Topics Covered

We very strongly believe that the fundamentals skills required to run a handgun safely and effectively are not divided between "basic" and "advanced" skills.  Instead we practice what some term "an advanced application of a basic set of skills".  
The act of firing a handgun involves mostly simple physics and doesn't take into account the "human element".  We then place our focus on the integration and the "why" we should work to gain the greatest understanding possible of our specific interactions to create a repeatable performance with an understanding of the desired outcome.  
In short, we want to demonstrate an "on demand" performance capability that meets or exceeds each individuals expectations.

Expectations and Outcomes

You should expect to be challenged.  A key consideration that we push very hard is "control" so we will push hard to get you to shoot faster and at more precise targets, to help learn a level of control.  The level of control we work to build helps create a valid level of confidence in your own skills.
