Our experienced, dedicated cadre of professional instructors is here to assist you towards becoming a competent and efficient protector of yourself and those around you. Our classes cater to students of all skill-levels and experience; whether you have never touched a gun or carry one as part of your daily profession. 

We currently offer training in several disciplines with more on the way! Each training track is designed to build and funnel the student towards their chosen training path.   

Training has no destination, and we would be honored to be a step in your journey.

Training Tracks

Pistol Training

Texas LTC

Shotgun Training

Carbine Training

Ladies Training

Medical Training

General Training

In addition to all of our more specific training tracks, we also offer training that is designed to round off your knowledge and capabilities. these "general" classes will help to fill in training gaps and several of them place you in realistic scenarios to test your mindset and skills; and they will definitely influence both you thinking and training in nearly every other discipline we offer. 

Our ladies-only training path takes our standard courses and offers them just for the girls, but with a few specific additions as well. All classes are designed, modified, and taught by a certified female instructor to make sure you're as comfortable as you can be. 

Our medical training program provides the knowledge and skills you need to know how to help others in many emergency situations. It culminates in dynamic scenario-based training that includes Stop The Bleed® and CPR/AED/First Aid concepts, while introducing a balanced, data-informed approach to first aid evaluation and care.

Our shotgun training track is designed to provide the confidence and skills for you to choose and know how to sue a shotgun for defense, specifically inside your home. 

Our carbine training path covers multiple common platforms and begins with introduction and safety. You can then progress through to more and more advanced skills culminating in scenario-based training with live opponents.

Our pistol training program begins with fundamental safety, moves into shooting basics, and ends with advanced shooting skills. Whether you use handguns for defense or competition, you'll find a place here.

Our License to Carry track involves far more than simply attending the course to get your license. We offer training to build up your skills for the shooting qualification, even if you're new to shooting. We also provide several avenues of class attendance including online training, private lessons,  shooting-only qualifications, and requalification.

Our climate-controlled, well-appointed classrooms create a professional, yet comfortable learning environment. Within these classrooms, we have high-quality multimedia options and space for hands-on, practical learning. We can place mats and strike pads for unarmed self-defense, as well as simulated medical trainers for trauma and first-aid. With all of these options, we can ensure that students receive instruction that caters to their individual learning style. 

The second floor contains our 14,000 square foot scenario training area. Within the area we built a 1,100 square foot simulated home, complete with a living area, three bedrooms, a kitchen, a dining area, and a bathroom. We can stage furniture inside upon request for a more realistic environment. There is also a hallway with attached rooms that can easily simulate apartments or a hotel. There are additional rooms and hallways throughout the area.

Extending to 25 yards, our indoor shooting bay accommodates most self-defense style shooting. We can customize drills, par times, movement, or all three to create a learning experience tailored to your team's live-fire needs. Under the watchful eyes of our instructors, we allow timed-fire, holster work, carbine-pistol transitions, multiple positions and stances, barricades, and movement. Any of these elements can easily be incorporated into your package.
