Regarding
Our Training Philosophy and Practices:
Our training
staff is composed of professional and experienced coaches and we are students
ourselves.We believe in treating everyone respectfully and as adult learners.
Our coaches participate in the learning process and we use a building block
approach to solidify skills before moving toward more advanced concepts.We
do not believe in "check the box" training nor do we believe in
"lowest common denominator" training. Individual assistance is
always available. Those who are not safe and conscientious with their firearms,
those who are not willing to be open-minded, receive new information and
try new concepts, and those who are not capable of keeping their ego in
check should not enroll in our trainings.
Prerequisites
and Physical Requirements for Training:
- An operator should
be able to load, unload, and reload their firearm in a SAFE and CONTROLLED
manner. Muzzle discipline and awareness is paramount.
- An operator must

fire their weapon during prolonged drilling. You must be able to get
up and down from standing, kneeling, and prone positions, as well as
move

be able to maintain mental, physical, and emotional self discipline
