Violence doesn’t discriminate, but women face unique threats, distances, and decision points when it comes to personal defense. This women-only course is designed to give you the skills, mindset, and confidence to protect yourself and the people you love if the worst day ever shows up.
This is not a casual target-shooting class.
This is where women learn how to run a handgun under stress, make decisions under pressure, and respond decisively to a real-world attack.
Our Women’s Defensive Handgun 101 course creates a supportive, non-intimidating environment where women can ask questions, move at a productive pace, and train without judgment, while still learning serious defensive skills that work when it matters.
You’ll learn how to safely handle and operate a handgun, but more importantly, you’ll begin learning how to fight with one, from realistic distances.
This course is the starting point we recommend for women before moving into more advanced defensive handgun or concealed carry training.
