Cari Morris says, "ACE Security was both professional & personal. I was impressed by the level of instruction. The instructor, Chase, did an excellent job of pointing out both strengths and weaknesses. I learned what was working as well as what next steps to take to be as safe as possible. Security is always important but as the parent of a special needs child I was thankful for the extra time and insight of his expertise."See more

Reviews for Surprise self defense instructors on Thumbtack

From Melissa F.

Take Control Self Defense

Take Control Self Defense

This course is extremely informative and useful. Although I am female, and this course is most helpful to females, it is also full of tips, tricks and strategies men can use as well. The physical portion is easily adapted to the learners abilities, existing skill and knowledge level and does not require strength or previous martial arts experience. The moves are easy for anyone to learn and to utilize regardless of size or strength or skill level. Sensei is very good at teaching this information and very good at identifying strengths and weaknesses and helping the student overcome the weaknesses to better deliver the self defense moves. I have had previous martial arts instruction and feel that this instructor is very suited to that role and also very knowledgeable about the subject matter. I highly recommend this course and this instructor
