As a former Police and Military firearms instructor who has also taught hundreds of Civilian marksmen both men and women to use firearms, I can state that Joe Toluse is one of the finest instructors that I’ve known in the last 35 years. Joe, as the owner of and instructor for Threat Management Training, teaches philosophies and techniques which are sound and which are based on his real world training and experience. Joe instills confidence into his students by showing them that he is dedicated to their individual needs in the area of safety and survival and he helps his students achieve a winning attitude. Joe’s street-wise tips and his understanding of mental, physical, and psychological problems that the student needs to over come, makes Joe a top rate instructor. I highly recommend his training and his courses to anyone looking for a true survival edge in today’s world. Richard A. {Rick} Garcia Sr. President TriTechTraining/MissionFirst!®
I
have had the distinct advantage of taking several of Joe Toluse's
courses from Concealed Carry and Use of Force, through Basic Handgun
up to and including Advanced Handgun Techniques. Joe's teaching
style is straight-forward, common-sense oriented and results in his
students, regardless of experience or skill level, acquiring more
confidence and understanding the responsibilities that come from
protecting themselves and their loved ones. Joe's dedication to his
students is shown not only in the classroom and range but through
his dedication to keeping his own knowledge and skills current and
his continued responsiveness to questions that arise days, months,
even years later. Joe keeps his classes small, resulting in
important one-on-one attention. Joe's classes not only emphasize
safe handling techniques and skill development but also changing
those habits and choices we make each day that can put us and those
we care about in unnecessary danger. Joe can show you how to
evaluate "situations," determine what action is needed, and how to
act to protect yourself and your loved ones. His instruction
includes the important and often overlooked considerations of the
aftermath from taking action. From Joe, I have gained a much
greater sense of confidence in taking personal responsibility for my
protection. Whether you are thinking about obtaining a permit, a
novice looking to improve your knowledge and/or skills with
Sandra Brewer
I have taken both Defensive Handgun
classes offered by Joe Toluse at Threat Management Training, LLC.
The courses were thorough and well planned. Class sizes were kept small
so that each student received a great deal of individual attention. Joe
is an excellent instructor. I highly recommend his classes to anyone
interested in learning essential defensive shooting techniques. I have taken several courses from Joe Toluse in my
pursuit to learn defensive firearm skills from some of the best schools
and nationally recognized instructors I can find.
I
had the pleasure to work with Joe under the Lethal Force Institute flag
(various advanced courses including StressFire Instructor) as well as my
own rifle program. Very early on, Joe’s particular attention to
details indicated his seriousness about the subjects of self-defense and
the art of handling and mastering firearms. Joe’s program intends to
present his students with the full picture of firearm ownership and
their use in self-defense including the legal and ethical use of deadly
force. Joe’s commitment to his students is evident in his dedication
to keeping his knowledge and skills updated and based on solid
foundations. Georges
Rahbani
Joe is supportive, explanatory and
encouraging. You can tell that he enjoys sharing his knowledge of
firearms with others. His classes are thorough and interesting
and one walks away with a good grasp on what owning a firearm
entails. It's not just about pulling the trigger. It's
about learning techniques, taking the responsibility of knowing your
local laws, and acquiring a deep respect for them. It's about
taking the knowledge you've obtained and practicing, practicing,
practicing, then practicing some more.
TMT
classes can give you the tools needed to defend yourself in certain
situations. Outcomes can never be certain, but by practicing the
techniques that you learn and knowing mindsets and statistics that are
discussed, the advantage can be yours.
Colette Manning
Proper
self defense training can make the difference between surviving or
not surviving on the street and in the courtrooms. I have been
privileged to Study, Shoot and Train with Joe Toluse, Director of
Threat Management Training, LLC., at several Firearms Training
Classes. I’ve been "behind him on the line" in an
Instructors capacity during Advanced Training at the
"Firearms Academy of Seattle" and have been his Student
during Certification as a "Lethal Force Institute Stressfire
Instructor" under Massad Ayoob’s Tutelage.
He
has the admirable quality and inherent desire to "Keep People
Alive", perhaps due to his experiences in Viet Nam. He is
forcefully driven to pass on to his Students the continuing
education needed to prevail in a life threatening encounter. I
firmly believe his instruction will benefit Shooters from Novice to
Advanced.
I
consider him a Capable and Worthy Trainer, A Dedicated Student, A
good Friend
