Another 5 star review under TJ's belt. Just completed his two day Pistol Instructor class. The amount of information TJ was able to convey in a not so boring manner, within 2 days was amazing. What you get out of it is what you put in. His philosophy is to learn through Total Participant Involvement. He does not bark commands at you and really stresses student involvement. Great mentor, coach, teacher. Looking forward to taking more classes with him. read more

TJ and his staff, including Marty, are very knowledgeable and helpful, especially to a newbie like me. The classroom instruction made you feel safe when it was time to go to IRL shooting. It was especially good to get to try 7 different guns before you selected the one you wanted to use for the rest of the night. read more

Excellent class! TJ and his staff do a terrific job. Always stresses safety on the range. The pace of the class move swiftly from drill to drill, so there's never a dull moment, always something to learn. read more

TJ and his team of highly qualified instructors provide the best CCW renewal training I have ever experienced! I highly recommend Allsafe Defense System to everyone who want friendly but insightful instruction in the laws and use of self defense firearms. read more

This was such a fun class! If you're a beginner do not hesitate to sign up.They are extremely helpful and friendly. You start off with a very informative in classroom setting at their location, where you go over all the basics and then head over to the gun range (outside field). All the instructors and friendly and help you with everything. Don't be embarrassed to ask questions they are ALL extremely knowledgeable. My husband and I had a great time and are both looking forward to the intermediate class. read more

TJ is the most professional firearms instructor as well as the most knowledgeable. I recommend people with little firearms experience to the most experienced take his courses. They are geared towards your skill level. read more

TJ and his staff are exceptional instructors! They are very helpful providing tips for both novice and experienced firearm handlers. They provide sufficient classroom instruction coupled with range instruction. They make the learning process fun and engaging. I will be taking courses from them in the future. read more

TJ and his crew were GREAT to work with...not to mention very funny. They made the class very enjoyable and I was able to learn a lot. It was not my first time shooting guns but it was my first time getting professional instruction. I highly recommend! read more

I took the NRA RSO class with Allsafe Defense System. The class was most enjoyable, full of good additional information than the regular material, TJ was very professional, explains the material real well, answered all m questions and made the class fun. There were two parts of the class which I found exceedingly useful, a visit to an indoor range to observe their procedures and look at the range, the other part I found very helpful was the hands on portion at the door, gave our class exposure to some unique firearms and how to clear them. I definitely recomen them excellent class, most enjoyable! read more

Overall, it was a great experience for first timers. TJ and all the instructors/volunteers were welcoming, patient and went above and beyond to make sure we were safe and having fun. I would definitely recommend them for anybody looking to own a gun or simply learn a new skill set and familiarize yourselves with how to safely operate a handgun. The shooting courses were extremely organized and well instructed. You'd be in good hands!! read more

Brought my wife and daughter for their first class and they had a blast. The instructors were great and we had a blast!! I am signing up for the next classes as well. read more

I have turned to AllSafe for training on 5 occasions from my first visit to the range to follow-up sessions. I don't even look at other trainers. I trust TJ and his staff for safety, knowledge, and their willingness to share their experience in a way that I can use at my own level. read more

TJ is an amazing instructor. He went out of his way to find an instructor in my area that would get me thru the pre-requisite course required to be able to enroll in his course, a task which i was being passed around to different instructor with out any success until TJ got involves and lined me us with someone who was in my area. On top of that, TJ himself is a great instructor, his straight to the point and no none sense approach keeps the class engaged and fun and most of all informative. I would recommend anyone looking for high quality training in with a friendly and professional instructor to come out an see and see TJ, i wil be taking his rifle instructors course pretty soon and look forward to work with him in the future. read more

Took the Basic Handgun safety class and highly recommended it !!! TJ is an amazing instructor and his team is top notch. Learned so much and they made it fun as well. Can't wait to take the intermediate class! read more

