SUMMARY:Low Light & Flashlight Tactics
DESCRIPTION:Developing Defensive Skills for Reduced-Light Conditions\nWhen the lights go down\, decision-making becomes more difficult — and more consequential. Most \ndefensive encounters occur in reduced or compromised lighting\, where visibility\, identification\, and \njudgment are significantly challenged. \nThis course equips responsible armed citizens with the skills necessary to safely and effectively \noperate in low-light environments. Participants will learn structured handheld flashlight techniques\, \nthreat identification methods\, and disciplined integration of light with safe firearm handling — all \nreinforced through practical application in controlled conditions. \nCourse Overview \n• Understanding the challenges and risks of low-light environments \n• Proper handheld flashlight techniques for defensive use \n• Target identification and threat discrimination \n• Movement and use of available cover in reduced lighting \n• Light discipline and avoiding self-silhouetting \n• Integrating flashlight use with safe firearm handling \n• Legal considerations when identifying and engaging threats \nWho Should Attend \n• Shooters comfortable with firearm safety fundamentals \n• Individuals who carry a firearm for personal protection \n• Armed citizens seeking greater preparedness in realistic lighting conditions \n• Those committed to responsible defensive training \nWhy Take This Class \nReduced-light conditions create additional complexity in defensive situations. Without proper \ntraining\, low visibility can increase the risk of misidentification and poor decision-making. \nThis course provides structured\, professionally guided instruction to improve confidence\, discipline\, \nand safe performance when lighting conditions are less than ideal. Participants leave with improved \nawareness\, refined flashlight techniques\, and a stronger understanding of how light affects \ndefensive judgment. \nWhat to Bring \n• Handheld flashlight (high-lumen recommended) \n• Holster and training gear (if applicable) \n• Comfortable clothing suitable for movement \n• Water bottle \n• Note-taking materials \nCost Before eligible discounts:$45.00  \nCTR™ Prepared Carry Member $22.50 Saves 50% \nDiamond Member $22.50 Saves 50%  \nPlatinum Member $33.75  Saves 25%  \n** All membership discounts are applied automatically at checkout. \n

SUMMARY:Ladies Situational Awareness & Personal Defense Readiness
DESCRIPTION:Building the Mindset\, Awareness & Judgment Responsible Citizens Rely On\nPreparedness begins long before a defensive encounter occurs. True readiness is built on \nawareness\, sound judgment\, and an understanding of lawful self-defense principles — not simply \nskill with a firearm. \nThis 4-hour course is delivered in two structured 2-hour sessions held one week apart. Participants \nwill learn how to recognize developing threats\, avoid unnecessary risk\, and make legally sound \ndecisions under stress — building the mindset that responsible armed citizens depend upon. \nCourse Structure \n• Part I – Situational Awareness & Threat Recognition (2 Hours) March 17th – Tuesday 6:00-8:00pm \n• Part II – Personal Defense Readiness & Lawful Response (2 Hours\, held the following week) March 24th – Tuesday 6:00-8;00pm \n• Both sessions must be completed to receive course completion recognition. \nCourse Overview \n• The principles of situational awareness and threat recognition \n• Pre-incident indicators and behavioral cues \n• Avoidance strategies and de-escalation techniques \n• Defensive mindset development \n• Legal foundations of lawful self-defense \n• Use-of-force considerations and proportional response \n• Post-incident responsibilities and consequence awareness \n• Developing a layered personal safety plan \n• Applying awareness principles to real-world scenarios \nWho Should Attend \n• Individuals new to defensive training \n• Armed citizens seeking stronger decision-making foundations \n• Those carrying under Constitutional Carry or CHL \n• Anyone committed to lawful and responsible personal protection \n• Community members interested in increasing awareness and safety \nWhy Take This Class \nSkill without awareness creates risk. Awareness without legal understanding creates liability. This \ncourse strengthens the foundation upon which all defensive training should be built. \nParticipants leave with greater confidence in recognizing potential threats\, improved \ndecision-making under pressure\, clearer understanding of lawful defensive boundaries\, and a \nstronger personal preparedness mindset. \nWhat to Bring \n• Note-taking materials \n• An open\, focused mindset \n• Questions about real-world defensive decision-making \nCost $75.00 (Includes both 2-hour sessions held one week apart) \nCTR™ Prepared Carry Member $37.50 Saves 50%  \nPlatinum Member $56.25 Saves 25% \nDiamond Member $37.50 Saves 50%  \n** All membership discounts are applied automatically at checkout

SUMMARY:Constitutional Carry: Know Your Legal Responsibilities
DESCRIPTION:Perfect if you are not certain that you want to obtain a CCW/CHL yet!\nYou can opt In for your CCW/CHL at a later date*\n\nThis class meets the Ohio CCW/CHL requirement for the 6-hours of classroom instruction *in the event participant opts to complete the 2 -hour Range Requirement at a later date (By end of year 2026).\n\nWhether you carry under Ohio’s Constitutional Carry Laws\, or with a CHL\, you are still responsible for understanding\, and carrying according to Ohio’s Conceal Carry Laws.

Know the laws that pertain to Constitutional Carry and don’t make a costly mistake. You’ll be armed with the knowledge you’ll need when you leave this class. And\, you’ll have the option to complete the remainder of the CCW\CHL requirements\, taking the 2-hour Range Requirement portion at a later date.\nThis class affords you knowledge\, and flexibility.

Students will gain clarity on\ndecision-making boundaries and build confidence in carrying alternatives as part of a layered\npersonal protection strategy. \nCourse Overview\n• Legal considerations and use-of-force principles\n• When less-than-lethal force may be appropriate\n• Understanding pepper spray types and delivery systems\n• Deployment distances\, environmental factors\, and limitations\n• Overview of conducted electrical weapons (CEWs) and safety considerations\n• Targeting principles and post-deployment actions\n• Avoidance\, de-escalation\, and layered defense strategy\n• Post-incident responsibilities and reporting considerations \nWho Should Attend\n• Individuals seeking non-lethal defensive options\n• Concealed carriers building layered defense plans\n• Students new to personal protection training\n• Those who prefer alternatives to firearm carry\n• Armed citizens committed to responsible use-of-force decisions \nWhy Take This Class\nPreparedness requires options. Less-than-lethal tools provide an intermediate response that may\nprevent escalation while maintaining personal safety.
