Self Defense Expert Gives Family the EdgeI have been a Self Defense and Martial Arts instructor for the better part of my life. Even though I train with my son on a regular basis, I'm always looking for a different perspective for training. The 60 Minute Self Defense program allowed me to reinforce what I have been teaching my son all along. But you know how it is sometimes -- our kids need to hear it from someone else before they believe it.Jerry Caropolo and son, Jerry, Jr. |

The Simplicity of Self DefenseAs an Employee of the Self Defense Company we are required to take the 60 Minute Self Defense Course. I though it was going to be the same old "feel good" program, telling me that after one lesson, I can beat up everyone up. This was clearly not the case. The program appealed to my common sense and gave me something real I could use immediately. I have since continued with The Self Defense Training System.William Pehush, Customer Service Manager |

High School Student Prepares for The Real WorldI am getting ready to go to college and I just wanted to learn something that would help me be a little street smarter. The 60 Minute Self Defense Program was like Self Defense 101. I learned what to look for and how to avoid dangerous situations.

Equipment Operator Saves Time with 60 Minute Self DefenseTo tell you the truth, I never had time for Self Defense Training. Every martial arts school I walked into told me it would take years. I don't have the time for that, what I do have is 60 minutes. This program showed me quick and easy tactics that I can use all the time. I have since started training in martial arts, but the 60 Minute Self Defense Program has given my the foundation I need (I even taught my wife!).Joe Lembo |

IT Executive Discover Solution for Self DefenseI started looking into martial arts training and to be honest, the idea of wearing a uniform, bowing and saying "yes sir" every minute was not for me. 60 Minute Self Defense has allowed me to learn practical self defense without changing my lifestyle. I simply watch the video and put the tips on the refrigerator to remind me before I go to work in the morning. My awareness has increased and I started practicing some of the drills from the program. The next step is going to be The Self Defense Training System.Ian Fosso |

Police Sergeant Finally Gets The Tactical Training He Was Searching ForI have taken literally dozens of tactical courses through the department. All of them have something to offer, but in general they are too complicated for realistic policing. The 60 Minute Self Defense Program and The Self Defense Training System are the first tactical training programs that I can say with 100% certainty will help me do my job better and get home at the end of my shift. I recommend this course to anyone who wants to cut through the fluff and get right to the heart of real defensive tactics.Heath James, Police Officer |

After the 60 Minute Self Defense Course I now know exactly what to avoid, what my expectations are and how I can escape and survive. Every kid going away to college should see this program.Tom Balunis, College Student |

Woman Finds Piece of Mind in 60 MinutesLike most women, my safety is an issue. I also don't have the time to dedicate to taking a martial art, I am an avid cyclist and that takes up most of my time so the 60 Minute Self Defense Course was perfect. It showed me exactly what I needed to know and gave me specific rules to follow. I also learned how to use things like pepper spray and personal alarms the right way. Every woman needs to take this course.Sarah DellaFave, Federal Employee |

EMT Discovers How To Save Himself on the JobI have to respond to some pretty rough areas. Our rigs have medical suplies and drugs on board and local criminals will almost stop at nothing to get their hands on them. The 60 minute Self Defense Program gave me the foundation for personal self defense. After that course I moved onto The Self Defense Training System (which I completed). Combined they have given me everything I need to know about tactical self defense and more. I now train on my own terms and at my own pace. I go on the training forum and as questions- I have even attended a few training seminars. I'm still nervous going on a call in the bad parts of town, but at least I have the skills and a plan of action to make sure I come home safely.Mike LeSane, Emergency Medical Technician |

Teenager Gets Some Street SmartsI want my son to know how to stay out of trouble. Today is different than when I was growing up. Kids are harder and growing up faster. The 60 Minute Self Defense program helped me communicate to my son what I learned through a life time of hard knocks. I recommend this system to anyone who wants to give their child the edge to survive in the school yard and the street.Omar Mouray and son Nicholas |

Now I Know I Can Protect MyselfLike most women I realize that I am a target. I have looked at a lot of martial arts, most take a lot of strength, years to learn and are simply unrealistic, I thought I had to learn how to fight. In the first 5 minutes of 60 Minute Self Defense I learned how to protect myself without even throwing a single strike. It started with how to spot a threat and continued with nonlethal methods and then how to escape from anyone. I know now that "tactics come first." I have used what I learned in the 60 Minute Self Defense Program several times and it's an empowering feeling to take control of a situation before it gets out of control.Michele Campione, Information Technolgies Trouble Shooter |
