Firearms safety and training. For women, by women.
Offering private one:one and small group instruction in the New Jersey area.
Safely teaching you to keep yourself and your family safe.
Our 3-session program is designed to focus on three separate areas of firearms training: Women’s Basic Pistol, Women’s Intermediate Pistol, and Women’s Defensive Pistol. Each class includes simulated fire utilizing the Strikeman Laser system. Optional 4th session of live indoor range fire with your instructor is available.
Women’s Basic Pistol
This 90 minute introductory session is all about learning the essentials and gaining that extra confidence and knowledge up front so you can be ready to take the next steps in your training. We begin this class on a clean slate, meeting you where you are in your journey, and helps explain firearms in a welcoming and empowering way.
Women’s Intermediate Pistol
This 90 minute session will dig a little deeper into topics you should know from Women’s Basic Pistol. We’ll take a closer look at types of firearms and ammunition, as well as learn about how firearms work. The drills we use will challenge your skills and will help you better understand firearms and safe shooting, so you can be more comfortable and confident with your training.
Women’s Defensive Pistol
This 90 minute session will continue to develop and build upon fundamental shooting skills. We will add more advanced layers such as drawing and reloading techniques, shooting on the move and using cover, but this course has a slightly different focus, as we will work on developing the right mindset for self-defense with a firearm. We’ll look at how we must be prepared mentally and physically. And we will begin to learn the differences between marksmanship and defensive shooting.
