Target Focus Training - » “Sign up, take it. You’re not going to regret it.”

“What I like was the simplicity: find a target, hit a target and continue ’til done. You can teach anyone this program. Different than any other training you’ve probably had.” Eric, Federal Law Enforcement Officer Goose Creek, SC var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, twitter, [...]

“I was amazed at the systemic clarity of your system” “Before entering the teaching profession I spent many years in the personal protection field both here and abroad. I have trained extensively in many of the combat oriented arts and have field tested virtually all of the arts I have studied in the course of that [...]

“The biggest benefit is the confidence gained through the use of the proper mindset and the realization of how easy it is to defeat the majority of attacks you may face through some of the simplest of actions. It was made very clear about how easy the body can be destroyed if need be but [...]

“One of the biggest benefits I received from the combat training course is the confidence that I now have in dealing with potentially violent encounters. Although we all hope to go through life avoiding such situations, it is almost inevitable that we will find ourselves involved in at least one such predicament. This is all [...]

“Other programs left me with questions. You left none!” “I run a martial arts school in Washington state. My business partner and I have always questioned some of what we were taught regarding practicality. When we came across your program it was like someone flipped the switch. We followed the programs to the letter looking for [...]

“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, [...]

“This met and exceeded my expectations. The material was well presented and understandable. Having attended a [competitor’s live training] I had familiarity with some concepts presented; however the presentation at TFT was much clearer.”

“As an academic, I am particularly impressed with your process of explanation” “Watching the joint breaking package I purchased has left me very impressed with both the system of “applied violence” as well as the indisputably qualified staff involved with TFT. The information provided and style of presentation is extremely effective in illustrating that you people [...]

“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 [...]

“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 var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, twitter, live, more’;

“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 var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, twitter, [...]

“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 [...]

“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 [...]

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 [...]

“Presented at an intellectual level beyond any product I have seen!” “As a male approaching 60 with his best fighting years behind him, I was looking for training addressing life-or-death situations which have become all to numerous in the Milwaukee area. Your Striking Series fit my needs to a T. Principles are presented at an intellectual level [...]

“I am 55 years old and have spent most of my life trying to become better at defending myself and family. I went thru the macho stage where bar fights were the measure of the man; then to martial arts training but never getting good enough to be instinctive with it. When I found TFT [...]

“Very different from any other Martial Arts or Fighting class I’ve taken.” Greg Weber Arvada, CO var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, twitter, live, more’;

“I like martial arts a lot, so I’ve trained 4 or 5 times a week for years. I’ve done a lot of tournament fighting. What I like about TFT that was so different is the shift in mindset. In martial arts it’s all about points. When we do Shotokan, it’s points. When you put a [...]

“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 var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, twitter, live, more’;

“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!”

“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 [...]

“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 [...]

“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 var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, twitter, [...]

“Better than any I have ever seen” “I have done some form of martial arts for over 20 years and have been exposed to a lot of instructional tapes on various aspects of joint work. I do have to say your DVD is the most concise and explains the principles and applications better than any I [...]

“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 var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var [...]

“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 within [...]

“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 var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var [...]

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 [...]

“I’ve watched all the NY videotapes and they have totally transcended my expectations. I’ve purchased [other] tapes and even attended [other live training] camps. I thought I had a pretty good grasp of all the principles involved. However, the quantity AND quality of information on these tapes just blew me away completely.”

“All I can say is that Tim Larkin has made me look at certain situations in a totally different way. He has changed my way of thinking in a crisis situation. He has given me the knowledge to be prepared and to look for “targets” on a would-be attacker. He has taught me about primary, [...]

“So simple… why didn’t I think of this?” “Being dan ranked in several styles of martial arts and having been in many altercations while living overseas, I was skeptical about your system. I have to admit that I decided to purchase the series after seeing Matt Furey endorse it. “What do I have to say about the [...]

“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 [...]

“This Series showed us things we never even thought about before” “Almost every fight I’ve been in wound up looking like a sloppy boxing match. Growing up when you saw the local tough guys fighting on the corner they were pretty much bare knuckle boxing, until someone went down and it ended in a boot party. [...]

“A real-eye opener” “I have found the Joint Breaking DVD series to be a real-eye opener. Not being a highly trained martial artist I have had only limited exposure to this area and that exposure principally through books. I have found this medium to be, for me at least, totally inadequate as I found visualizing the [...]

“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 [...]

“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 [...]

“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 [...]

“What I’ve learned has definitely 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 [...]

“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 [...]

“We’ve seen them all but [TFT] was the most effective five days of training in hand-to-hand and hand-to-weapon that I and everyone else had ever experienced.” Brian, Federal Law Enforcement Officer South Carolina var addthis_pub = ‘tftgroup’; var addthis_brand = ‘TFT’;var addthis_language = ‘en’;var addthis_options = ‘email, favorites, digg, delicious, myspace, google, facebook, twitter, live, more’;
