Tim Larkin – TFT Foundation Series

Target Focus Training
The Foundation Series 2016
“Unarmed Self-Defense For Extreme Situations”
Welcome to the newest evolution of what has been called, “the most devastatingly-powerful, scientifically-proven self-defense system in the world today”.

Along with my Master Instructors, we’ll show you simply, with plain English and crystal clear instruction how to quickly stop any attacker dead in his tracks by inflicting crippling pain from injury to easily-damaged body parts…

… body parts that can’t be strengthened and are equally vulnerable, even on the biggest of brutes.

You’ll learn to do this by using simple, intuitive movements you can instantaneously and automatically recall and do… even if… you’re non-athletic, small or out-of-shape.

Here is what’s including in the package:

For the first time we’ve uniquely broken this product into 2 distinct parts.

Part 1 is the actual “Live Class” video. Consisting of 6 DVDs, you’re right there on the mats to watch the detailed training interaction of instructors with the class.

You’ll learn TFT’s proprietary approach to “Target Assembly” and “Free Practice,” hear live Q&A, see what works & doesn’t, watch instructor correction of participants, and much more.

Other times, you’re a fly-on-the-wall, listening to “…explanations that would befit a trauma specialist…” as Mark Cheng, Columnist and Contributing Editor for Black Belt Magazine and Director/Sifu for the Chung Hua Institute in Los Angeles noted after attending a live TFT class.

Here’s a description of each “Live Class” DVD and some, just some of the tips, tricks, secrets and fight-ending TFT methods you’ll discover:

Live Class, Disc #1:
The Mechanical Facts Of Violence
Introduction by Tim Larkin, TFT Creator and Founder

Why athletic ability, size, speed and strength is not a necessity to win in a violent encounter. You’ll learn how to use space and body weight to tip the playing field with bad guys in YOUR favor.
How TFT differs dramatically, (and is actually safer to train), than other systems that employ a “last man standing” training philosophy! (In fact, safety is a by-product of TFT.)
Who the most wildly-effective people are at using the tool of violence! (They’re not highly-trained martial artists, wrestlers, or boxers. In fact, most have no training at all.)
The secret to breaking down the human body and making it non-functional almost instantly, ending the encounter on YOUR terms. (This is important because, most violent encounters only last 5 seconds.)
How TFT mimics beginning firearms training… or… why it’s slow, steady and silent! (People understand this with firearms, because the consequences are dire. But they tend to throw it out the window and blast full-speed ahead when training without a weapon. That’s wrong, and you are going to learn why.)
Live Class, Disc #1:
The Mechanical Facts Of Violence
Chris Ranck-Buhr, Master Instructor

The little-known secret to breaking the human body with your bare hands!
Why we don’t train you to talk yourself out of situations or run away. (Not that you shouldn’t ever do these things, but there’s a specific reason and easy explanation for why we don’t bother to train you to do either one.)
Why it’s actually harder to teach TFT to adults—especially American adults—than children. (This “quirk” holds the master-key to you getting maximum results.)
3 reasons why we go slow—VERY slow—in training! (And it’s not safety, although TFT is incredible safe to practice.)
Live Class, Disc #2: live class disc 2
Initial Target Assembly
Target Assembly — Eyes

The intent you should have when going after a thug’s eyes. (Most people get this wrong… and lose a huge advantage, while giving the attacker the upper hand.)
What you absolutely must do to actually injure the eyes. (If you get this wrong, it is wasteful and dangerous. Many people have—as a last resort—tried to incorrectly injure the eyes of their attacker while being strangled and ended up in the morgue.)
Why you should never “aim to miss” while training. (Of course, you can’t make contact with the eyes. But… you’ll see how to “stay on target” safely.)
Two reasons why the best position for attacking the eyes is while your assailant is on the ground.
What is meant by “the step is the strike” and why you need to tattoo this on your brain!
Live Class, Disc #2:
Initial Target Assembly
Target Assembly — Ring of Neck

