SUMMARY:Guns 101: Online!
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Are you thinking about buying a gun but still a little nervous\, unsure\, or scared? Do you have lingering questions or concerns? Do you own a gun but feel less than confident in operating or carrying it? If so\, this seminar is for you. It’s is a FREE educational Q&A panel where anyone can ask almost any question about firearms and the armed lifestyle.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Seminar Info” tab_id=”section-seminar-info”][vc_column_text]The sole purpose of this online seminar is to provide a non-intimidating environment where people can feel comfortable asking about almost any firearms-related topic. The only thing off limits is politics. This is a politics-free zone\, so we will not be discussing gun policy or legislation. \nWe’ll start with a very brief presentation on safety\, and then we’ll open the floor for an extended Q&A period. No question is too simple. Please invite the family\, invite your friends and co-workers\, and bring all the questions you’ve ever had about guns or going armed. We’ll be happy to give you as much information as we can so you can make more informed decisions about the next step in your personal security plans.[/vc_column_text][vc_single_image image=”3145″ img_size=”large” alignment=”center” onclick=”custom_link” img_link_target=”_blank” css_animation=”fadeInRight” link=”https://www.eventbrite.com/e/guns-101-online-tickets-105026637500″][vc_empty_space height=”10px”][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”How to Join the Online Seminar” tab_id=”how-to-join”][vc_column_text]\nAttend from anywhere!\nThis virtual seminar will take place online using Zoom video conferencing. We’ll meet on Wednesday\, May 27\, 2020\, at 6:30pm Central (7:30pm Eastern\, 4:30 Pacific).  The event is free\, but pre-registration is required.  \nOn the day of the event\, we will send all registered attendees a link by email. We’ll send the link to the email provided in your Eventbrite registration. Please do not share the link with others\, as we really need to have an accurate count of how many people will be attending. If you know anyone who is interested in joining us\, please invite them to register for the event. \nNew to Zoom? The resources posted below might help. However\, you do NOT have to be a “tech whiz” to join the meeting. It’s very simple. Once we send you the link\, all you have to do is make sure your webcam is connected\, click the link\, and enjoy the seminar! \n\nZoom YouTube Channel\nZoom support page and tutorials\nHow to join a Zoom meeting\nHow to adjust your audio and video settings in Zoom\n\n \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Required Equipment” tab_id=”required-equipment”][vc_column_text]To attend our online version of Guns 101\, you’ll need a reliable internet connection\, a webcam and microphone\, and an open mind. You can join from a mobile device\, but it’s often easier to use a laptop or desktop. You will also have the option to join by phone\, but we strongly recommend joining by webcam so we can see everyone’s lovely face. \nWhen you get ready to join the meeting\, you might be prompted to install the Zoom software. That is totally optional\, but using the software usually provides the smoothest experience on a Zoom video-conference call. If you like\, you can go ahead and install the software ahead of time. If you’ll be using a regular computer\, install the Zoom Client for Meetings. If you’re be using a mobile device\, install the Zoom mobile app.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What NOT to Bring” tab_id=”what-not-to-bring”][vc_column_text]If you attend the seminar\, do NOT have any firearms or ammunition anywhere in the room with you.

SUMMARY:Women's Concealed Carry
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]\nWomen are the fastest growing demographic of new handgun carry permit holders in America. Unfortunately\, most state-mandated permit classes do not include any instruction on how to present a handgun from a holster\, let alone any tips from a female perspective. Our Women’s Concealed Carry class helps ladies identify and employ safe\, reliable\, and comfortable handgun carry methods that fit their lifestyles. In the classroom segment\, we’ll explore different concealment options and discuss the practical strengths and weaknesses of each. In the live-fire segment\, we’ll teach women how to present a concealed handgun on demand without sacrificing the marksmanship fundamentals they learned in their handgun carry permit class. \n[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]\nThis class is restricted to ladies only. It’s a great curriculum for women who have been exposed to marksmanship fundamentals but have little or no practice with holster work. It’s also great for women who are largely self-taught and want a more formal template for practicing their handgun presentation from concealment. And if you do have experience drawing from a holster\, this is still a perfect opportunity for you to get in lots of practice repetitions under the watchful eyes of several experienced instructors who can offer useful\, individualized tips for improving your efficiency and consistency. We will teach all the same techniques that most competent concealed carriers use\, but with a female lead instructor and special emphasis on factors women tend to prioritize (fellas\, if you’re interested in class involving holster work\, please consider our ATP-2 course). Topics covered in this course include: \n\nSafety\, safety\, safety\nThe four-count draw stroke (presentation)\nSafe re-holstering\nOpen carry versus concealed carry\nClosed-front and open-front concealment garments\nOn-body carry (hip/appendix/ankle holsters\, belly bands\, compression undergarments\, etc.) versus off-body carry (purses\, briefcases\, etc.)\nHolster selection (common options\, samples\, demos\, and pros/cons of each)\nHolster fit and sizing\nSimple holster modifications to improve fit\, speed\, comfort\, and security\nCarrying with restrictive or fitted clothing\nSecuring firearms in non-permissive environments\nPractical considerations for ladies who carry\n\n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Equipment List” tab_id=”section-equipment-list”][vc_column_text]Students in this class will need: \n\nReliable defensive handgun\nApproximately 50-75  rounds of ammunition (depends on the pace of the class)\nSturdy gun belt (a belt designed specifically for supporting a handgun)\nKydex or leather holster that does not collapse and is designed specifically for your make and model handgun (not a one-size-fits-many)\nPreferably at least two magazines (for semi-auto pistols)\n\nIf you’re interested in the class but don’t have a holster yet (or if you’d like to use another type of holster that isn’t listed here)\, please contact us to discuss. We look forward to training with you! \n[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]We appreciate you choosing to train with us.

