Biography
I have over 17 years of experience in law enforcement and have trained various personnel in numerous self-defense methods and techniques. We have assisted many local law enforcement officers in enhancing their reaction times, by conducting scenario training and decision-making under stress, all of which can occur every day on the street.
I served two terms in the U.S. Marine Corps, trained in various methods of hand-to-hand combat, armed combat, surveillance techniques, etc., after which I joined the Pinellas County Sheriff's Department. I have worked in corrections, street patrol, narcotics, Tactical Unit, and now presently assigned to the K-9 unit working with my third K-9 (dog) partner.
The creation of the school was a natural outgrowth of my desire to help adults, children develop physically, psychologically and morally, and to provide realistic, "street smart" training for local businesses regarding safety and security issues.
Both my wife, Shelly, and I have very high levels of personal integrity and want to provide you with the best training possible in personal self-defense, whether as an active student in a less structured environment of a Self Defense Seminar.
I would feel honored to meet with you and discuss tailoring a program to your specific needs. This program would incorporate modern self-defense, self-confidence building exercises and would seek to create an enhanced sense of “threat assessment” in the participants. In today's security sensitive environment, this type of training is invaluable in protecting you and your assets.
