This dynamic course is built specifically for women who carry—or plan to carry—a handgun for personal defense.

Description

Practical Defensive Training Designed for the Armed Woman

This dynamic course is built specifically for women who carry—or plan to carry—a handgun for personal defense. Blending classroom instruction with live-fire range drills, this course focuses on defensive shooting techniques that address the unique considerations women face when carrying concealed.

Students will learn how to effectively draw from various concealment positions, including purses, appendix carry, and other body-worn holsters. Training includes real-world defensive shooting scenarios, use of cover and concealment, movement under stress, and shooting from non-traditional positions—all in a supportive, women-focused environment.

This course is ideal for women who already have a foundational understanding of handgun safety and operation, and want to develop real defensive skills tailored to how they carry in everyday life.