This was a renewal class for me and the quality of instruction just keeps getting better. TJ's technique of using the quiz format to elicit questions and conversation about current events and law is excellent. He has a depth of practical knowledge that is hard to find. I also want to thank his associate Trish. I am a senior CCW licensee and by nighttime my energy is pretty low. Trish helped me with magazine loading and clarifications so that i was better able to keep up with the class. Michael's shooting demonstrations were also helpful. A great class all around. read more

Exceptional class! New to guns, I took the beginner class and was a bit cautious and nervous but by the time I was done I have much greater confidence, knowledge and proficiency. I was most impressed with the one on one ratio of instructors to students during the different types of range shooting drills. After getting to know various handguns, I now have a best fit for me. To TJ/Marty and all the instructors thank you again it was great! I will be back for more classes. read more

This is the second time my wife have been through the introductory course, but they were 15 years apart. This time we included our two teenage boys and three cousins. Everyone learned a lot and had fun doing it. The venue, staff, and equipment are top notch. The value for the price is high and we couldn't recommend this more for men, women, and teenagers. Some of us will likely be back for the intermediate class in the future. read more

Been a customer since 2014. They will continue to get my business. Informative and engaging classroom sessions. A variety of classes to choose from. Instructors, Mike and Mary, highly skilled, helpful and pleasant. read more

Look no further! This is the class you want to take! TJ is an amazing instructor and puts on a top notch experience for all skill levels! I took the CCW course with TJ and it completely exceeded my expectations. If you want to get high level training, experience handling a firearm in an array of situations, understand your legal and moral responsibility as a gun owner/ccw holder, and have fun all at the same time, just call TJ at Allsafe! You won't regret it! read more

I have taken 7-8 classes with TJ and have learned something new every time. Not only have I become a better instructor, but I have become more proficient with my firearms. I would always recommend AllSafe for anyone seeking to become an instructor. read more

TJ and his team are top notch! I took the basic handgun class and it was very informative, fun and serious. Safety was also a key focus throughout the course. The basic handgun is good for newbies and veteran shooters who want a quick tune up on their skills. (Ill probably take it again for fun! And take some new people). I also took the CCW certificate 2 day course. This too was very hands on and really prepared you to get to know your gun better. I would highly recommend you take any of their courses if you are looking to get to know your gun better, or if you need it for a certificate of some sort. Stay safe read more

I decided to try out the Basic Handgun course to take my friend who is interested in purchasing her first firearm. It happened to be a small class that night, but that worked in our favor. TJ has a very hands-on teaching style that allowed us to actively participate throughout the course. Even during the instructional portion you are up out of your seat learning proper posture and position and bringing a firearm up to sight. I am not a beginner but I still learned some new tricks and was not bored. This is a pretty fun class, and all of TJ's assisting instructors are so fun and helpful on the range. I can't wait to take another class. If you are looking for hands-on learning, or just a little extra practice & some friendly competition then this is a great course to start with. Can't wait to see what the intermediate class has in store. read more

Took several classes with TJ. I like his teaching style. His team is also really helpful. In short, I would recommend Allsafe Defense for anyone at any skill level who want to improve their shooting skill. I am ready to sign up for more classes with TJ. read more

One of a kind experience with super attentive coaches. I attended the allsafe basic handgun training this weekend and I enjoyed every minute of it. We got approximately five hours of training with handguns (+2hrs classroom) in an outdoor setting, and we tried eight different handguns by various manufacturers and calibers. Almost one coach to every person, it was a safe and fun way to receive instructions on the proper handling of a firearm. I highly recommend the coarse. read more

Whether you are new to shooting or consider yourself an advanced shooter, TJ @Allsafe Defense System offers some of the most comprehensive training available in Southern California. Worth every dollar you spend for the class. Information is broken down into small portion so you can learn, digest, and master the lessons. Highly recommended. read more

TJ's resume speaks for itself - He's a trainer of trainers - He's on the Orange County Sheriff's recommended trainers list. Your search for a trainer is over. TJ @ Allsafe Defense. read more

