Do you carry a gun for self-defense? The basic CCW class while it meets the states requirements, it does not prepare you to carry a gun every day to protect yourself and your family. This class is the foundation of armed self-defense training. From stance to grip to physical shooting technique, this class will help you get your body to work with your gun instead of against it. You will learn which intuitive skills work best with what your body will naturally do while under the stress of a violent encounter. Whether you’re looking to train on the basics of putting bullets where you want them to go or building your skill for rapid acquisition and engagement of targets in a real-world scenario, you’ll find it in Defensive Shooting Fundamentals.
