Close Quarters Combat
About this event
9:00 AM – 4:00 PM
Our Basic CQB Course is designed to introduce civilian shooters to the fundamentals of Close Quarters Battle (CQB), providing the essential skills needed to operate effectively in confined spaces. This one-day course will take you through the basics of moving, shooting, and communicating in environments where space is limited and threats can appear suddenly. Whether you’re interested in home defense, tactical training, or personal growth, this course offers the foundational knowledge to help you stay safe and respond effectively in high-pressure situations.
With a heavy focus on safety, this course walks you through the essential principles of room entry, cornering, and threat engagement in close quarters. Our instructors have extensive military and law enforcement backgrounds, ensuring that you receive top-tier training while staying grounded in civilian applications. By the end of the day, you’ll have a clear understanding of CQB principles and how they apply to everyday environments, such as home defense.
