The Intro class to the DPP was EXCELLENT! I appreciate your expertise, hands on experience and enthusiasm for what you do! I feel confident that I am in good hands and am looking forward to the rest of the training. I highly recommend Paladin Protection Academy. They will help you get set up with whatever training and gear you need. It is a great one-stop shop!"

Brian and Jenni did an amazing job providing information and guidance, the class was well structured and easy to keep up with. They encouraged questions and gave easily understood clarification when needed. Everyone is incredibly personable and driven towards your continued success. I left class eager to continue myjourney.

The class provides a lot of information, the hands on helps the user to retain the knowledge they were just given. The instructors took the time to make sure the students walked out with an understanding of the working parts and the responsibilities of having an AR. The length of the class provided time to fully understand what was being taught without feeling rushed.

I'm in awe I've taken many types of classes and this was a lot of detailed info and I am not military nor in law enforcement Yet Brian &Jenni delivered the material in a manner that made it comprehensive as well as palatable at my level.

This was my 3rd time taking the AR-15 outdoor class and each time I take it, I not only learn something new, but my skills get better and better with the muscle memory developing and the expert instruction.

If I could give more stars I would. This class was awesome!! The trainers are wonderful and knowledgeable. Would definitely recommend any women interested to take this class especially if your more comfortable with other women.

I would strongly encourage anyone who thinks they might find themselves in a situation where they might have to render first aid or be a first responder, even in situations not involving firearms. Jenni and Brian were great teachers, answering questions and giving real life examples that helped me understand the content better. The hands-on demonstrations were particularly helpful. This in-person class is not offered very often, and it is SO much better than the online USCCA classes. This class is not offered very often, so if it becomes available again, please consider taking it. You could just end up saving someone's life!

I've been to a few firearms courses, including some from the 'big' named schools, and I've now just had the pleasure of completing one of Paladin Protection Academy's certification courses. Between their passion, professionalism, logistics, sincerity, and depth of knowledge, these guys now rank in the top tier in my mind when it comes to firearms training. These guys walk the walk right alongside some of the best I've seen. Whether you're brand new or experienced, I'd highly recommend them. But only if you want high-quality firearms education from instructors who know what they're talking about and are committed to excellence. I've already signed up for my next course.

Very informative class about being not just a responsible carrier but the consequences and mind-set you must have to
be a carrier. I took away a lot of valuable information from this short class. I actually second guessed if I want to be carrier and wrestled with the idea of what comes after a confrontation, legal or possibly not. Definitely recommend this class! Thank you Paladin for a great discussion!!
