    "This class was amazing and exceeded my expectations. The instructors were phenomenal and presented the class with expertise along with the proper dose of humor without taking away from the importance and seriousness when it comes to handling a gun. The pace and length of the class was perfect. Attending an all women's limited size class provided a more relaxing, relatable and safe feeling environment. The live fire and dry fire exercises has increased my confidence and accuracy. I now pick my gun up with confidence...not fear. Thank you so much."