I can only praise this business and its leader, T.J. I have been comfortable with every single class and if I ever waivered, I was made comfortable by staff. I started as a beginner and am getting more comfortable as I become competent with each class. The man is simply an expert in his field as he is in his teaching. I can't think of a single criticism at all, which is saying something for this critical thinker. I am confident that you will never find a better instructor than T. J. Take a chance and sign up; you won't regret it! read more

I took the NRA PPOTH Instructors Course last weekend. TJ was awesome. he runs a great course, covers everything you need to succeed. is patient and very helpful. He had fantastic assistant Instructor for the live fire portion of the course on both days. I always felt safe while on the range and we had numerous awesome learning experience to complete our task properly. We were offered to come back and teach with him to further enhance our skills at no charge. What a great two days. I learned a lot and look forward in taking further courses with this group, even though I don't live near them. Price was extremely fair, classroom was conducive to learning and we had plenty of breaks for our personal needs! Thanks TJ. :) read more

Tj and his staff are the best! They walk you through the basics first and then they have you practice more advanced skills. I came out very confident just after the first basic course and I am ready for a more. Their prices are really good too! Thanks for everything Tj! Looking forward for the intermidiate course. read more

I've been training with TJ for almost 14 years now. He's straight and to the point and I always learn something in his classes. In the shorter 2 hour classes, he explains, demos and then gets students right into the shooting and doesn't waste time. I highly recommend taking ANY of his classes. read more

The CCW Night and Advanced CCW Challenge are two of the best handgun trainings I have ever participated in. You will be challenged to react to different scenarios and perform under simulated stress. These are a must for any CCW licensee. read more

Attended a class here yesterday. Everyone was helpful, offering positive feedback and instruction. Looking into joining the Ladies Shooting League. Love the idea of lead and coffee. read more

I took the CCW Night refresher course, to review and practice skills that I do not get to use on a regular basis. The course was informative and fun at the same time. It shows you what you need to work on to stay up to speed on Gun handling out of a holster. TJ and the other Instructors were great and easy to work with. Nothing high pressure about the class, just good informative information and gun skills for you to use outside of class if needed. Again! great job guys! read more

Excellent information. Very organized and efficient. TJ does a great job in the range allowing for more than a basic shoot at cardboard. Strongly recommend. read more

TJ and Mike were great for my CCW renewal. Engaging but efficient at the same time. TJ communicates well and has a lot of information. You're never afraid to ask questions. There are no dumb questions. Location in Stanton is a little difficult to find, especially at night. But range is very nice and clean. Will be taking another class from TJ. read more

I bought my first gun a little over a year ago. I've been shooting every week since then and now own eight handguns and rifles. I've learned a lot from my friends who have been shooting for years but I wanted to get some formal training. TJ and his staff of instructors could not have been more attentive and caring. They all made sure that the entire class understood every point we learned and they all offered suggestions on how to improve our stance, grip, trigger use and aiming. You will leave the basic class with a skull full of new ways to do things, the correct way to do things. The teaching style is relaxed and focused. I found the time flew by during the class and I can't wait for next month so I can take the intermediate class. Many thanks to TJ and all the instructors for the awesome class today. I'll be back! read more

Tj is an awesome instructor, he makes the class fun and makes you use your brain to help better yourself! I highly reccomend them for classes! read more

Took the personal protection in the home course and really enjoyed it. I learned a lot of new concepts that I didn't think much about before. TJ was extremely knowledgeable as well. I would definitely recommend trying out a course here. read more

I was initially hesitant but decided to go anyway and I am so glad I did. The program was extremely informative and educational in so many ways. Not only will I go back for more training (I am a beginner) but I will highly recommend this class to others. A BIG THANK YOU to all staff and volunteers who were so helpful, supportive and patient. read more

I highly recommend this class. Tj is an incredibly knowledgable and experienced instructor. The detail and thoroughness of this class is top notch. Even if you think you're experienced in self defense, you will learn a LOT from this class. I took the instructor training class and If I can be half the instructor he is I will be super stoked! read more
