React Defense Systems Phoenix

"React Defense teaches you the skills you'll need to defend yourself against single and multiple attackers. This is the place where law enforcement and military go to to learn the most advanced street defense. You'll also get in the best shape of your life."

"This family, this training and your classmates here give life lessons that are unmatched. I started here wanting to feel comfortable in the mountains, in the city, in this world alone. I received much more than that. Not only can I now walk in peace but everyone in this training can as well. From grandparents to grandkids, everyone here learns how to defend themselves and their loved ones. You start FROM learning the basics, stance, footwork and how to always protect your face. You end with a community that only wants to better themselves AND you. We need more sheep dog in this world, and the Ackerman's can teach you exactly how to be one. This is a school for your second set of insurance, the insure YOU give YOURSELF."

"Firearms Safety Course was a blast! If you currently carry a concealed firearm, use a firearm or even have even just considered using firearms, there is something to take away and learn for all! This class was great for beginners to novice users. Again, every day folks from all walks of life including students, parents, teachers, and first responders-people just like you and me! Learn how to safely operate and use a firearm, and if you carry, learn how to retain the firearm, should someone try to take that away from you. Most importantly learn how to avoid and deescalate first, and when you should and should not use the firearm to defend yourself or loved ones. Lastly, the addition of having Justin come in and provide guidance and answering questions-clearly defining, we do in fact have legal representation in our corner! I’ve said it before- Tactical Black-they all make the training fun and interesting-cover different scenarios-teach you the correct way, and in a safe and clean environment and seriously no gimmicks here! All trainers are encouraging and seriously care about your safety and well-being. They were all very aware of each of our actions, and were there to get us on track and provide guidance through the entire class. Thank you Jay for what you do, and a huge thank you to your crew and all who worked with us- Josh, Tony, Andrea, and one other gentleman, that I can’t recall his name, however… I’ll just go with Mr. Biceps. Last but certainly not least from the Chandler home team Michael!"

"The level of professionalism at all three REACT locations is outstanding. The instructors are very skilled and knowledgeable, and also accommodate students of all experience levels. I have trained in other martial arts and other facilities, and this facility exceeds expectations in so many ways. In three years of training, I have progressed a lot, and continue to learn more and challenge myself every time I train. The seminars and fitness classes are also amazing."
