and my training partners. I’ve been in martial arts/self defence for 20 years and thought I had a good handle on using body mechanics to generate hitting power. However, [...]

“It was so easy… I could handle people in this class, and I’m sure on the street, who were much, much taller than me, much heavier than me, much younger than me and much stronger than me… I was able to handle them with ease. If you have any concerns for your safety, this is [...]

“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 [...]

“Awesome — very thorough, very easy to understand. A difficult topic to discuss coming from a white, middle class upbringing. [Class was] challenging but not impossible for any size person, male or female. Life Changing — Important — Thorough — Complete!”

“…the approach & philosophy of his training will be with me forever.” “I can say without hesitation that after two days with Tim I know that if I were placed in a situation where I would have to protect myself, my friends or my family that I would be prepared. The few black and blue [...]

“Through the techniques Tim showed us I realized how easy it was to overcome an individual no matter what their size was. Also how effective it was compared to other training I have had in the past. I would like to continue with this training and show it to my family and close friends. I [...]

“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. [...]

“I’ve ordered video’s from names like (withheld) and respect them and their ideas. But you have given me a logical system that I can train and do despite an artificial hip and other chronic injuries as a result of 33 yrs of firefighting.” John Carmody Norfolk, VA

“What a difference a weekend makes!” “Since I took the class in San Diego, my whole life has changed for the better. I am able to walk away and avoid situations very easy by knowing that we can ALL be hurt or killed in a seemingly minor scrap. In the past my ego always made [...]

“For me, a veteran of the martial arts and a medical professional Target Focus™ Training was just as spectacular. I heard explanations that would befit a trauma specialist and learned principles that most martial arts masters save for their advanced black belts. Without cloaking techniques in mysticism, without diluting the realities of combat in a [...]

“Very well constructed” “It’s marvelous, because it reduces the whole thing to basic principles: three rotation axes, and two directions of rotation about each one – six base leverages; what does it take to bring any one of those leverages to the pathological limit, and beyond? That’s IT. Nothing more needs to be added. From [...]

I highly recommend Tim Larkin’s course to military and law enforcement personnel and civilians alike. 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 within hours. As you know, in most martial [...]

“But the actual gemstone of this series is Multi-Striking — using your arms and legs, driven by your bodyweight to deliver simulatenous stikes and impact. Learning the multi-striking principles alone, I can really create my own combinations of strikes. Couple this with striking with rhthym and timing, I now know where an injured assailant is [...]

“Frankly, I went to Tim Larkin’s training kicking and screaming. I truly had no interest in attending, being part of the practice time, or wasting time learning skills I know I would never use. But through the constant, gentle, persuasion by (a friend), I attended. “When I arrived at the training, I sat in the [...]

“It gives a 360 degree understanding of the subject. I possessed the physical side and understanding but I could never fully understand the mental part. Once I finished your book I realized I could get the job done if need be… without hesitation. The way you communicate so clearly on the subject, I can see [...]

“I was fortunate to have undergone training just 2 days before the disaster on Sept 11… the training I had received would have taken over and served me, and my country, well. Unfortunately, in this day and age of violence, it is extremely important to learn how to protect yourself and your family. Since taking [...]

“I found Tim’s knowledge especially practical and applicable in ways which I have never imagined previously. His style is efficient; it’s designed to achieve the maximal effect in the least amount of time. The most amazing aspect is how simple and easy it is to learn. Even though I’ve had training in the martial arts, [...]

Using the disarm you taught us, 3 TIMES I took the pistol away from him without being ‘shot.’” “Yesterday I was a part of a pistol certification course put on by [a well-known and highly regarded instructor] for a major US city Police Department SWAT team. “To make a long story short — at the [...]

“To the point, no non-sense, get-the-job-done stuff.” “I received your joint breaking videos and they are the real deal. I have taken Hapkido for two years and a couple months of Kung Fu San Soo and this is the first time I feel like I can actually teach someone to break a joint or joint [...]
