The Protector Path

Share with a friend:

The Protector Path™ transforms uncertainty into confidence.

In just 4 weeks, you’ll think clearly, act decisively, & defend yourself & your family with complete confidence.

You’ve got the permit. Now it’s time to earn the confidence.

The Protector Path is a 4-part training journey built specifically for new CPL holders who don’t want to guess, hesitate, or hope they’ll “figure it out later.”

By the end of this series, you’ll have fired over 500 structured rounds, pressure-tested your skills, and eliminated the uncertainty that most new carriers quietly live with.

You’ll leave feeling:

  • Confident carrying concealed, because you’ve practiced drawing, shooting, and moving — not just qualifying

  • Clear-headed instead of nervous, knowing exactly what to do if things go sideways

  • Comfortable with concealment, because you’ve worked through positioning, movement, and real-world scenarios

  • Prepared, not paranoid, with skills that are repeatable and reliable

  • Grounded in your role as a Protector, not just someone with a license

 

This series closes the dangerous gap between being legally allowed to carry and actually being ready to carry.

  • You won’t wonder if you’re doing it right.

  • You won’t second-guess yourself in public.

  • You won’t rely on luck.

You’ll walk out knowing you’re trained, capable, and responsible — exactly how a new CPL holder should feel.

This is the Protector Path — where new permit holders become confident everyday protectors.

Defensive Performance

Level1.png

Students build defensive accuracy under time, learn to manage malfunctions and reloads without panic, and experience how pressure affects performance. You stop guessing whether you can perform and start trusting your ability to execute under pressure.

Thinking Like an Armed Citizen

Level2.png

Students learn how movement, cover, angles, and judgment influence outcomes in real-world encounters. The emphasis is on awareness, restraint, and making sound decisions — including when not to act. You stop reacting like a range shooter and start thinking like a responsible armed citizen.

Level3.png

Concealed Carry Works

Students learn real-world concealment, practical draw mechanics from everyday clothing, and how to build a carry setup they will consistently live with. Carrying stops being occasional or awkward and becomes intentional, safe, and consistent.

Level4.png

The Protector Standard

Students apply what they’ve learned under layered pressure while reinforcing the mindset required to carry confidently without paranoia, ego, or recklessness. You leave with confidence grounded in responsibility — prepared, calm, and capable.

What our Students Have to Say!

I was very nervous going into this class as a woman who had never touched a firearm before, however I was pleasantly surprised by Kurt and his team. I walked away from this class feeling empowered and informed and would recommend Kurt to anyone! You can tell this is his passion and that he really cares about making sure his students are being safe. 10/10!
