Attended the training yesterday at Texoma Cowboy Church. It was well worth it !! Our instructors Philip and Mikey showed enthusiasm and a passion for teaching the mind set and what it takes to protect your Church Family.
This was a very eye opening experience with very knowledgeable instructors. I would recommend everyone take time to equip themselves with the knowledge for unexpected situations.
This Training was very realistic and intense. It showed you what really could happen during a church service and we were taught how to be ready. Highly recommend this program to other Churches and Ministries!
The scenarios really put you in a mode to be alert as to what really could go down at the drop of a hat. The instructors were very knowledgeable and did a very good job start to finishexplaining, teaching and making sure we got the full affect.
Great instructors and awesome classes! Once again... Focused Fire Training did not disappoint! Just finished Tac Pistol... Had a blast and added knowledge and more tools to the toolbox, and showed me deficiencies that I need to work on!
Professional from the time you walk in the door. Every question was answered and you leave feeling confident with knowledge you learn. Even though you are there to learn it is definitely any thing but boring.
My husband and I just got out of the "Surviving an Active Shooter Seminar with Travis in Smyrna, TN and it was great! Travis did a phenomenal job and the Seminar was very informative. We strongly suggest attending and also going on to further training classes with Protect His House. Time very well spent!
Our church participated in training by PHH today. The training was very informative and helpful. Thank you Travis and Philip. I highly recommend this training to any church security/safety team.
I can’t say enough good things about bout training today. Travis did a wonderful job helping our church security team. We came out of that training with so much more knowledge than when we began.
