Defensive Pistol Workshops
Workshops are Paladin’s advanced-level classes. After Defensive Pistol 2.0, instead of the traditional full-day or two-day 3.0 level class found elsewhere, students can pick which topics they’d like to work on in our 3-hour Workshops (we of course suggest all of them!).
These instructor-led Workshops take students through an in-depth study of a specific defensive shooting skill over the course of multiple drills and discussions. Examples include: using cover, decision-making/stress, movement, distance shooting, engaging multiple threats, and more. Understanding that training time and dollars are limited for most folks, we’ve found this approach to work for advanced-level training.
Prerequisite: Students must have a valid Massachusetts LTC (resident or non-resident). These are advanced-level classes. Students who have taken our Defensive Pistol 2.0 class will be well prepared for these Workshops. Others are welcome, as long as they have taken several courses elsewhere (from a recognized academy/instructor) where drawing/holstering and tactical movement and shooting were part of the curriculum.
Note that these courses require physical activity. Please be realistic about your abilities.
