What You'll Learn
Whether you're new to firearms, looking for a refresher, or ready to build on your existing skills, this course provides a safe, supportive environment to develop confidence and competence with a handgun.
No prior firearms experience is necessary. This is a thorough handgun safety and fundamentals course. By the end of the session, you’ll gain the knowledge and skills needed to handle a firearm responsibly — all while building confidence and comfort shooting at the range.
This course combines classroom instruction with hands-on practice. The course begins in a comfortable private classroom setting, followed by live-fire training at the range.
My goal is to help you build a strong foundation in firearm safety, proper technique, and responsible firearm ownership—both on and off the range.

What We'll Teach
Defensive Shooting Fundamentals
This lesson will continue with the basics, including a very visual overview of what we call the “building blocks” or the fundamentals for accurate and safe shooting. Within this lesson, Michael Martin will explain the differences between the skills required for being a good “marksman” at the range, and the skills that might be required to save your life if you are ever the subject of a violent attack.
