Additionally for a number of years I have taught handgun safety, which then grew into beginners to intermediate tactical protection training for men, women, couples and groups .

Along the way I have picked up some great training to share that can help you protect yourself and your loved ones, and doing everything from clearing a house, avoiding potential bad situations, terrorist issues and more.

If you are looking to pick up some fun skills such as counter-surveillance or shooting on the move the classes I offer are fun, safe, informative and come from experience.

These are not, "Rambo" classes as I am not a special forces operator nor can I train you to be, but instead these classes are designed to be fun, instructive and to provide you with new skills that will help you to better protect yourself and loved ones in many troublesome situations.

All age groups, fitness  and skill levels are welcome.  Younger students may need a legal guardian to be in attendance during some classes.

I invite you to fill out the form on this page for more information and then better yet, come on over to the "Range" and we'll have some fun, show you some new skills or perhaps  tune up some existing one's and see what we can't get done.

These are Top Gun "Professionals"

These are who have trained me up on my journey and I welcome any chance to train more with them. I offer them here in case you could ever get the chance to work with them as well...

Being safe in your house of worship...

Our team offers experience in providing security personnel, security assessments and training for both congregations and church staff.

Serving on the security team for Gateway Church in Southlake, Texas with a congregation in the 20,000's as well as New Life Church in Chipley, Florida which is a small hometown church,  our instructors have the ability to provide a custom program or service to small, large and in between sized houses of worship.

With years of training and service we are not jumping on the band wagon of a new niche to market but instead believe this to be a calling to provide protection for those attending a house of worship or faith based event.

We can provide or help your team create a low profile or high visibility presence at your location or your event location, with protocols and directives created for your unique church needs.

Please do not arm your parishioners with out adequate and ongoing training and call them your security team.

Our instructors also instruct for the Dept. of Homeland Security, FEMA, NGO's,  state, military, emergency responders and law enforcement.

Dear Visitors, Students and Friends...

I have served as a licensed Body Guard / Personal Protection Officer for a number of years. I am credentialed to teach & certify LTC in the state of Texas and CWP in the state of Florida. I am also certified as a National NRA instructor.

For the last several years I have served as an instructor, teaching law enforcement and first responders the Incident Command System as is now required for certain State and Federal employees positions.

I have had training for high risk operations In Executive Protection, and have had the great fun and pleasure to get train along side of some of this countries finest operators, SEALS, SWAT, SF Operators, military units and drug intervention units in the schools and facilities I have attended.

I've gotten to provide close protection services for celebrities like John Wayne's family, and have been on teams to transport both people and and items of interest from airports to safe places.

I have worked on security teams providing close personal protection and in huge venues with coordinated multiple operators protecting against kidnapping and more.
