Defender Series Outline

Congratulations on your stepping up to becoming your own First Line of Defense.

My guiding principle for everything I teach is:
“Confidence Through Competence”
(you know you can do it because you have done it, and done it well)
This is why I teach the way I teach.

before coming to your first class, review this video which is meant to help you solidify and practice the five foundation skills of shooting.   5 foundation skills

You’ll want to have these locked into muscle memory before you come to the first class.

 

You’re already ahead of 95% of other gun owners in making the choice to get some serious training to be a better defender. I’ll be partnering with you to make that a reality.
