Make the training real: YOU... get to hit ME!
You don't need to be a black belt to defend yourself!
Yes, more training is better, but stopping a threat and escaping is not the same as training for an MMA fight!
Essential training can be done for a private group, in the convenience of your own living room or garage!
Pepper Spray Lesson: A family gets to shoot the training spray to learn how it deploys.
Then they get to breath in a sample of the "Real Deal" sprayed into a sandwich bag!
A handgun is "The Great Equalizer". People who are smaller and weaker can defend themselves most effectively in potentially deadly assaults by larger/stronger opponents, or multiple attackers.

The "Essential" series of courses
These are for two kinds of people:
#1 The average person who has no other training. Stay safer, alive, and out of prison!
#2 Professionals or martial artists who realize they need proven skills that "bridge the gap" between a startle/flinch response and their more fine motor skill training.
This is not fighting...
I train you to survive a sudden attack which gives you the chance to escape and/or transition to use your other skills.
Training in street effective martial arts is a great advantage too, and is still encouraged. Ask me for my recommendations (for Children & Adults). Not all martial arts training is the same.

FACT #1:
YOU DON'T NEED TO BE A BLACK BELT.
You're don't need to train in MMA to be capable of defending yourself.
FACT #2:
Some martial arts training is NOT street effective!
Some keep a tradition alive, some focus on sport application, and there is a difference in the focus or application, or perhaps a lack of scenario training.
FACT #3:
YES YOU CAN!
Untrained people do foil attacks.
Don't expect to "Wing It"... learning, realistic, street effective skills will give you a definite edge and increase your chance of a better outcome.
This applies to both general emergency preparedness, personal safety, and also being your own body guard.
Accept that bad things happen in our world.
Evil people exist. Violence and emergencies (man made or natural disasters) are a reality that all of us face.
We don't need to be paranoid, but we should be prudent.
Take reasonable steps to mitigate threats and hazards. Like learning Fist Aid or how to use a fire extinguisher, we hope to never use them, but we should have the tools and skills for the unplanned moment that you need them most desperately!

I got a two-fer with Brent and I was blessed to have him one-on-one!
We spent the first hour and a half on hand-to-hand techniques & weapon disarms. Brent's knowledge and ability was impressive to say the least, and his primary concern is 21st century reality when it comes to fighting.
I have a limited hand-to-hand background, but he was able to quickly & effectively teach me some great tools to put in my bag for various "eventualities." This was the 'bonus' of the night.
On to the range...
The objective was to build confidence & ability in shooting in extreme low light without use of a flashlight, and without the use of sights out to 21'. Brent had me shoot a few sighted rounds to get a baseline, and we went to work starting at extreme close contact distances, with the pistol down at the side (as if it had just cleared the holster). At each distance he had me shoot slow and rapid fire, one and two handed.
We ran through various drills with the pistol at different presentations (sternum height close in & fully extended, chest height, chin height, etc, concentrating on shooting through the centerline (which, despite my not having any formal training on point shooting, I was pleased to find that I had dialed in pretty good), shooting to center-of-mass as well as head. low- and no-light scenarios, bursts, reloads, malfunction drills. By the end of the night I was grouping well all the way out to 21' with rapid fire, in the dark.
In a word, AWESOME!
For those within striking distance of Minneapolis/St. Paul, I cannot recommend Brent's services highly enough!
Steve,
Lutheran Pastor
