Classes

Our classes all have the same goal—to provide knowledge and skill for students to make informed personal protection decisions. Small class sizes will give you extra one-on-one time with instructors and classes for different skill levels will encourage a comfortable learning atmosphere. Also, our women-only courses will give women an opportunity to learn in a non-intimidating environment.

This course builds on the fundamentals learned in the Low Light Techniques Course.
