"EMPOWERING THE RESPONSIBLY PREPARED CITIZEN"
As proud American citizens we are incredibly fortunate to enjoy a wealth of rights and freedoms! With these amazing privileges comes an equally important responsibility. It's essential we hold ourselves accountable for our actions. Freedom isn't just about doing whatever we want; it's about using that freedom in ways that uplift ourselves and those around us. Remember, the state of our lives reflects the state of our minds! When we embark on a journey of self-improvement, we positively impact not only ourselves but also everyone in our circle—the ultimate domino effect! Our instructional sessions are in no way ordinary! They are transformative personal growth experiences that foster a vibrant community through learning and camaraderie. While they are crucial for new and novice firearm owners, we believe that even intermediate and advanced owners will thrive from our "responsible mindset" approach to personal protection and firearm ownership.

In-person learning enables interaction with fellow students and instructors in a safe controlled environment. This setting offers hands-on learning opportunities through observation and practical application. Direct engagement is crucial for achieving better clarity and understanding compared to online training.

This innovative program is a series of classes that blends combative concepts, defensive firearm training, and personal defense strategies to empower responsible citizens to make vital threat assessments and responses. You'll discover when and if to go "hands-on," to utilize your firearm, or employ less lethal tools—all while focusing on prudent and legal "real-world" responses to real challenges. Join us to learn how to create a more safety conscious environment, improve de-escalation strategies, and explore conflict avoidance techniques, and the all-important post incident responses including law enforcement interaction.
