Full description and what we offer
Defoor Proformance Shooting runs 2-day tactical firearms courses taught by combat-proven instructors. Founded in 2009 as a Service Disabled Veteran-Owned Small Business, DPS trains about 1,800 students annually and holds multiple government contracts with U.S. military, law enforcement, and federal agencies.
Kyle Defoor and his instructor team are decorated Special Mission Unit combat veterans and law enforcement officers with hundreds of high-risk warrant entries. They bring field-tested techniques directly into civilian training.
Every course covers the same core skill set:
- •Mindset and combatives
- •Weapon setup and safety
- •Fundamentals and accuracy
- •Targeting, movement, and speed
- •Manipulations and multiple targets
- •Shooting under stress
Physical demands are real. Some drills require elevated heart rate and exertion. The combatives block includes hands-on training with other students. Days run 8am-4pm.
