About this event
This course is designed to elevate your ability to carry and fight effectively from concealment in high-threat environments. Students will develop the knowledge, skills, and combat mindset necessary to deploy their concealed firearm with precision and speed, utilizing low-signature techniques under stress.
Training will focus on real-world applications, including engaging threats in confined spaces, non-traditional shooting positions, and working from concealment in unpredictable environments. Students will learn to fight from within vehicles, engage from seated positions, and leverage their surroundings for both offense and defense.
This course also incorporates close-quarters engagement strategies, including weapon retention, and combative movement against armed threats. Students will be trained to rapidly assess and respond to threat stimuli, deploying both kinetic and non-kinetic countermeasures to neutralize threats efficiently while maintaining total situational awareness.
By the end of this course, students will leave with a refined ability to fight from concealment, the confidence to react decisively under pressure, and the tools to survive violent encounters in real-world settings.
