Welcome to the KR Training September 2019 newsletter!
Most of our October classes filled up quickly, so I would encourage you to sign up now for any training currently scheduled. Check the schedule page on the KR Training website for the full list of upcoming classes, and click the “Register” link at the top of the page to sign up.
After a month full of travel, our October schedule focuses primarily on curriculum that is part of our 40-hour Defensive Pistol Skills program, followed by some NRA instructor training taught by myself, Tiffany Johnson and Aqil Qadir of Citizens’ Safety Academy. The last weekend of the month I’m on the road again to Watkinsville, GA, to teach Advanced Handgun and Tactical Scenarios.
MEDICAL TRAINING WITH LONE STAR MEDICS
It’s not too early to register for December 7 medical training with Caleb Causey of Lone Star Medics. His Dynamic First Aid class should be on your list of “must-take” classes as a foundational medical skills class. You’ll learn field medicine skills in a day of scenario-based training. Pair it with Caleb’s Low-Light Medical class that evening, and you’ll have a solid grasp of what’s required to address medical emergencies in situations you may face in everyday life. This day of training is sure to sell out, so register now for one class or both. If you’ve taken the classes in the past but need a refresher (you do), sign up to maintain your skills and stay up-to-date on technique and gear best practices.
