"This is honestly the best home study course I have ever seen. I highly recommend this to anyone looking for true knowledge and for those who are tired of being victims."
-Adam Treadway, Team Leader 1st Battalion 9th Reg., 88th Bde New York National Guard
"You totally deserve all the praise you receive! You are an amazing instructor. Thank YOU. You maintain a professional and informative manner throughout the entire video, but I love the way you keep it light with the others in your videos (kickboxing videos as well) and manage to have a few laughs while presenting valuable material thoroughly. That makes it more personal and light and not robotic at all as many instructional videos can be. Kudos to you Tim!"
-Patty Benson Physics Department Office Manager Bridgewater State College
"This is the best self defense course I have ever read. Everything is clearly explained and easy to understand! Phases 1 & 2 are very complementary and greatly enhanced my knowledge of self defense training. IMPECCABLE WORK! "
- Sylvie Unsworth Head Master of IMPACT School of Self Defense Houston, TX
"Good course towards the basic foundation of a self defense instructor. It gives you all the necessary tools to conduct your own class on a practical level as well as a psychological level. The bonus is you also receive a basic knowledge of how the muscles and joints work together to achieve their goal."
- Donald Tummillo Detective Sargent Oakland, NJ
"Very impressed with the material - thorough! The content of both the video and the manual provide excellent instruction to formulate a self defense workshop."
- Karen L. Marts Hilton Head Island, SC A.C.E. Personal Trainer
"As a life-long martial artist, instructor, bodyguard and police officer, I have seen a large volume of programs, most of which suffer when it comes to practicality. I have witnessed, directly and first-hand, while on the job in law enforcement, the tragedies that occur when uninformed, untrained people haplessly meander into a predator's snare. Instructor Rochford's program succeeds where others failed, in that it addresses the most important aspect of personal security awareness.
I personally plan to incorporate many aspects of Tim's program into my own self defense system. I truly and sincerely mean this when I unequivocally state, "this program could save your life!" I full endorse the Empower Training System's Proactive Personal Security Self Defense Training program!"
- Bill Clark, Martial Artist, Bodyguard, Law Enforcement Officer Binghamton, NY
"I just received your PPS course in the mail, having ordered it through NESTA. Although I just started working through the manual this afternoon, I am really impressed with the amount of material in it and background and philosophy it contains. FYI, I have studied self-defense for about 20 years through various Japanese, Korean, and Israeli martial arts, being more concerned with learning than with rank (although I did manage to earn a black belt in Tae Kwon Do along the way). I'm an NRA certified firearms instructor, and was Senior Chaplain with a town police department for five years, through which I received extensive use-of-force training. Your course is right on the money, and I'm looking forward to completing it. Thank you for a very thorough program."
- Chip Hammond Former Senior Chaplain with the Leesburg, VA Police Department
