E3 PERSONAL DEFENSE

and Safety

Empowering our communities to live safe and fulfilling lives!

Chris and Joy Allen are parents, pastors, and community leaders who believe that passion leads to purpose! Married in 2002, they have overcome a number of life's obstacles and take every opportunity to share lessons learned with anyone who will listen.

Chris is a Marine Corps veteran and certified Range Safety Officer (RSO). Joy is a clinical research professional and certified firearms instructor. Together they share a love for people. Through community outreach and ministry work, they have witnessed far too many victims of violence, crime, ignorance, and opportunity.

So in March of 2017, with her husband's support, Joy decided to match her passion for helping people with her ability to train others in personal defense strategies, thereby founding E3 Personal Defense and Safety, LLC. 

The concept is simple. Through seminars, classes, personal coaching sessions, consultations, and home parties, E3 will EMPOWER you to live life without fear or intimidation. You will receive the EDUCATION needed to live each day with confidence. And you will ENJOY every step of the journey!

ABOUT US

For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind.

- 2 Timothy 1:7

Self-defense is not just a set of techniques;

it's a state of mind, and it begins with the belief that you are worth defending.

TRAINER AND CONSULTANT

Let me introduce myself! I am Joy Allen, a wife, mother, pastor, counselor, corporate professional, entrepreneur, author, and community leader who is passionate about educating and equipping others to live safe, enjoyable, and empowered lives! For many years, I have dedicated my life to training and mentoring others to become effective leaders in business, the church, and society. However, I've found that even the most successful and faithful citizens are generally ill-informed about basic safety, crime prevention, and personal defense, especially in minority communities.

My journey with formal firearms training began in 2015. Since that time, I've learned a great deal and met a number of phenomenal people within the gun community. As I continue building my own skills and knowledge, I am determined to share the same with others.

I specialize in providing world-class safety, situational awareness, and foundational firearms training to communities where such resources are scarce by partnering with churches and community groups, women's associations, small businesses, government agencies, and non-profit organizations. When you enroll in an E3 Personal Defense training course, you are not only equipping yourself but also investing in someone else's opportunity to access information that may not otherwise be availed to them. You have my personal commitment that your experience will be a professional, safe, and enjoyable step toward your ability to self-protect. Together, we can transform potential victims into victors by instilling the proper knowledge, skills, and attitude for safe and enjoyable living!
