  About This Course:
  

  What do you do if your family member, friend, or co-worker suddenly experiences a medical emergency? Do you know how to access the situation and provide treatment prior to the ambulance arriving? Can you keep them alive until more definitive treatment is available? Many medical emergencies can result in fatality before the ambulance arrives.

  Understanding a few key treatment options will allow you to increase the chance of survival. Knowing what to tell the medics when they do arrive will help reduce their time on scene, allowing the patient to arrive at the hospital quicker. Many first aid courses focus on what to do in the event of trauma, but don’t adequately prepare people in the event of non-trauma medical emergencies.

  This course will cover what to do in the event of:

  • Scene Preparation

  • Dealing with Bystanders

  • Asthma Attacks

  • Seizures

  • Strokes

  • Allergic Reactions

  • Heat Casualties

  • Diabetic Episodes

  Equipment Required:

  Pen and Paper for Notes

  Prerequisites:

  None

  Special Notes:

  Open to ages 14+ with a parent.

  This course is designed for students of all levels.

  About This Course:

  The shotgun is one of the most misunderstood weapon systems, but also one of the most versatile. While many people have used a shotgun to hunt, or to shoot cans, proper utilization in a defensive situation is much different. Ammunition selection, how to change ammunition mid fight, strengths and limitations, extra shell placement, are all things that must be considered to get the most out of the weapon. We will cover various techniques for deploying the shotgun in different scenarios to allow the operator to get the most out of this tool. If you are considering having a shotgun as part of your home defense plan, or you are a patrol officer who wants to get better at its utilization, this is a vital course for you. Regardless of how many rounds you have fired at your local range or while hunting, you will learn how to use your shotgun in real world situations.

  Equipment Required:

  • Tactical shotgun, pump or automatic, gauge does not matter

  • Method to carry extra shells (Side saddle preferred… stock saddle, sling strap, belt pouch, etc are all fine).

  • 75 rounds of number 7 or 8 birdshot

  • 5 rounds of 00 buckshot

  • 5 rounds of slugs.

  • Ear and Eye protection

  If you do not have a weapon, you can use one of ours (simply pay for the ammunition).

  Prerequisites:

  Solid understanding of firearm safety

  Notes:

  Course is open to those 14+ when a parent attends

  About This Course:

  Although the most probable engagement distance in the real world will be under 25 yards, there are times when probable isn’t actual.  It could be a hostage situation from an extended distance, it could be an active shooter down a long hallway, or it could be someone outside using cover to prevent you from closing the distance.

  Course Topics:

  • Long distance pistol fundamentals
  • Stability positions and how to properly utilize them
  • Movement between various ranges
  • Point of aim versus point of impact at various ranges

  Required Equipment:

  • Duty / Everyday Carry Handgun
  • Iron sights or red dot
  • At least 2 magazines
  • 200 rounds of ammunition (we will likely shoot less)
  • Everyday Carry Holster (No SERPA)
  • Knee/Elbow pads are recommended but not required

  All participants should bring ear and eye protection and dress appropriately for the weather.

  Required Prerequisites:

  Defensive Handgun Level 1 or equivalent

  Special Notes:

  This course is not a highly physical course, but participants should expect to be moving and getting into various positions (kneeling, seating, prone, etc)

  This course is open to ages 14+ as long as a parent attends.

  About This Course

  In today’s world, trauma doesn’t just happen on the battlefield or in hospitals—it happens in our neighborhoods, homes, workplaces, and schools. Natural disasters, violent incidents, personal loss, and other distressing events can leave everyday people feeling overwhelmed, frightened, or isolated. When someone we care about experiences trauma, it’s natural to want to help—but many of us don’t know how to respond in a way that’s truly supportive.

  This course was designed to fill that gap.

  This course is an empowering 8-hour classroom-based training that teaches everyday people how to be an effective source of calm, compassion, and stability in the aftermath of a crisis. You don’t need a degree in psychology to make a difference—you just need the right tools, understanding, and approach.

  Participants will learn how to recognize signs of emotional and psychological distress, offer practical support without causing harm, and avoid common mistakes that can unintentionally deepen trauma. Whether you’re a parent, coworker, friend, teacher, or simply someone who wants to be better prepared to support others in difficult times, this course gives you the skills to step up with confidence.

  This training is not a replacement for professional mental health care—it’s a bridge. A way to help others get from the moment of crisis to a place where healing can begin. And along the way, you’ll learn how to take care of yourself, too.

  Topics Covered:

  Understanding psychological trauma and its immediate impact

  The principles of psychological first aid (PFA)

  How to communicate calmly and effectively with someone in distress

  Providing support without pushing, judging, or retraumatizing

  Identifying red flags that indicate the need for professional help

  Setting boundaries while offering help

  Recognizing and managing your own stress responses as a helper

  How to support children and teens after a crisis

  An open mind

  Pen and paper

  About This Course:

  Most of us know how to protect our physical safety—but what about our psychological well-being? Emotional abuse, gaslighting, manipulation, and narcissistic behavior can be just as damaging as physical threats, especially when they come from people we can’t easily avoid—coworkers, partners, family members, or authority figures.

  This course is an empowering 8-hour classroom-based training that gives everyday adults the tools to protect their mental and emotional boundaries, even in environments they can’t escape. Grounded in current research but presented in plain language, this class helps you recognize red flags, avoid psychological traps, and respond with clarity and strength.

  You’ll learn how to stay grounded in the face of toxic behavior, how to protect your identity and values from erosion, and how to choose the safest and most effective path—whether that means adapting, confronting, or exiting the relationship entirely. You don’t need a psychology degree to defend yourself—you just need a clear understanding of how manipulation works, how it affects your brain, and how to take back your power.

  Whether you're navigating a difficult workplace, a challenging family dynamic, or a painful personal relationship, this course will help you stay strong, stay sane, and stay in control.

  Topics Covered Include:
  

  Understanding emotional manipulation and abuse

  Narcissistic traits and behavioral red flags (non-clinical)

  Gaslighting, guilt-tripping, and coercive control tactics

  How trauma bonding and fawning responses work

  The psychological cost of staying—and leaving

  Boundaries that hold up under pressure

  Communicating with manipulative people without becoming a target

  About This Course:

  Classic Design. Modern Skill.

  There’s a reason the revolver has stood the test of time. Iconic, reliable, and surprisingly versatile, the revolver still holds a respected place in the world of personal defense.

  You’ll leave this course with a deep respect for what the revolver can do—and the skills to make it work for you. Whether you're dusting off a family heirloom or carrying a snub-nose for personal defense, this is the class that bridges tradition with tactical readiness.

  • Proper grip and stance specific to revolvers
  • Understanding single-action vs. double-action operation
  • How to run a revolver under stress
  • Combat reloads with and without a speedloader
  • Managing recoil and follow-up shots
  • Maintenance tips to keep your wheelgun running
  • When and why a revolver outperforms a semi-auto

  Required Equipment:

  • Revolver Handgun – Caliber does not matter
  • Speed strip, speedloader, etc.
  • Holster (No SERPA Retention Holsters).  A very basic holster will work