The “holy trinity” of throat strikes. (WARNING: These can all be lethal.)
Three ways to strike the neck when a person is on their hands and knees. (You also have 2 different striking surfaces you can use.)
How to ensure your bodyweight is always fully into any strike! (By the way, the universe and laws of physics could care less if you’re nearly all muscle or have 40% bodyfat, if you strike right, every ounce of you will go into causing an injury. After all, why do you think football lineman put on as much weight as possible… to the point of being technically obese?)
Why we don’t teach hand strikes… and… what to use instead. (It’s a superior striking surface and far tougher to take you out of the fight.)
Live Class, Disc #2:
Initial Target Assembly
Target Assembly — Groin

Two results you want from a groin strike. (Almost everyone gets this wrong, because it is not about damaging genitalia. And gender makes zero difference.)
Why you think of “cleaning off your cleats” and “kicking the stump” when striking the groin. (This is key for two reasons, (1) causing injury to the attacker and, (2) injury-avoidance for you.)
Why—when you are on the ground—you always want to think groin, Groin, GROIN!
Why you never want to worry about hitting hard… and… what two things you should really be focused on to increase your chances of causing debilitating injury to your attacker.
Live Class, Disc #2:
Initial Target Assembly
Target Assembly — Ankle

How to put an attacker on the deck quick as a whistle. (This is far easier, effective and smarter than trying to man-handle someone to the ground.)
The exact 1 square inch target area you want to strike on the ankle both from the inside and the outside!
The secret behind “crossing the ‘T’” with your skeletons. (This is critical to rapidly injuring your assailant.)
The four most bullet-proof ways for you to strike the ankle and send a thug a message he messed with the wrong guy.
Live Class, Disc #3:
Free Practice & Additional Target Assembly
How To Free Practice

7 things you already know how to do that will cause debilitating, non-functional injury to a bad guy.
Three things you should focus on that make it most likely you’ll get an injury that will take your attacker OUT of the fight, which… is always your #1 goal. (Not one of these is any kind of fancy technique.)
How to determine when you should turn your back and “get the hell out of there.” (This is not about running away, but about knowing when you’re done and it’s safe to leave.)
How firearms training is key to showing you the correct way to free practice.
Live Class, Disc #3:
Free Practice & Additional Target Assembly
Target Assemble — Solar Plexus

How to find the solar plexus every time… no matter whether your attacker is standing or on the ground.
The two-fold goal in injuring the solar plexus when your attacker is on the ground… and… the 2 ways to strike it for maximum hurt factor.
How to spear the solar plexus with your “skeleton” for maximum injury. (There’s a simple wall exercise that shows you that you already know how to do this.)
How even the smallest 105-pound-woman can wreck a 240-pound-man! (Believe it or not, it’s true. And you’ll understand why when you see the video demonstration.
Live Class, Disc #3:
Free Practice & Additional Target Assembly
Target Assemble — Knee

Why you must always have prior injury before attacking the knee.
A simple exercise that automatically sets you up for causing injury to the knee of an assailant.
How striking the knee from the back gives you two injuries for one!
What you must keep in mind to avoid injury to yourself when training sideways knee strikes.
How to easily find the target area for the knee from any position you may be put in.
Live Class, Disc #3:
Free Practice & Additional Target Assembly
Target Assemble — Lower Margin Of Rib Cage

The advantages and disadvantages of this target area… and… how to maximize fight-stopping injury to thugs.
How to attack the “false ribs” which are much more vulnerable than real ribs.
My BIG WARNING about the “when” and “where” of violent attacks. (Ignore this at your own peril.)
Two ways to strike the lower area of the rib cage when your attacker is lying on the ground.
The three keys to causing real injury to the lower margin of the rib cage. (Leave any one of these out and you might as well just slap him. It’ll have about the same poor result.)

