Ask yourself - Are you prepared to use your firearm properly and effectively in a defensive situation?? If you're not sure, how can you find out BEFORE your skills are called into question?? You can begin by attending this Introduction To Defensive Shooting Fundamentals training!!

Topics Covered

The USCCA's Women’s Handgun & Self-Defense Fundamentals series consists of three separate firearm training courses which build upon each other. This series of training modules provides a welcoming, knowledgeable, and supportive instructional environment for women who are new to firearms, who wish to refresh their skills, or who wish to advance into defensive firearm training.

In this third and final module of the USCCA’s “Women’s Handgun & Self-Defense Fundamentals” series, returning students will revisit the foundations of handgun safety and firearm basics including the 4 Universal Safety Rules and we will develop and build on shooting fundamental skills.

In the classroom we will cover mindset, use of force, cover vs. concealment, using voice commands, marksmanship vs. defensive shooting, drawing your firearm from various positions & locations, the importance of practicing with a purpose, and being armed with children.

On the live-fire range, we will revisit properly addressing firearm malfunctions and introduce drawing from the holster, shooting on the move, using cover, shooting from retention, shooting from unconventional positions, and acquiring and maintaining the proper mindset for self-defense with a firearm.
