A.L.I.V.E. Active Shooter Survival Training

Mr. Julian,
My name is Liz Moreno.… about three years ago you came in and gave us your ALIVE training course… but I never in a million years thought that I’d have to use it.
On October 1st I was in Las Vegas at the Route 91 Harvest Festival... when all of a sudden I heard what sounded like firecrackers… Everyone immediately got down in a big pile… in that very second… your training popped into my head. I told my boyfriend, “We need to leave!”
I truly believe taking your training is what told me to run, which ultimately saved us - Thank you!

Thank you for the passion you have on this subject matter. I truly believe your message resonates with ALL ages, all people and saves lives. Your call to be situationally aware of our environment and your A.L.I.V .E response plan is as critical (if not more so) than the customary fire and earthquake drills we've rehearsed, I highly recommend your training for individuals as well as organizations large and small. I especially recommend your training for any and all leadership responsible for ensuring the safety of their employees, co-workers and loved ones. To do nothing in preparation for an active shooter scenario would be negligent.

Because of the numerous recent active shooting incidents, my management team was begging me to find suitable training for our company.

Your training was the answer. You captivated all in attendance on how to survive an active shooter event, and we realized how very little we understood about being aware and prepared if an event ever occurred at our location. Your presentation was very valuable to our group because you provided information and details on real life situations teaching how to respond and act. Your candid, honest approach was especially appreciated. As evidenced by the many questions during and following your presentation, everyone was actively engaged.

The ALIVE training was impactful. It really demonstrated how vulnerable we can be if we are not prepared. I am more confident than ever that we made the right choice in selecting Michael for the ALIVE training. The knowledge we gained is priceless.

First I bought the ALIVE book and shared it with my teenage son. Then I had all my employees take the training and wow! The information in the course is so empowering, one of my female employees said the thought of an active shooter scared her to death before taking the course but now she believes she not only knows what to do but has the confidence to do whatever she has to do to survive such an event. So powerful! I cannot recommend this training enough!

I consider myself LUCKY to have had the opportunity to take this course. Before taking the course I really hadn’t considered what I might do in the event of an active shooter situation. Having completed the course, I feel far more confident that I could survive and help others survive, and I know that I’ll be more aware of my surroundings moving forward. This really is LIFE SAVING TRAINING. Do yourself and your loved ones a favour and enroll right now.

I think the message is right on point. The mindset has to be dealt with right up front. When I was going into law enforcement, I had to deal with the issue of taking someone’s life before I was presented with that situation. That is a key issue that you drove home. Using members of the audience who said they couldn't take someone's life in an active shooter situation and making it real to them so that they realized they could was masterful!
With active shootings having occurred in churches, schools, malls, movie theaters, etc...everyone should take this course. It truly causes you to confront this in a realistic and appropriate manner.

WOW…Just WOW! I knew the ALIVE Course would be great but it exceeded my “greatness” expectation. Michael, seriously, I do not feel you really comprehend how impactful, relevant and outstanding your program is. ALIVE Active Shooter Training is not only going to save lives (e.g., Liz Moreno) but it is changing the landscape of active shooter training programs throughout the world. You not only nailed the topic but you nailed the presentation of it. Your passion is real, intense and laser focused and it cuts to the core of the importance of doing everything you teach to survive an active killer scenario. Your style, delivery and use of slides and videos is unequaled and you cannot improve on your training package and delivery! What you have developed is perfect! No one else comes close to your program—it is incredible and will save lives in the future. Well done, Michael!

In the face of mass shootings, many people and organizations get stuck as far as how to prepare for such an incident. Some people may be trained to do something but don't know why, others may understand why they must do something but don't know how. ALIVE Active Shooter training, empowers participants to take action and know why they are doing it. The content is on point and the delivery is nicely done to make the whole course easy to digest and apply.

It takes you step by step through some very difficult & disturbing situations and scenarios, but breaks them down into important lessons & takeaways. It is a hard but unfortunate necessary topic, that needs to not only be discussed, but proactively & effectively planned for. I genuinely feel better prepared now should I ever find myself in an active assailant situation.
