“The models are excellent. I’ve done competitive sports where fighting is involved and I always knew they wouldn’t have any application in a real street situation. Tim showed us some really good methods to defuse situations, or turn the situation around where you’re no longer being attached, you’re the attacker. He keeps the instructions simple, easy to follow, and you can really take things out of here that’ll change your perspective on being the victim on the street.”

“When I first started here I was pretty skeptical that I could learn techniques that, it seemed to me were pretty advanced self-protection, in such a short time. Actually, the way (Tim) teaches is so easy to learn that you feel very empowered, very quickly … It’s an excellent place to quickly learn non-threatening techniques that can save your life or your family’s life in the future.”

“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 of wanting to protect yourself or your family, this is a great course. It cuts right to the chase and gives you exactly what you need without a lot of periphery information that is really just technique-based stuff and of no practical use … Tim was a great instructor, very easy to follow, and wonderfully low-keyed in approach.

“I found the combat training to be very effective for building my self confidence. After taking the course I was able to practice several of the techniques and continue to develop skills necessary to protect myself and my family. The skills that were taught were very easy to follow due to your straight forward and hands on style of instruction. Having no self-defense training prior to this seminar I was very pleased how quickly I was able to learn to protect myself. I feel everyone should have some level of this training.”

“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 you’ve got the level of confidence to take care of yourself…

“The TFT Training Program was single handedly the most important thing I did this year -business or personal. As an Entrepreneur & CEO of a growing company I read and spend a lot of time learning new skills. The skills I learned over the weekend with Tim, along with the events over the days afterwards, allowed me to feel, at the very least, confident that if I ever came in contact with terrorists, I would have a better chance for survival. I view this skill set, more than any other, as practical and timely given the uncertainty in the world.

“I also don’t consider myself “coordinated” when it comes to fighting but Tim’s course gave me the coordination I needed to save myself or my family if ever met with an unfortunate dangerous situation.”

There have been some great comments on Part 1 of this post regarding the video footage various broadcast television stations are using in local self defense news stories.

My thanks especially to attorneys Zeljko Vukman (who’s had training similar to TFT while in Special Forces in the former Yugoslavia) and Ron Bear (California). If you haven’t read their comments you can find them here.

Thanks also to all of you that left your comments directly on the broadcast stations’ websites. They have certainly heard your voice.

The folks who produced the original video the broadcast stations are using are now forwarding attorney/TFT instructor Matthew Suitor’s comments (you can see Matt’s response here).

They’re also including an updated script for the stations to use. However, with the university professor’s comments already on video we’ll have to see if it helps much.

Finally, I wanted to touch on the 3 questions I left you with…

— Below is the text of my Aug 30 msg —

At a recent live training session I noticed one guy doing very well, right from the start of class.

Slow, deliberate, focused on his targets, rarely talking. Everything we ask to maximize your results.

At a break, we passed each other and he introduced himself as David Morris.

I complimented him on how quickly he was picking things up. And that’s when I discovered not only did he have every DVD program we’ve ever produced, he also had all the DVDs I’d helped create back in the mid-90’s after we’d taken this material into US Naval Special Warfare Command.

(David was a walking advertisement for just how easily you can learn TFT from DVDs.)

Then I asked what he did.

“I teach people about urban survival.”

“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.”
