Hands to Handgun ( Mixed/Ladies only classes available) $120 person/$200 couples

Most self-defense training lives at the distance where you can see the threat coming. Real life doesn’t always give you that luxury.

Studies of defensive encounters consistently show that most incidents occur within 9–15 feet—a distance that disappears in Moments. Closer still, at 3–5 feet, you’re no longer in a “shooting problem”… you’re in a grappling problem. This is the range where space, time, and clean draws vanish—and where untrained gun owners are at their most vulnerable.

Hands to Handgun is built specifically for that moment.

This class bridges the critical gap between empty-hand defense and firearm deployment. You’ll learn how to fight from contact distance, maintain control of your weapon, and create the space needed to safely and effectively bring your handgun into play.

In this course, you’ll train to:

Recognize and manage threats inside the danger zone (0–5 feet)
Use leverage, structure, and positioning to survive initial contact
Defend against weapon grabs and entanglements
Access and deploy your handgun under pressure
Create distance when distance doesn’t exist
Integrate strikes, movement, and firearm presentation into one continuous response

This is not a marksmanship class. This is about winning the fight before the gun ever clears the holster.

If your training starts at the draw… you’re already behind.

Train for where fights actually happen.
