• •Back-Country Survival Herbalist 101, 201, and Night courses

• •Israeli Combat Method: The technique originates from Israeli Defense Forces anti-terrorism and self-defense doctrine. It emphasizes quick target identification, footwork flow, and stress-tested fundamentals that work under pressure—not just at a static range.

• •One-on-One Pairing: Every student is assigned an instructor for the entire class, not just demos. This allows real-time form correction and personalized adaptation for different ages, abilities, and experience levels.

• •Stress Inoculation: Unlike traditional range courses, Level 2 and beyond introduce movement, multiple targets, and time pressure to simulate real threat scenarios.

• •No Gun Experience Required: The program explicitly welcomes first-time shooters. Instructors adapt methods for newcomers, and most students report confidence gains by class end.
