    About This Course:

    While many people have learned Defensive Driving skills, few have learned how to be "Offensive" in their use of a vehicle. This term does not necessarily mean using the vehicle as a weapon, but how to really push the dynamics while on the street in a safe manner for the passengers and for other drivers. If you found yourself in a situation where your car has been surrounded, where you may be the subject of an attempted hijacking, or where someone is actively chasing you in another vehicle, understanding the full abilities of the vehicle will prove vital.

    This course was developed as an extension of the Emergency Vehicle Operators Course and High Speed Pursuit Training. It goes even further explaining how to not only control the car like taught in those courses, but how to actually utilize the vehicle to create safety for you and your family.

    • Evasive Maneuvering
    • Braking Techniques, including: ABS use and Threshold Braking
    • Varied Surface Driving

    About This Course:

    Have you ever observed how some individuals appear to handle stress, depression, anxiety, or trauma with greater resilience? Have you pondered why you or others sometimes feel trapped in cycles of negative thoughts and emotions? Are you aware of the connection between mental health and physical well-being?

    These phenomena find explanation in the realms of neuroimmunology and neuropsychology. Formerly attributed to inherent traits, we now understand these differences as products of individual neurological makeup. The exciting revelation is that the brain isn't fixed; it's malleable. By understanding and actively engaging with this plasticity, you can not only transform your thought processes but also reshape the very structures of your brain. These changes yield improvements not just in emotional and mental health but also directly impact physical well-being.

    This course is not a journey of self-help, motivation, or spirituality. Rather, it offers a rigorous exploration grounded in scientific research and evidence-based practices. Delve into the workings of the brain, how they influence various facets of life, and the actionable medical theories for effecting change. Regardless of your background or educational journey, you'll find value in this course.

    Topics Covered Include:

    Pathways of depression, anxiety, grief, and stress

    Mission focused mindset and delayed responses

    Resilience and mental “toughness”

    Mental / Physical interactions

    Breaking the cycles of toxic thinking

    Nutritional and pharmaceutical components of brain chemistry

    About This Class:

    Active Shooters situations are particularly demanding, because encounters are rarely ever the same. Responders are unable to envision and prepare for every possible outcome, so the ability to adapt rapidly to unpredictable circumstances is essential.

    Increasing the psychological pressure is the surprise nature of the events where responders are often caught in the moment. Decision making must be highly fluid because there is no time before making critical split-second decisions on actions. A breakdown in communications, an inaccuracy interpreting the situation, or an overly impulsive decision can easily lead to casualties.

    One of the most dangerous parts of responding to an active shooter decision is when an assailant is inside a room. In fact, in an urban CQB environment, even with well-trained soldiers, the casualty rate can often be higher than 50 percent. Bottom line, if we can avoid making room entry, it is usually the best decision.

    Threshold analysis in CQB is about using the doorway threshold as a strategic tool to gain an advantage over potential threats by maximizing situational awareness, controlling entry, and utilizing dynamic movement to maintain a tactical edge.

    Topics Include:

    • Scanning and Assessment:
    • Dynamic Movement:
    • Controlled Entry:
    • "Slicing the Pie":
    • Maximizing Cover and Concealment:
    • Communication and Coordination:

    Equipment Required:

    • Semi-Automatic Handgun
    • Holster (NO Serpa Holsters due to insurance regulations)
    • 3 Magazines
    • Magazine carry method for at least 1 spare magazine
    • Approximately 150 rounds of ammunition
    • Eye and Ear protection
    • Please equip yourself as you would carrying during everyday life. No battle belts, chest rigs, etc unless that is how you go the grocery store (police duty gear is acceptable)

    Prerequisites:

    Defensive Handgun Level 1, or equivalent training through us or at another recognized facility. You must have above average weapon safety understandings and muzzle discipline. Please contact us with any questions about these prerequisites.

    Notes:

    This course is a perfect compliment to our Civilian Response to Active Shooter, Fighting in Structures, and Dynamic Room Entry courses.

    This course is available to those 18 and over.

    This course isn't overly physical must you must have your brain engaged at all times.

    About This Course:

    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.

    Topics Covered:

    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

    Equipment Required:

    Notepad and Pen

    Prerequisites:

    None

    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

    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.

    Equipment Required:

    • Semi-Automatic Handgun
    • Holster (NO Serpa Holsters due to insurance regulations)
    • 3 Magazines
    • Magazine carry method
    • Approximately 350 rounds of ammunition
    • Eye and Ear protection

    Prerequisites:

    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.

    About This Course:

    The inevitable thing about being in a gunfight is that the goodguy can get hurt. Often that includes you getting hurt.

This course will help you prepare to do both.

    About This Course:

    The reality is most gunfights in the domestic United States will take place up close and personal.  The idea you will be shooting your adversary at 25 yards is usually a myth and a mindset which makes it easier for you to feel safe after going to the range and practicing your marksmanship aimed at static paper targets. Statistics show the majority of gunfights happen within 3 yards, and many within arms reach.  Some places will teach you to create distance from your adversary, but we teach if you find yourself in a deadly encounter to get close, interrupt their OODA loop, end the fight, and go home.

    This course will teach you how to fire your weapons without sights, quickly, in close, and with potential other obstacles in the way.

    Equipment Required:

    • Semi-Automatic Handgun

    • Holster (NO Serpa Holsters due to insurance regulations)

    • 3 Magazines

    • Magazine carry method for at least 1 spare magazine

    • Approximately 300 rounds of ammunition

    • Eye and Ear protection

    •  T-Shirt or Sweatshirt you don't mind destroying

    •  Please equip yourself as you would carrying during everyday life.  No battle belts, chest rigs, etc unless that is how you go the grocery store (police duty gear is acceptable)

    Prerequisites:

    Defensive Handgun Level 2, or equivalent training through us or at another recognized facility.  You must have above average weapon safety understandings and muzzle discipline.  Please contact us with any questions about these prerequisites.

    Notes:

    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

    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

    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.

    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. But don’t let its simplicity fool you—operating a revolver effectively requires a different set of skills than today’s more common semi-automatic handguns.

    Whether you're considering a revolver for everyday carry, backup use, or simply want to master a timeless platform, this course provides a solid foundation for safe, confident, and effective revolver handling.

    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.
