Yesterday I completed my first, live fire training course with All Safe Defense. I found the course very helpful, conducted with the precision of a Swiss watch with complete focus on safety. It’s clear they have been doing this for quite a while. The staff was perfect, taking the time to answer questions, providing tips to improve timed drills and at no time “barked” at trainees like some other places do. They maintained order and kept everyone’s muzzle pointed in the right direction. While there were some challenges that I found difficult (holding 12ga shotgun shells between the first and pinky fingers for reloading while moving) I saw the benefits of every drill. Our class had it all…amateurs who never fired a shotgun before to highly trained combat soldiers who zipped through the timed drills with enviable efficiency, accuracy, and speed. This really helped us to appreciate the value of the training and the potential we all have with both live fire and at-home practice with dummy shells.
Perhaps the most surprising revelation was the tone and tenor of the course. It wasn’t “military” (as I expected) at all. The course was relaxed, enjoyable and because of the kind and understanding nature of the All Safe Defense coaches…everyone in the class was supportive and encouraging as well. The time just flew by! TJ was especially patient and replied to all my emails in the weeks before the course (I sent way too many) and having been trained elsewhere…recognized the superior attention to detail he exhibited. TJ sets the customer care bar so high, other self defense trainers need to charter a plane just to see it. If you seek quality training that’s fun…this is your choice. All Safe Defense is unique in that all the students were smiling throughout the course. No “drill Sergeant mentality” here. Take one class…you’ll be back.
