Seven Questions About Self Defense

lets Get R.E.A.L. About Ownership...

I believe that every citizen is RESPONSIBLE for their own personal safety.  I also believe that the process of learning should not be filled with fear and paranoia, but should leave you feeling EMPOWERED, AWARE and excited about LEARNING new skill sets.  

Let's Get R.E.A.L. About Shooting Sports...

Recreational shooting referring to just putting some rounds down range and Competitive shooting sports like IDPA, USPSA and 3 Gun are all excellent ways to keep your firearms skills sharp and fresh.  They are not meant to take the place of professional training, but sure are fun and offer opportunities to learn things about your gear, your guns and ultimately about your strengths and weaknesses. 

Let's Get R.E.A.L. About The Statistics...

  • 1 in 6 women and 1 in 33 men will be sexually assaulted 
  • College age women are 4 times more likely to be sexually assaulted
  • Women have 1 in 4 chance of experiencing a violent crime
Sexual assault has fallen by more than 60% since 1993.  Because of education and awareness  2,546,420 Americans were NOT victims of sexual violence.

Why Should I Take A Class? 

Woman are considered easy prey for criminals, the truth is that ANYONE can be consider prey based on upon the "signals" you send to out.  The best defense against becoming the target of a crime is prevention!   Being  aware of your surroundings,  being mentally prepared to act, and equipping yourself with the proper tools of defense is essential.  If prevention fails, your only chance is to FIGHT BACK.  You must know HOW to fight back.  Now you must know how to BE YOUR OWN FIRST RESPONDER.

What My clients Say

My family and I recently took our first training on handguns and shotguns from Julianna and John.  Unlike most things in life, all five of us agreed this was the best family event we have had (no easy task).  Very thorough, very professional, a great value, and extremely well done.  It was evident that they have passion in the topics and a real interest in working with people. I would absolutely recommend them, two thumbs up!

"John and Julianna are the best. The range and the class were run in a very professional way. If you are apprehensive at all about taking this class don't be. I was a renewal and if I had known about them the first go round I would taken my initial CHL with them. Hope to see them on my next renewal. I have numerous friends with CHLs; I will recommend you to them for their next class. YOU GUYS ARE AWESOME!!!!"

To illustrate what sort of person Julianna is, I'll tell my tale. 

I had signed up for a CHL renewal class to be taught at Ft. Hood. But the post had been slow in finalizing the arrangements for use of facilities there, so that class had to be cancelled. Seeing that I was close to renewal time, Julianna taught a special class, in the Cedar Park facility, just for me. She met me at the range in Florence, and then I followed her to Cedar Park. Her presentation was very well delivered, even though I kept interrupting, more than I might have had it been a full class of folks. :)

"I have attended 3 CHL classes in the past and I am a Master Rifle Instructor, US Army Distinguished Rifleman, and National Rifle Coach/Competitor.  So I know what I am talking about when I say the parts of your presentation I observed were, by far, the most professional I have seen for CHL training--good job!"
