About.

Personal Safety Seminar:
 
 Our Personal Safety Seminars focus on changing the way we view our lives and the environments we find ourselves in.  Our seminars are not martial arts based, but are focused on integrating self protective practices into everyday lives. 
 

Established in 2016

True Defense was founded by Seth Martin, who has spent several years training and teaching people in the area of safety and personal protection. Seth found that most of the self defense training that he had received throughout his career focused on the "fight," but never addressed or answered the question: "how did we get here?"
Through researching evidence based training methods and his experience as a law enforcement officer,  out of this came True Defense, LLC.   

Our Goal

To educate and empower people as they tap into their abilities to protect their families and themselves. Our programs are about learning martial arts or fighting styles, but instead is about understanding practical situational awareness, threat recognition and options for protective measures.
