    "The class in and of itself was very informative. Dawn was both knowledgeable, as well as approachable, and very communicative. She was also very patient and unhurried, despite the fact that we were on the firing range while I tested a number of pistols on a freezing cold and windy day. In the final analysis, it was a superb class, and I don't see how it could possibly gone any better than it did."
