May 21 - Low Light Force on Force Scenarios
Graduates of Mindset Lab’s Intro to Force on Force or Dynamic FoF Scenarios classes can step up their preparation by turning down the light levels. Many attacks happen in reduced light, so in this class we cover skills and tactics that work even when your eyes aren’t able to rely on daylight to do their job. Hand-held and weapon-mounted lights will be used in conjunction with blueguns and marking pistols to learn and then test various techniques in skills-based and scenario-based FoF.
Please note that depending on location this course may start later in the day to allow more hours in low light and darkness.
Required gear:
Hand-held and weapon-mounted lights (loaners available)
Comfortable clothing
Groin protection (cup)
Pen or pencil
Drinking water, snacks, and a sack lunch—we will be eating on site.
Class time: 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Class cost: $225
May 22 - Vehicle Force on Force Scenarios
Think for a second about the amount of time you spend in and around vehicles. Commuting, road trips, runs to the grocery, driving your family out to dinner… While you may feel safer seated inside your car with the doors locked, you are still very vulnerable to most attacks. Thin steel and breakable glass are all that separate you from an attacker’s bullets, bat, brick or blade.
Defending yourself requires specialized tactics and techniques when seated in a vehicle. Drawing a pistol can be difficult while wearing a seatbelt and the cramped confines of the passenger compartment will restrict your ability to move.
This class will start the day with skills-based exercises on shooting out of and around cars and then we will spend the rest of the day testing our capabilities in scenario-based Force on Force. As with all Mindset Lab classes, you will learn tactics to keep yourself safer, but more importantly, you will strengthen your Mindset.
Prior to taking this course you must have taken Mindset Lab’s Intro to Force on Force.
This class is not so physical that you need to be in perfect shape to attend, but you will be expected to move and participate in active drills. Any prior injuries and disabilities can be easily accommodated.
Required gear:
Comfortable clothing
Pants with belt loops
Pen or pencil
Drinking water, snacks, and a sack lunch—we will be eating on site.
Class time: 9:00 a.m. to 5:30 p.m.
Class cost: $225
