Jonah Fontenot

I started training Muay Thai (Thai Kickboxing) students in the early 90s then later trained soldiers while in the US Army. I continued expanding my skill set when I got out of the Army. Now I run Hawkeye PSD based in Prescott Valley, Arizona.

I attended SECFOR Int'l bodyguard school, and was trained as a sniper. I served as a Fireman/EMT in the 90s. Before that I was a Muay Thai kickboxing instructor and judo competitor. I'm currently TCCC/STB certified. I have a degree in psychology and am in a master's program studying Homeland Security and Emergency Management.

I grew up surrounded by violence and have seen the affects it can have on a person, family, and community. My experience and training helps me teach my students how to deter and overcome threats of violence.

I offer personal defense and safety programs for adults and children of any physical ability and background and can customize courses according to the needs of my students. These classes can include hand to hand defense, mitigating confrontations involving weapons such as knives, guns, bats, et cetera, and engaging multiple attackers.

If you have a teen learning how to drive consider my road hazard awareness class to help prepare your son or daughter for the realities of the road. I cover common dangers including breakdowns, carjackings, natural disasters, road rage, large animals, and weather, along with vehicle care and inspections, legal concerns, and the importance of sobriety and situational awareness.

Pets and children are generally welcome in my classes so long as neither bite. Masks are not allowed.

I do not train Socialists, Communists, Leftists, current members of street gangs, or anyone who threatens our nation's security. There are no exceptions.
