This 8-hour class is designed to develop safe & well-rounded shooters. Defensive Handgun is an Intermediate Handgun for Self Defense that has you moving, shooting, and problem-solving. Learn the essentials of non-standard positional shooting (Yoga with Guns!), critical movement skills, engaging from a seated position, and partner drills. Emphasis is towards drills and scenarios that simulate having children or family as part of a deadly force encounter and how to manage them to keep them safe. This class is a fast-paced yet detail-rich program. Those wishing to work from concealment are welcome.
