Training

From Awareness to Avoidance 

The Refuse To Be A Victim® program is not a firearms or self-defense class. It is a seminar that will help you improve your personal safety strategies and will provide you with valuable information that you can apply in every area of your life. 

I'm very excited to offer training that will help mitigate the chances of being in a situation where you need to defend yourself!
This class is a much needed addition for all self defense firearm training!

** If you are new to firearms, I HIGHLY recommend the NRA Basics of Pistol Shooting class!
This also meets the requirements for WI Conceal Carry Permit. 

A conceal carry permit is just a piece of paper that allows you to carry a firearm concealed.
You MUST become proficient in the use and care of a firearm.
After all, anything you use to protect yourself and your loved ones can be used against you.

TRAIN & PRACTICE - PRACTICE & TRAIN!

This class teaches the basic knowledge, skills, and attitude necessary for owning and using a pistol safely.

It also meets the requirements for obtaining a Wisconsin Conceal Carry Permit.

If you are a busy individual and do well in a self-paced, independent learning environment, the blended learning is a great option for you!

The classroom and book portion of Basics of Pistol Shooting can be completed on-line, at your own pace.

Once completed, you will receive a certificate of completion from the course which indicates you passed.

We will then meet at the range for the shooting portion of the class.

The course description is the same as Basics of Pistol Shooting.

However, the blended learning does not meet the requirements for WI Conceal Carry.