 

Live Class, Disc #4:
Fine-Tuning Your Free Practice
Build-A-Strike

How to strike with your full bodyweight and generate 3 1/2 times more force than using your limbs alone. This is the secret to beating bigger, faster and stronger attackers.
The problem with training only high-velocity strikes. (Once you understand this, you’ll understand why we train “silent and slow” to download the moves into muscle memory FAST.)
4 simple steps to building-a-strike from the ground up for maximum effectiveness.
How the Magic Red “X” automatically puts you in the perfect place for delivering maximum power and causing devastating injury with your strikes. (This is a game changer… and… although it sounds mysterious, it’s actually a simple concept that you’ll master in a few minutes.)
A simple metaphor for multiplying your striking power. (If you keep this in mind, you’ll always deliver more force to your target.)
How to injure an attacker by using his own bodyweight against him.
Live Class, Disc #4:
Fine-Tuning Your Free Practice
It’s Not Magic

Why TFT instruction feels unnatural at first… and… why that is a good thing!
The reason you don’t want to fight, look for fights or train for fighting when it comes to preparing to survive and thrive in violent encounters.
The BIG problem with technique training… which… is what everyone else out there teaches.
Live Class, Disc #4:
Fine-Tuning Your Free Practice
We Live In A Physical World

The truth about violence in the real world… and… how to be prepared for it at all times… whether on the street, a dark parking lot, or your own home!
Why trained combat sport fighters are sometimes surprised when they actually injure someone… and… what this means to your success in a real-world, violent confrontation with a thug.
A simple mental process that will help you avoid dangerous situations. (This is the first—and most important—thing you should do to avoid violence.)
How to lose your fear of weapons — specifically your fear of weapons being used on you.
Four secret steps to getting better, faster at TFT. (Actually, these secret steps can be applied to speed-learning anything in life.)
Live Class, Disc #4:
Fine-Tuning Your Free Practice
Maximize The Physics, Minimize The Physiology

Two universal concepts that explain the phrase “maximize the physics, minimize the physiology.” (Once you understand these concepts, you’ll have the “golden key” to causing debilitating injury. This also explains how a small woman can take out a vicious, violent, monster-sized street thug. Sounds unbelievable, I know, but you’ll see why it’s the absolute truth.)
How to always change everything in your favor immediately if you’re in a violent situation. (This never fails and should be your #1 objective.)
Why you never want to think of violence as “fighting”… but rather… a “contest of cruelty.” (I know this sounds harsh, but the truth isn’t always pretty… and if you don’t play with the same rule book as a criminal, you’re toast.)
Live Class, Disc #4:
Fine-Tuning Your Free Practice
Perfect Practice

The topsy-turvy truth of how real-life encounters force you to perform worse, not better. (Most people think they’ll be more motivated and try harder or hit harder… when actually… the exact opposite is true.)
Two negative factors of biological fear that cannot be controlled. (You must learn to “work” with these factors instead.)
How to judge the correct training speed. (Trust me, after training thousands upon thousands of students, I guarantee you train too fast. And that can get you killed in the street.)
Why our most experienced guy in using TFT in the real world trains super-slow. (Unfortunately he’s had to put more people down than anyone I know using my system. But in fact, he’s the slowest-training instructor we have.)
Live Class, Disc #4:

The Brain Can Only Go Where It’s Been Before

What you can learn from TFT Master Instructor, Chris Ranck-Buhr’s two near-drowning accidents that can save your life in a violent encounter.
How to bypass psychological panic to avoid the “freezing response” when confronted by street punks.
Why your goal—psychologically—is to view violence from a winner’s standpoint… that is… the asocial angle. (Until you get there, you’ll be on the loser’s side automatically.)
The #1 thing people who have been trained in TFT—and had to use it in real life—say happened that allowed them to use it automatically and successfully.
The first thing you always do in TFT that makes it so effective. (Not only is it the first thing, it’s the only thing. You just repeat it, if necessary.)
Live Class, Disc #5:
Tools — Knife, Baton & Firearms
Knife

Why we often refer to weapons as “tools” (regardless of what the weapon actually is or does)… and… how all the prior DVDs gave you all the base information you need to work with weapons.
The only two correct ways to hold a knife. (Chances are you’re currently doing it wrong.)
How much advantage a knife gives you versus bare hands. (Hint: It’s not as much of a benefit as you think.)
The two ways people really stab each other in real-life violence when they are effective. (No fancy techniques here… just down-and-dirty, get it done, work. By the way, this comes from FBI data collected on the prison population.)
How a knife limits your target areas! (You need to know this because, there are actually LESS target opportunities—that truly matter—than without it.)
Live Class, Disc #5:
Tools — Knife, Baton & Firearms
Knife Demo: The Coin-Flip Of Violence

