About THe owner

I’m Kimberly Taylor Judy, and my mission is simple: prepare people to act with purpose in critical moments—whether in life, business, or an attack.
With 20 years in the self-defense industry, a background as a federal police officer, and experience in private protective details, I’ve spent my career protecting high-profile individuals and training others to do the same. I know firsthand that true security isn’t just about physical skills—it’s about mindset, awareness, and decisive action.
I work with executives, professionals, and high performers who refuse to be caught off guard. My training is practical, strategic, and built for the real world—giving you the ability to respond with confidence when it matters most.


Why I Started Move with Purpose

Most self-defense training focuses on the wrong things—perfect techniques, flashy moves, or rigid formulas that fall apart in real situations. I saw a gap in the industry: people were being taught how to fight, but not how to survive.
After years in law enforcement and private protection, I founded Move with Purpose Firearms & Defense Training, LLC to fill that gap. My goal? To equip professionals with the real-world skills they actually need to protect themselves and their families.
Through my training, I help clients develop:

 Tactical Awareness – Recognizing danger before it escalates
 Strategic Movement – Knowing when to engage, evade, or escape
 Mental Resilience – Making high-stakes decisions under pressure

I’ve worked with thousands of individuals, and one thing remains true: preparedness is power. My promise is that you’ll leave my training stronger, smarter, and ready to act—because survival isn’t about luck, it’s about preparation.

Are you ready to move with purpose? Let’s get started TODAY!

Please know I recognize some clients may have sensitive spots from previous experiences in their lives. I recognize these experiences often bring about a natural apprehension to taking a defense course or to even discussing some topics. This is normal and natural. As a former victim counselor, I am well equipped to discuss the route that is best for a great training experience that allows my students to leave feeling empowered and able to find and confidently use their voice--rather than facing the world with apprehension and fear.

Book a Speaker Who Inspires, Empowers, and Equips

Did you know that feeling safe directly impacts productivity, loyalty, and overall well-being? Whether in the workplace, relationships, or community organizations, a sense of security is one of the most fundamental human needs.
But when uncertainty or fear creeps in, the mind and body react instinctively, assessing threats and making split-second decisions. Understanding this response—and knowing how to harness it—can be the key to resilience, confidence, and decisive action.
For over 30 years, I’ve spoken on stages around the world, and for the past 12 years, I’ve dedicated my work to Resiliency, Defense Tactics (both Mental and Physical), and Red Flag Indicators. My goal is to equip individuals and teams with the awareness, strategy, and confidence to navigate both everyday challenges and high-stakes situations.

Why Book Me?

✔️ Engaging & Relatable: I strike the perfect balance between Command Presence and Authentic Connection, ensuring every audience—big or small—walks away with valuable insights they can apply immediately.
✔️ Custom-Tailored for Your Audience: Whether you’re a corporation seeking a dynamic keynote speaker, a women’s group looking for an empowering event, or a business seeking a fresh perspective on safety and awareness, I deliver impactful presentations that resonate.
✔️ A Trusted Expert with Real-World Experience: With a background as a federal police officer, private protective detail specialist, and self-defense trainer, I don’t just teach theory—I share proven strategies that save lives.

Did you know, feeling safe directly increases productivity and loyalty? Whether in a relationship, at work, or a community based organization- the feeling of "being safe" is one of the most highly rated pieces of life that people seek. 

When feelings of unsafety creep in, the human mind and heart can do some incredibly fast assessing, and decision making. 

I have been speaking internationally for over 30 years. In the last 12 years I have dedicated my speaking engagements to specifically address Resiliency, Defense Tactics - both Mental and Physical, and Red Flag Indicators. 

I pride myself in being known for striking a balance between Command Presence and Relatable in all of my speaking engagements. No crowd is too big or too small for me to speak to. If you're considering a Motivational, Relatable and Engaging Key Note Speaker or a Trainer please reach out and lets see how I can best meet your groups needs.

You do not need to bring a firearm
to Conceal Carry Classes

As a former Federal Police officer, I can assure you, Firearms training is not one size fits all! Especially for females!  That is why I designed my company differently. It's imperative in today’s world and climate that you receive the training done in a manner natural to you! 
My firearms training will prepare you for any day-to-day situation where a higher level of defense is needed. Training with me means having opportunities to train for basic familiarity, your conceal carry, to a more proficient and advanced level with the same instructor- which means you get fluidity and an understanding of your natural abilities and learning style.

I offer various courses that will allow you to become better equipped to handle yourself and protect your loved ones should the need arise. You can begin with a Basic Handgun Familiarity Course or the Virginia Conceal Carry Course.  I love doing all women's classes (but absolutely offer training for all individuals) and am happy to work one on one with you. Let me know your needs and let’s get a class set today!
