Dear David and Karen,
Thank you for the excellent “Martial Arts for the Mind” stress training you conducted for our officers and staff.
Our department has been through a year-long training process and redefinition of our mission and how we work together. This kind of change can be profound, but also challenging. As it turned out, your program was just what I was looking for. It was ideal for supporting our new directions – especially taking responsibility for our behaviors and reactions, gaining mastery over mind, emotions, and body, increasing our awareness of the realities of others, and making good decisions under pressure.
You connected very well with the officers. They were engaged and involved, and afterwards, gave this training high ratings. That’s no easy achievement with a police audience.
The skills you teach are critical for success in work and in life. I recommend your work highly to other police and public safety departments.
Sincerely,
Mark Puthuff
Chief of Police