Why “knife defense” doesn’t work in real violence. (You’ll see a video demonstration that conclusively shows the truth about using traditional knife defense techniques… and… why it NEVER works out. This is what makes prisoners so effective.)
Another video demonstration, with two examples that make it glaringly clear what effective knife work is about. (WARNING: One example is extremely graphic, but the one where the guy actually dies looks like a flesh wound.)
Why the person with the shortest achievable “to-do” list wins whether he has a weapon or not. (NOTE: You obviously want to be this person and you’ll discover how to do it automatically.)
The one and only thing—knife or not—that ends all violent situations and trumps everything else. (You’ve got to get this right, because nothing else matters.)
Live Class, Disc #5:
Tools — Knife, Baton & Firearms
Baton

The only two baton strikes you need to be effective… that is… cause non-functional injury that could make a thug turn tail and run! (You’ll get some simple analogies that make these automatic and unforgettable in your mind.)
Three major advantages the baton has over a knife.
Why you must remember the baton is not “magic.” (In fact, once you learn TFT principles, you could have one in your hand and not need to use it at all to end an attack.)
Why you never use your hands as the driving force of a baton strike… and… “what” you should use instead.
Live Class, Disc #5:
Tools — Knife, Baton & Firearms
Firearms

Two physical principles that must be present at the same time to quickly end a firearm confrontation. (In reality, these must be present to end any confrontation whether a weapon is involved or not.)
Why you must never focus—or grab onto—a weapon… any weapon! (This is even more important when facing a firearm.)
The #1 mistake almost everyone—trained or not—makes when a gun is involved. (Many policemen make this mistake too…)
An additional step you need to add into “gun defense” versus other weapons or hand-to-hand. (It’s crucial to keep from getting shot… but… don’t worry, it’s extremely simple.)
live class disc 6Live Class Disc #6:
Multi-man and Grabs, Holds & Chokes
Multi-man — Initial Practice

The #1 physical (and also mental) trait you need to develop when facing more than one attacker. (And why you should ALWAYS assume multiple attackers.)
The surprising reason penetration and rotation into one attacker removes you from harm’s way from a secondary attacker.
How to simultaneously strike and do a figure-8 scan of the room for other threats. (Sounds hard, but it’s really quite an easy, natural movement once you’re shown how to do it. It’s like having eyes in the back of your head once you know the secret.)
Why (and how) you take each attacker out of the fight sequentially, one-at-a-time.
The three main “rules” of multi-attacker confrontation that allow you to dominate the situation!
How one Black Belt magazine contributor equated this multi-man section of beginning TFT instruction to a high-level Aikido master’s super-secret technique. (He had just attended the other Aikido training and the master’s black belts—some who’d been with him 17 years—said they’d never been taught this technique. Yet it’s the one we teach from the very beginning.)
Live Class Disc #6:
Multi-man and Grabs, Holds & Chokes
Grabs, Holds & Chokes

How we are all hardwired to grab onto someone that grabs onto us… and… why it’s the absolute wrong thing to do.
The mindset you want to have anytime someone grabs you. (This is how you counter your hardwired natural inclination to grab them back… and… how you end the fight, quickly.)
How to relax and cause an instant injury to an attacker if they grab you. (This works from the front or the back… it makes no difference.)
The easy way to cause instant injury while you are in a headlock. (Front or side headlock, it doesn’t matter, because this is position independent.)
A “unique-to-women” consideration/position and how to get out of grabs, holds and chokes. (This is size/strength independent… for you and/or the attacker.)
Live Class Disc #6:
Multi-man and Grabs, Holds & Chokes

The four criteria the law uses to determine if you acted in self-defense… or not.
A startling statistic that reveals how many people die a day from getting punched and hitting their head on the ground.
The only three, 100% legally-safe approaches—if you have a choice—to ending confrontations.
How your TFT instruction can actually save you from facing serious, permanently life-changing (for the worse) criminal charges. Bad guys should go to jail… NOT YOU!
The #1 rule of violence that separates the winners from the losers.
Three reasons why TFT works for anyone and everyone while other training systems do not.
How TFT makes you the ultimate concealed-carry weapon at all times… everywhere you go.
