As a law enforcement trainer, Jose holds several instructor certifications, covering critical disciplines such as defensive tactics, applied patrol response, and de-escalation strategies. With a background encompassing 35 years in various martial arts disciplines, he is well-versed in the intricacies of personal safety and self-defense.

Rooted in best practices from law enforcement and the medical profession, the course has since trained nine thousand individuals and has been incorporated into behavioral health studies at MASSBAY College in Massachusetts.
