In my many years of shooting, competing, seeking instruction and training with some of the best instructors possible, while teaching hundreds of students, and carrying a firearm daily, the value of finding the occasional incredibly talented teacher is a reward and a treasure I have learned to be extremely thankful for. That discovery of such an instructor came the day I first met Eddie Todd while attending one of his Tactical and Executive Protection Firearm Seminars. His knowledge of survival skills in the use of a firearm is simply incredible and makes itself obvious in his teaching skills. Attending his course was like finding the missing part of a puzzle that helped in completed many of the questions I had accumulated through those years of my experiences. His style of teaching and quality of information was invaluable to me. Taking Eddie Todd’s courses and experiencing his intensive tactics and skills was definitely a highlight of my years of training. I highly recommend attending his training courses if you are searching for the “effective truth” in firearms instruction. Eddie Todd has my enthusiastic endorsement and respect.

Eddie is a true professional. Not only does his vast resume speak for itself, but Eddie also uses his keen senses from being a professional photographer to spot little steps most would not see and is able to articulate in a way everyone would understand. I truly always felt safe in his weapons training and highly recommend you select Eddie Todd for all your training needs.

I have trained with Eddie for almost two decades. His approach is to connect with each person based on where they are in the self defense and firearms development. From a brand new student to those with more experience, Eddie can help them advance. His professional resume provides the technical background to cover many scenarios.

Eddie has faithfully trained our Security Team at 1025 Church monthly since September of 2019, only missing a few months because of the COVID lockdown. Our team of 20 have benefited greatly from his law enforcement and military experience. Eddie is very thorough and knowledgeable and has been a great help to us!
Scott Hupp, Security Team Lead

Great training. It was done in my home, one on one, which then was tailored to my needs. Very informative and helpful. The trainer was very knowledgeable and I was impressed by his professionalism. I highly recommend this training.

Eddie Todd is one of the most knowledgeable people I have ever met or worked with in the Special Operations and Law Enforcement environment. His wealth of knowledge and experience is complemented with an empathetic gentle demeanor that instills confidence in his students.
Any interaction with Eddie, be it on the firing range, in the mat room or in a classroom is an excellent opportunity to learn from a man who has been there and done that, yet is still a humble genuine person who cares. Five stars all day long!

Our agency recently hosted Eddie Todd for an Active Shooter Training Module at our yearly conference. Very informative and hands-on. Excellent information and a great instructor.
We look forward to having him present more training in the near future.
