Client Testimonials For
Samirs Combat Reaction Personally, I have used Samirs’ training methods extensively.
Having been employed in the security services field for over four
years, I have dealt with, and diffused, many complex and potentially
dangerous situations involving unreasonable personalities using
tactics taught by Samir. Verbal communication and psychological
analysis are aspects which are emphasized in the training provided
by Samir, and both have become invaluable assets in many situations.
In closing, I wish to stress that Samir Seif is an extremely suitable candidate for the teaching of Use of Force, and the laws pertaining to it. Regards, Chris Riegert My name is Chris and I have known Samir for over 5 years, with almost 2 of those spent training with him several times a week. I met Samir when he was brought to the bar I was working at as a consultant to train the staff, and help us better handle the many problematic situations we had there. I was the typical rookie “bouncer” along with all the negative connotations and immaturities attached to that title. Through his guidance and training I was changed into a professional member of a Samir built security team, and eventually progressed quite far. I was promoted to Head of Security at two major establishments above 30+ staff. Samir’s training was mandatory for all our employees, and through his program we were able to drastically reduce both our number of, and severity of incidences. We quickly became the industry standard of excellence recognized by local police. I also became the assistant instructor for Samir in his Non-Aggressive Tactical Solutions program. From this position I not only got to learn more from Samir, but I got to establish a personal relationship to compliment our professional one. I was later hired by a large security firm in Toronto as a supervisor of over 200 security officers. My entire growth to this level is thanks primarily to Samir’s training and guidance. Samir has established a fool-proof system to apply Use of Force to the training of security personnel. His method strongly emphasizes a de-escalating rather than over-powering approach to problems, reinforced with seamless teamwork. He teaches one to control an environment through a strict rank-based order, establishing a strong rapport with clients, and above all a reliance on sound judgment. Violence is very unprofessional and is to always be avoided. However, occasionally there is no other option, and Samir’s students are professionally taught how to correctly handle these through proper technique, a team based approach, and with stress on creating the smallest disturbance possible. While martial skills are taught and perfected, the emphasis of the program is on non-physical control. Students are trained to be pro-active with speech and a strong team presence rather than reactive with the use of muscle. Samir is a very loveable character who instructs with a warm smile and humorous breaks to soften his serious message. He automatically earns respect through his lead by example style, his martial arts mastery, and his vast array of credible real-world experience. A student really absorbs the message when they know it has been perfected by someone who has been there, faced the problems, and learned the hard way what works and what does not. I have worked alongside Samir and learned from his example my entire career. His outstanding martial arts success while still running his school and serving his family is a testament to his driven work ethic. His character has inspired me beyond security training. Non-Aggressive Tactical Solutions will provide a perfect foundation to any security service. I hope this brief letter has provided you some insight into the character of this teacher. I would be happy to further discuss any details pertaining to my experiences with him. Chris Riegert May 3, 2008 Josh Fitzsimmons Dear Samir Seif: I wanted to write this letter to let you know how much I have both learned and enjoyed your lessons. I started taking your classes nearly two years ago and since then I have become much more confident with defending myself in nearly any situation. With the knowledge, training, coaching and support you have given me I have set forth goals for myself and have chosen a career path towards becoming a professional athlete fighter. With your guidance and my dedication and love for the sport I believe I am capable of making a good living as a professional fighter and also become a well rounded fighter. You have started and now lead my career as a fighter, with three consecutive wins and have given me so much more then I could describe in words. You have strengthened me, and I am grateful for the relationship we have. In addition, I am more than happy to represent Samir's Combat Reaction. Thank you so much for everything and please feel free to use this as a letter of recommendation, I would gladly discuss with anyone the great job you have done in this field of self defence and martial arts. Sincerely, Josh Fitzsimmons May 25, 2008 RE: Samir Seif – Perfect Martial Arts Instructor! To Whom It May Concern: To briefly describe myself, I’ve been in the insurance industry for over 5 years now and going into 6 years. I was a Claim Examiner for almost 5 years, dealing with various claims situation such as fraud, fires, accidents, bodily injury, and statement of claims. I dealt closely with defence counsels during the course of a statement of claim or bodily injury claims that had counsel assigned to them. I’m currently a Risk Services Coordinator and I provide advice on ways that business owners can minimize risk and protect them with providing proper coverage from financial loss resulting from fraud, automobile accidents, fire, theft, storms, and other events that can cause damages. I’ve known Samir Seif for approximately 5-7 years now and even when Samir didn’t know me, he was always very humble and respectful to people he didn’t know personally, which was me at one point. I know that Samir has been training in martial arts disciplines since about the age of 6 years old and was always interested in combative applications and in my eyes and for a fact has a great amount of experience in combative training and teaching as he’s been teaching combative applications for over 10 years now. I started training with Samir approximately over 2 years ago and I can’t say enough how much I enjoy training at his school and how much I’ve learned in that time. Everyone in the school is very humble which starts from Samir as our instructor, which you don’t see at other schools as I have acquaintances who have trained at other schools and seems that they always had to deal with bully’s…..that’s not a problem at our school. I don’t think, I know that Samir is the perfect candidate for
any martial arts/ trainer job. He’s very patient, humble, knowledgeable,
always keeping up to date and very clear with his instructions
during class. I guess you can say he’s very “user friendly” in
the way he teaches his classes. I truly feel very comfortable
and confident with the training I’ve received over the last couple
of years, which provides me with the correct knowledge of how
much force may be used in a given situation. May 1 2008 Rick Burn I have been a student of Samir for over 11 years. I first came to Samir after finishing school on a sports scholarship and decided to enrol in a martial art to try and keep a competitive edge. Not knowing that 11 years later I would be a senior student and developed such a close relationship with Samir. Samir's knowledge and dedication to his art and use of force action is obvious by just a glance of his resume. Since he was young Samir has been involved in not only learning and being a student himself, but teaching over the yearÆs form athletic wrestling, use of force and weaponry seminars, Muay Thai coach and developing combat reaction. It always amazes me that the knowledge and skill Samir possess he still finds ways to improve his skills and teaching ability coming to class with new drills, new ideas to enable his students to learn quickly and always be updated with the new training methods. Samir is also an instructor who if a student asks a certain question or reacts physically different to a technique, Samir will go home and research the answer or reversal and next class will demonstrate to his students. With all his skills and knowledge, the use of force techniques, training as a professional and teaching his student is not a job to Samir, this is his passion and love and would be a great candidate for a position. I can be reached anytime for any further questions or comments. Rick Burn
Samir has been an inspiration to me throughout the past few years.
Not only dedicated to his sport, but to helping others as well.
Both working for him, and training in his Use of Force Program
I have always had new knowledge and positive feedback from him.
Seeing him in the gym, he is always willing to lend his wealth
of knowledge to anybody who asks. Always with a positive attitude
he can brighten any person’s day. I have known Samir for four
years now, and every time I talk to him, I always walk away with
a smile on my face because of his positive outlook on life, and
the wise words he gives when I am upset or frustrated over something.
He truly is an amazing person with the best qualities, strength,
honour, and pride. “Samir Sandman Seif has enabled me to break through some aspects
that have been choking my potential. Through patience and hard
work I have again started to grow. I can't say enough about this
great man who has helped so many before me, smash down barriers
with integrity and sincerity. Thank you sifu for your understanding
and commitment in helping me reboot my life into one I can be
proud of. Mike Graham” March 12, 2010 “outstanding individual, teaches class with ease and logic, reponds
well to questions. Teaching technique very sequential and appliable...highly
