Always a student, sometimes a teacher.
This philosophy is central to the culture at Justified Self Defense, LLC. Our doctrine is rooted in rehearsed, systematic, and practical techniques in gun handling, decision-making, tactics, and fitness. Another cornerstone of our doctrine is the emphasis on preparation as a key to success. It has been said that "criminals don't make appointments." Hence the onus is on law-abiding Americans to responsibly embrace ongoing training and preparedness as a part of life—and we're here to help.
We strive to inoculate our clients from debilitating fear when faced with interpersonal violence. We combine proven techniques and competent instruction to help clients develop and deploy good pre-selected responses under stress. Inspired by Col. Jeff Cooper, Gunsite Academy, and Marksmanship Matters, we teach specific skills in a specific way to teach effective self-defense. Our founder's law enforcement background also provides clients with an edge in minimizing exposure to criminal prosecution and lawsuits.
You wouldn't accept anything less than the best instruction in the best techniques to protect yourself and your loved ones. That's why you want a teacher with relevant experience: Josh is a former infantry captain in the Marines, an LAPD gang unit officer, State Police homicide detective, and certified firearms instructor with 15 years Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu training. Josh has been training good Americans and he continues to hone his own skills to serve his community as a protector.
