About This Course:
This course is part 2 of the Sidney Reilly Experience. You do NOT have to have attended part 1 prior (this is a standalone course)
Situational Awareness will only get you so far. How do you know if someone is following you, or has identified you as a target for their criminal activity? Criminals will often employ surveillance to determine if you are someone they want to attack, and if so, when you are at your most vulnerable. Knowing how to detect and evade surveillance could be the key to avoiding becoming a victim
In order to properly avoid surveillance, you need to know how to conduct surveillance. This course will also cover the proper techniques in vehicles and on foot.
This course directly relates to our counter-kidnapping course and is a required prerequisite.
This course is extremely helpful for anyone planning on travelling, or for anyone who has reason to believe they may be targeted domestically.
This course will cover the following topics:
While this series is labeled as a "Spy" series, the lessons taught are directly applicable for all people in their daily life.
Due to the nature of this course all individuals will be subject to a criminal background check.

Course Description:
Have you taken our Defensive Handgun Level 1 and ready for a fast-paced day to take your skills to the next level?
Research and our own experience in our Force-on-Force classes show one of the most common injuries in a fight are injuries to the hands. If you take one of your hands out of the fight, can you still properly operate your weapon?
This course will take the skills you learned about drawing your weapon, reloading, and clearing malfunctions, and force you to do all these things with one hand out of play. In addition, we will work on drawing from compromised positions and introduce you to the concepts of reactionary shooting (shooting through the draw without a sight picture).
In addition, this course will combine Moving & Shooting skills, where you will learn how to effectively shoot while moving.
Standing still in a gunfight will get you killed. You are either pressing the attack, retreating, moving toward cover, or moving toward an objective. Being able to manipulate your weapon one handed, weak handed, and while moving are vital to your success. This course will make extensive use of footwork, weapon control, and shot placement while on the move.
Defensive Handgun Level 1.
If you have attended a defensive handgun course at another facility where you are familiar with drawing from a holster and clearing all malfunctions you will be accepted.

We want to think our church is a place of refuge where we can safely grow a relationship with our God, family, and fellow congregation. Unfortunately, churches are quickly becoming one of the most targeted places for violence.
Many churches have started safety or security teams, but they often lack the ability to give proper training and guidance to the team members. In too many instances the church board simply finds the person in the congregation who happens to be a police officer, tags them to develop a security plan, and then opens it up to volunteers. While this is certainly better than having nothing in place, this approach can leave many holes in a fully comprehensive security plan.
Getting a full team together to offer training has issues. People have complicated schedules. Training facilities are limited. Training courses may offer some of the base skills, but they are not tailored to the church environment.
While we offer full advisement, planning, and training packages to churches, we found many other instances where individual safety team members understand it is “up to them” to get the training required. This course will help individuals who have been tasked to serve their church in a security or safety team role to be better prepared. In addition, several topics will be discussed they can take back to their organizations to help implement a more comprehensive plan.
Situational Awareness before, during, and after the service
De-escalation techniques for church environments
Firearms and other weapons considerations
Safeguarding the offering and financial contributions
Protecting the children
Medical issues, fires, weather events, and other safety emergencies
Legal liability
Notepad and Pen
Notes:
This course is primarily aimed at individual safety team members but will help guide the basis for an overall church plan.
This is a fast paced course with many topics covered
Follow-on training is available to go deeper into each topic