SUMMARY:Get a Grip: Hand Health for Defensive Shooters
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Are you suffering from an inconsistent grip? Do you sometimes adjust your hands and fingers while shooting? Have you ever wondered if a different grip technique might improve your marksmanship? Join us for this unique skill-builder with Gil and Maria — two excellent shooters and great friends of CSA who also happen to be experts hand health.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”course-details”][vc_column_text]Of all the fundamentals of pistol shooting\, the grip is sometimes the most neglected\, even though it can drastically affect both sight alignment and trigger control. Renowned defensive firearms trainer Paul Gomez sometimes told his students that while your pistol sights can help refine your marksmanship\, you actually do the bulk of aiming with your grip. \nThat’s why CSA is so excited to host two grip strength experts for a clinic focusing on improving grip and hold control for pistol shooting. This clinic will also cover some strategies for addressing imbalances in the hands\, wrists\, forearms\, and shoulders from repetitive shooting motions and positions. Joint health\, all the way up the chain\, is an integral piece of having a strong and steady grip. \nGuest Instructors Maria Bascetta and Gil Goodman bring years of expertise in the fitness and strength training world\, with a particular focus on hand health and grip technique. Improve your sight alignment consistency\, recoil control\, follow through speed\, and overall marksmanship. Walk away with tips\, tricks\, and information to help you on your journey to better hand fitness.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Guest Instructors” tab_id=”guest-instructors”][vc_column_text]\nGil Goodman\nBarrel Strength Systems\nGil is a World Champion grip-sport competitor\, a strength trainer\, and the founder of Barrel Strength Systems in Nashville\, TN.

SUMMARY:Holster Clinic: A Girl and A Gun National Conference
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The National Conference of A Girl and A Gun Women’s Shooting League is now entering its seventh year. The conference takes place in April in beautiful Texas hill country\, about an hour outside of Austin. This year\, CSA instructors Aqil Qadir and Tiffany Johnson will be teaching five different three-hour blocks on presenting a handgun from the holster. Tiffany will also offer CSA’s Assistant Instructor training block to AG & AG’s leadership team.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Clinic Details” tab_id=”clinic-details”][vc_column_text]\nAccessing Options: Defensive Holster Clinic\n\nWhat: Three-hour live-fire defensive holster clinic presented at the National A Girl and A Gun Conference\nWho: Tiffany Johnson and Aqil Qadir of Citizens Safety Academy\nWhere: Reveille Peak Ranch in Burnet\, TX\nWhen: April 11-14\, 2019 (repeat course offerings on Friday\, Saturday\, and Sunday)\n\nCourse Description:\nIn the defensive training world\, firearms are known as the great equalizers. They help level the playing field by offering defensive options to those who might otherwise be vulnerable. This is especially true for women\, since they are disproportionately targeted by criminals who often outweigh them or outnumber them. But your handgun is useless if you can’t access it fast enough when you really need it. That’s why it’s so important to learn\, understand\, and practice effective techniques for using a holster properly. Holster work is often neglected in firearms training\, because everyone is anxious to get to the “fun part” – making loud noises and admiring our fancy marksmanship. But before you can find your front sight\, you’ve got to get your gun! This session will teach the four-step method of handgun presentation from concealment\, specifically for practical defensive contexts. We’ll do lots of reps\, both dry and live\, to habituate the steps required to access a holstered handgun reliably\, efficiently\, and safely. We’ll also discuss the pros and cons of several different carry methods to help each attendee make informed decisions about how she can best incorporate concealed carry into her everyday routine.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Conference Details” tab_id=”section-conference-details”][vc_column_text]The A Girl & A Gun National Conference brings together over 400 women and dozens of talented firearms instructors from across the country every year. The conference starts on Wednesday with a full day of informative seminars from renown speakers\, followed by gear and safety checks and a vendor fair on Thursday. The conference culminates with three days of weekend live-fire training on pistol\, rifle\, and shotgun during which all the ladies in attendance rotate through a wide variety of morning and afternoon training blocks. Tiffany’s and Aqil’s holster clinic is just one of many training blocks available throughout the weekend\, which are all included in the $400 registration fee.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What to Bring” tab_id=”what-to-bring”][vc_column_text]Equipment needed for this clinic: \n\nReliable defensive pistol\n100 rounds of ammo\nNon-collapsing holster\, worn on-body at waist level\nAt least one spare magazine/speedloader\nAbility to carry the spare magazine/speedloader on-body (pouch\, pocket\, etc.)\nConcealment garment(s).

