What Our Students Say
"I Was Hitting My Targets"
I was nervous walking into my first lesson, but Kailan made me feel completely comfortable. By the end, I was hitting my targets and actually enjoying it! I never thought I'd feel confident with a gun, but now I do.
– Jasmine T.
"Worth Every Penny"
The private sessions were worth every penny. I got personalized tips, real coaching, and tools that actually helped me improve my accuracy and speed. Highly recommend the 5-session package if you’re serious about carrying.
– Marcus W.
"Made Me Feel Safe and Empowered"
I appreciated the patience and encouragement. I had never touched a gun before and was really intimidated, but this class made me feel safe, informed, and empowered. I’m planning to sign up for more sessions!
– Danielle R.
"Nothing Compares"
I’ve taken group classes before, but nothing compares to the attention I got in a private lesson. Kailan helped me fix my grip, gave me drills to practice, and explained everything clearly.