Many people think they know how to operate a rifle and shoot accurately. For most, this has included taking their rifle to a range and shooting at paper targets until they could consistently hit a bull’s-eye. However, this is NOT fighting with your rifle. Can you rapidly deploy your rifle in a stressful situation, clear any malfunctions, and make successful hits all within 3 seconds? If you are new to the AR platform, or have only used it for target practice, this is a vital course. This a basic level course, but even more experienced weapon operators will gain additional experience in using the weapon for defensive situations.
This course covers proper stance and grip, and covers topics such as point-of-aim versus point-of impact, various methods to sight your rifle, reloads, and weapon malfunctions. Discussion will include different optics, slings, and other rifle accessories.
Required Equipment:
Good quality magazine fed weapon (AR platform in 5.56/.223, 9mm, 6.8spc, etc.)
Approximately 100 rounds of rifle ammunition
Rifle Sling
2 extra rifle magazines and a method to carry those magazines
If there is something you do not have, inform us in advance and we can arrange for you to borrow.
All participants should bring ear and eye protection and dress appropriately for the weather.
We do have AR rifle’s available for rental including ammunition (Please Inquire for current prices).
This course is open to ages 14+ as long as a parent attends.
Active Shooter Situations can happen anywhere. Schools, Malls or Nightclubs.
Police will respond, but in the meantime how many deaths will occur? If your child, spouse, or loved one is in the path of gunfire, will you respond to stop the killing?
Having the will to confront the shooter is one thing, but doing so in a way that you prevent innocent deaths, including your own takes a specific skill set. Knowing what to do when law enforcement does arrive is vital. The 540 degree principal, threshold evaluation, movement toward threat, and friendly link-up are just some of the skills you will learn in this training.
We will start with an understanding of where these events might occur, how to respond, and end with force-on-force drills to let you practice each skill.
If you are a CCW holder and routinely carry your weapon, this course is a "must attend" for you.
If you are a first responder, this course will give you valuable insights in how to respond yourself if you are off-duty.
Fully applicable for Civilians, Fire Fighters, LEO, and EMS.
If you are someone who thinks it is as easy as just shooting the bad guy, you definitely need to come to this course.
If you think you will always get shot by the police in this situation, you definitely need to come to this course.
No live fire ammunition required. All force-on-force equipment will be provided
This course will run from 10-5 on Saturday and 10-4 on Sunday. If you are interested in lodging at discounted rates, contact us for details.
If you have a rifle, chances are you also have a handgun. Being able to properly use the 2 platforms in concert with each other is a vital skill.

When cell phones are out of service either because of coverage or damaged towers, radios become the only method of communication. The problem is even the best radios have very limited coverage with terrain, buildings, foliage, and lack of repeaters. Knowing how to get the most out of your radios, setup support antennas, and get reception can be vital in emergency situations.
This course will go deep into signal and antenna theory, teaching the student how to maximize range and clarity of radios when other forms of communication is compromised. Based on the military protocol for setting up communications this course will be useful to those who deploy to natural disasters, use radios for hunting or hiking expeditions, or who are trying to be a knowledgeable prepper. You will come away with knowing what equipment to buy and how to get the most out of the equipment you have.
Radio Communication Principles
Wave Modulation
Signal Theory
Antenna Theory
Terrain and Obstacles
Communication Systems
Voice vs Data Transmission

Why This Course:
If you are an outdoor enthusiast who enjoys going to new places to explore, hunt, camp or hike you can find yourself in unfamiliar terrain. Take a shortcut, hit a trail closed marker, or need to escape weather, or chase that deer a little further than you expected and next thing you know you can become lost. Even if you aren’t worried about being lost, the ability to read a map and confidently move around gives you more options when you are exploring new areas.
If you are a member of a Search and Rescue team, understanding terrain and reading maps are vital skills. In addition, you never want to become another victim in an already difficult situation. If you are preparing for your NASAR SARTECH 2 certification, Land Navigation is one of the most failed portions of the practical test.
Equipment Needed:
This course will go into the evening for the night navigation and start again early the next morning. Please plan on sleeping close to the training facility or you will be extremely tired day 2.
Open to ages 14+ with parent attendance

This is our standard basic handgun course, offered in a ladies only setting. While we believe intermediate and advanced training should be co-ed, sometimes just starting out it is good to be in a setting where many of you have the same types of concerns and challenges when carrying your firearm. This course seeks to offer that environment.
If you are considering (or have already) purchasing a handgun, it is vital you get training in proper operation. While your friend/spouse/parent can help, quality professional training can make an extreme difference in your ability to safely and effectively handle your handgun.
This course is for those new to the handgun platform, new to their particular gun, or those who simply want to refresh the fundamentals.
For those who are new to handguns and are considering taking our defensive handgun level 1 course, this will lay the groundwork for you to successfully get the maximum benefit.
If you already have a handgun, please bring it to the class. If you do not, we offer a rental program where you can try a variety of handguns to become better informed on what to purchase in the future.
This course is a mixture of classroom discussion and live fire on the range.
For those renting a handgun please complete the rental registration at time of class sign up. You can purchase your ammunition day of class at current market rates. We do NOT mark-up ammunition or make a profit, you simply reimburse at our cost.

In the domestic US, we often take for granted our easy access to high quality medical care. If you get injured, you simply go to the hospital or doctors office and get yourself fixed.
However, if you are hiker, adventure sports participant, or can imagine a time when access to the ER might be limited, understanding how to close a wound can be a vital skill. Although a short class won't teach you how to close a wound worthy of a plastic surgeon, you can learn the basic closures required to help prevent infection and further damage to the wound site.
Topics Covered Include:
When to suture
Types of suture
Types of closures
Infection control
You will need to purchase a practice suture training kit prior to class. If you do not order your own, you can purchase one from us when you get your ticket.