SUMMARY:The Changing Face of the Industry
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]The Rangemaster Tactical Conference takes place every year in mid-March\, and this year CSA instructors Aqil Qadir and Tiffany Johnson will be teaching a two-hour block at the conference called “The Changing Face of the Industry.”[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Seminar Details” tab_id=”section-seminar-details”][vc_column_text]\nThe Changing Face of the Industry\n\nWhat: A Two-Hour Seminar presented at the Rangemaster Tactical Conference\nWho: Aqil Qadir and Tiffany Johnson of Citizens Safety Academy\nWhere: NOLATAC Training Center; New Orleans\, LA\nWhen: March 17\, 2019 @ 3pm-5pm\n\nCourse Description:\nResearch shows that human beings are tribal by nature. We can’t help but gravitate towards people who remind us of ourselves. But have we taken this natural tendency to a counterproductive extreme? If you’re a firearms trainer\, a gun-industry product vendor\, or a Second Amendment advocate of any kind\, then you can’t afford to idle in your social or political comfort zone. This session will take an honest look at how the pro-gun community can become less insular and reach audiences beyond the echo chamber.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Video Preview” tab_id=”video-preview”][vc_video link=”https://youtu.be/5GS75OYshCY” el_width=”80″ align=”center”][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Conference Details” tab_id=”section-conference-details”][vc_column_text]The Rangemaster Tactical Conference is the premier defensive training event event of the year. Launched by Tom and Lynn Givens over twenty years ago\, the conference has grown into a busy three-day weekend featuring five concurrent tracks of classes in every defensive discipline. There are classroom seminars (non-shooting)\, live-fire blocks (pistol\, shotgun\, and rifle)\, hand-to-hand classes\, medical classes\, scenario-based force-on-force classes\, and much more. Difficulty levels range from beginner classes on basic fundamentals to advanced classes for experienced practitioners. This year\, Tac-Con will be held at the NOLATAC Training Center just outside of New Orleans\, LA. \nAll of the CSA Instructors have trained with Rangemaster. CSA instructors Aqil Qadir and Tiffany Johnson were both mentored by Tom and Lynn Givens and have taken almost every course Rangemaster offers. Aq and Tiff are honored to be tapped as presenters for the 2019 Tac-Con\, where over 40 of the nation’s top trainers all gather to teach different training blocks throughout the weekend for over 300 conference attendees from all over the country. \nThe $389 registration fee is for the entire weekend (not just for Aq and Tiff’s class).

SUMMARY:CSA Quick Clinic: Dry Fire
DESCRIPTION:[vc_row][vc_column][vc_column_text]Not yet comfortable handling and shooting your handgun? Do you want to develop the skills and confidence to get the most out of a shooting class? Our Dry Fire Quick Clinics are designed to develop and ingrain students’ marksmanship and gun handling techniques in just a few hours\, without the added stress\, noise\, and expense of using live ammunition. These dry fire sessions will help prepare you to get the most our of our Defensive Pistol and other live fire courses. No matter your current skill level\, this course will help make you a better and more consistent shooter.[/vc_column_text][vc_tta_accordion style=”modern” shape=”square” color=”mulled-wine” c_icon=”chevron” active_section=”9″ no_fill=”true” collapsible_all=”true”][vc_tta_section title=”Course Details” tab_id=”section-course-details”][vc_column_text]What is “dry fire”? Dry fire is an invaluable exercise where students carefully practice the fundamentals of marksmanship and gun-handling with an unloaded firearm. Almost every element of shooting technique can be taught\, performed\, and refined with an empty firearm (“dry”). Most accomplished shooters spend far more time working dry than live fire. \nIn our Dry Fire Quick Clinic\, we spend an hour or two in a classroom setting giving students one-on-one attention to diagnose any errors in shooting or gun handling technique\, without using live ammunition. We use the students’ handguns and dummy ammunition to reinforce solid techniques without firing a single shot. This allows students to establish a solid performance baseline and reliable practice regimen that they can take home and repeat at their convenience with few burdens of time or money.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”What to Bring” tab_id=”section-what-to-bring”][vc_column_text]Here’s what you’ll need for this session: \n\nBasic knowledge and understanding of the safety rules (we will review them)\nA quality handgun (you won’t need any ammo since this is a dry-fire clinic)\nWhatever gear or equipment you currently own for it\nA positive attitude\nAn open mind\n$30 cash (please register in advance to reserve a spot\, but then you’ll just pay at the door)\n\nIf you need recommendations regarding the required equipment\, contact us before the class to ask.[/vc_column_text][/vc_tta_section][vc_tta_section title=”Register Now” tab_id=”section-register-now”][vc_column_text]Please enable JavaScript in your browser to complete this form.Name *FirstLastEmail *Phone NumberComments / QuestionsLiability Waiver *I agree to the terms below.I understand that my registration fee is non-refundable\, for any reason.
