Phoenix-based Reality Defense Training (R.D.T) was founded in 1994 by Troy Coe, the Southwest's leading self-defense authority. Founder Troy Coe has personally studied, tested, and refined all the techniques and teaching methodology of R.D.T. during his 40 years as a professional defense instructor, with the singular focus on the creation and execution of teaching the finest and only survival-based self-defense system in the world, using curriculum-based teaching methods designed to bestow each student with the best Personal Survival Program (P.S.P.) possible to enable them to survive when the unthinkable happens.
Mr. Coe is uniquely qualified as an expert instructor, but his skill doesn't make him so unique. He has an innate understanding of each student's individual needs and style of learning. Reality Defense Training is an adaptive art form; Troy's method of instruction is also adaptive to provide the most efficient and effective training experience available.
Mr. Coe was inducted into the Martial Arts Masters Hall of Fame on August 11, 2012, where he was awarded the "Pioneer Award" for developing a fresh and unique approach to Martial Arts.
