“Excellent. No one else is doing this kind of useful training. It’s a base knowledge that you can use for the rest of your life. The new format of not working from a strike teaches you not to wait and to get close and inside. You will know how to fight after you complete this [...]

“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 to my weapon or whether someone attempts to take my weapon. Excellent!” Aaron Gardiner Sheriff Deputy, Houston, [...]

“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 //

“TFT is totally different from what I’ve been taught to do in Tae Kwon Do!” Sean Mullins Bakersfield, CA //

“I have 15 years of training, Tae Kwon Do to Aikido, a jack-of-all-trades, master of none. I never stuck with one for more than 2 years like lots of folks. Each got redundant. I felt I walked out of the dojo without anything I could practically use on the street. So I hopped from one [...]

“As far as police defensive tactics training — it’s light years ahead. PDTT is still in the ‘50’s.and because of that guys aren’t getting the real deal. They’re getting stuff that’s gonna get them hurt in the street. Even a lot of the people who are teaching commercially to police are just taking a chance [...]

“It is refreshing to finally read a book on the importance of injury in a self protection system. Great reading such a controversial topic taught in such a professional common sense approach.” Robin Chadwick Boca Raton, FL //

“By far one of the most devastating fighting systems I’ve trained in.” “As President of the International Society of Close Quarter Combatants, I’ve seen and tested perhaps hundreds of various martial arts and self defense programs. Tim’s ‘Target Focus Training’ is by far one of the most devastating fighting systems I’ve trained in throughout nearly 30 [...]

“…these were the most effective days of training in hand-to-hand and hand-to-weapon that I, or everyone else, had ever experienced.” Brian (Agent attending the live training) US Border Patrol //

“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 [...]

“Get this Striking Series first…” “I have 10 years Shotokan Karate, 2 years Aikido and 4 years JuJitsu. Each is geared to reacting to attack from within the system. I never felt comfortable when considering a real life situation. If that sounds confusing then maybe this will explain better; in karate you are taught to block [...]

“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 [...]

“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 size or weapons he might have, as a [...]

“Real world self defense.” No flying thru the air, no yelling, no meditating. Just straight to the heart principles that anyone can use.” Martin Lingle San Jose, CA //

“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 back [...]

“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 [...]

“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 Engineer Denton, TX //

“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 travel a lot in my work as a marketing consultant. Some of our multi national clients have offices in countries that aren’t on “the safest places to visit” list. Couple that with having to fly almost every international airline several times a year and my chances of becoming a victim of Anti-American sentiment may [...]

“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 of [...]

Nothing was kept secret… “Surpassed any expectations that I could have imagined! At last someone tells the truth! Everything was broken down to the simplest of terms and nothing was kept secret from anyone. Well Done!” William Allen Mapleton, ME //

“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 defensive. [...]

“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 [...]

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

“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 [...]

“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 end [...]

“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 [...]

“I’ve had a lot of weapons training with [my husband - a police officer]. NOTHING was as effective as this course. The gun in my hand, or the knife in my hand, was in my way at this point. I couldn’t believe what my hands could do! And if there’s a woman out there that’s [...]

“Faster pace was good [as was] working on concrete. Really appreciated detail and high interest level of instructors to make students better. Minimizes the frills. Most direct system ever experienced.” Dan Nattress Cardiff, CA //

“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 [...]

“My expectations were high. I wasn’t disappointed.” William D Haueter Magna, UT //

“Gives you a life saving skill essential to successfully living in the present world. I have studied/taught martial art for 37 years and found this a refreshing and utilitarian approach to fighting I will pursue further. Definitely will change the way I practice my martial arts.” Joseph Bobovsky, Physician Yakima, WA //

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 [...]

“Never before have I come across a book that addresses the use of violence in the open and honest manner this book does. As a former soldier, we were taught the simple fact that when fighting for your life, it’s you or your opponent – anything goes. The authors of this book address this basic [...]

“While I always had a tendency to act, I now have a commitment to act. The difference is confidence and the knowledge provided in this course. Absolutely useable!! Incredible value!” Name withheld (proof on file) CEO, Software company Vancouver, BC, Canada //

Most simple and straight forward information you can get to save your life… “Unquestionably the most simple and straight forward information you can get to save your life. If you can see through the Hollywood violence of the movies and really wrap your mind around the idea and brutality of ending your [...]

“Easily worth 5 times what I paid!” “I think of all the years of practice that could have gone to other things — and I’d still have been a better fighter. It was easily worth 5 times what I paid.” George Davis International Financial Consultant Laguna Beach, CA //

“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 //

“The timing of the course could not have been more perfect. I am a frequent traveler. Taking a trip is not what it used to be. Before September 11,2001 I did not think about actually flying. Now, when I board a plane my mind thinks of possible ill-fated scenarios that can occur while flying. What [...]
