I was the first student and experimental guinea pig of gun instructor, Bobby Blanton. I never had a…read moregun class and most of my shooting was in outdoor country fields. Yet, I had a penchant for attracting gun collectors and merchants. Guns have always been a part of my life. After taking his beginner and introduction gun class, I was impressed with his simple, calm, and easy to understand instructions. He, also, put a lot of emphasis on gun safety and maintenance. Safety is my biggest concern. My girl friend carried a gun in her car at 16 but was not well instructed in gun safety. What happened with her gun always haunted me to this day. I cleaned a gun for the first time in my life in his class. I took his class at a private residence and shot at an indoor shooting range. I used a semi automatic Smith & Wesson Bodyguard hand gun. I would highly recommend Bobby Blanton as a gun instructor. His class was very memorable and the hours flew by quick.

But Jeremy's kindness and patience and dedication to his craft is what made me need to review. Given the Delta variant surge, and the ability for vaccinated people to be carriers...I'm not in the best position to participate given my baby niece's immunocompromised status (who, as an infant, isn't vaccinated), and Jeremy worked with me to find a solution that helps me make sure my niece is safe and looked after, but making sure I knew the door stayed open for my own training. God bless TDT and their staff, and their members who go out of their way to motivate and encourage. If you need a gym routine that shakes up the old and in an exciting way, get on the mat and have some fun!!!! I personally can't wait to go back .

Adir is a gifted and skilled leader, educator, teacher, and person. The classes are not only educational but they are designed to push you out of your comfort zone resulting in personal growth.

It is rewarding to have the camaraderie and friendship with other students, who like me, just want to be their personal best. I'm looking forward to my next class. Not enough stars for Adir!
