I purchased the training course for my daughters birthday. She's been wanting to learn how to shoot and handle a hand gun. Kelly was absolutely wonderful. Her training is very... read more professional and thorough. Gun safety and proper handling was a major focus. We both learned a lot. She was very easy to understand and answered all our questions. After the class we went to the shooting range in Richmond. This is where it got even better. She helped us with our confidence in handling a live weapon. Her instruction and tips on aiming and shooting were excellent and easy to understand. My daughter seemed to be a natural. Her new nickname is Annie Oakley. All three of her targets had shot patterns within a 4" circle. Only 4 shots were out of that circle. Kelly is the one to go to. We plan on returning for more instruction once we purchase our handguns.

  My husband and I had the pleasure of a private 3 hour beginner handgun course with Kelly. My husband has had experience shooting guns, but I on the other hand... read more knew absolutely nothing about guns and was extremely anxious prior to the course.

Kelly upon meeting was very warm and friendly. She immediately gave us properly fitted safety glasses and ear protection prior to entering the private range. Her course was very nicely paced with lots of pertinent information on gun safety & etiquette, how guns actually work on the mechanical level, how to take it apart, and the most exciting part... how to properly fire one!!! She uses diagrams and hands-on activities for us to get us used to holding the real thing.

We also had a chance to try a few other handguns including Kelly's personal handgun she uses for professional competitions. She walked us through how to eventually get our own handguns. There were never silly or stupid questions with Kelly, she is a professional and we never ever felt patronized for our lack of knowledge. She is also very safety conscious, and corrected any bad safety habits immediately.

Kelly is a gifted instructor and was so patient with me especially when my forearms and shoulders were getting quite fatigued from shooting. It was quite a novel but THRILLING experience for me and a fun date with my husband! Would recommend Kelly to anyone anxious about the idea of guns!!

  Kelly is a great instructor - she takes her time, no question is too stupid, and you should be able to leave with your FSC by the end of the... read more class. She not only teaches you the basics of safety but coaches on your grip and stance, and makes sure you know how to break a gun down and clean it.

I highly recommend her.
