I took the enhanced Concealed Carry class from American Defense…read more The class was held in a classroom as well as at an actual gun range (Impact Guns). I really liked the instructors, and at one point a police officer even came in and taught part of the class. The class was long, but between the instructions and the range shooting the time went quickly. I would highly recommend this class to anyone thinking about getting proper certification for concealed carry.

Had the pleasure of working with Dan @Unitedshootingsolutions this week…read more I would highly recommend United Shooting Solutions for first time shooters, as well as experienced marksmen that would like to improve on their skillset, or develop a new one. Dan is the "man" and from start to finish we felt we were in great hands. He made us feel extremely safe and his teaching style allowed us to accomplish skills we had not thought possible. His one on one class format provides the opportunity to learn how to operate your firearm safely in potential real world situations. One on one instructions is definitely the way to go, as he customizes he teaching to your specific needs. He also made it fun! We had the best day! Cant recommend him enough. Thanks, Dan!

I just completed the basic pistol course with United Shooting Solutions yesterday and it was an…read moreamazing learning experience and a fun day! Can't remember when I had so much fun in a day! Dan was very detailed and went through various aspects of safety and gun handling before we started with the actual course. He looked at every aspect from how I held the pistol and helped me learn how to detect problems in the way I was shooting and how to correct them. We started with the very basics and Dan did not rush me. When he felt I was comfortable with the very basics, he gradually increased the complexity and which helped me improve my skill. The best part was that it was 1:1, so I had enough time to ask questions and he was more than willing to answer them and explain more. I will surely be going for the next course after I practice more of what I have learned! I will highly recommend Dan for first time shooters for sure and also experienced marksman.

It was educational, engaging, and so much fun for the whole family. Every instructor and staff member we interacted with was incredibly kind, welcoming, and patient. They took the time to answer questions and made everyone feel comfortable. You can tell they're passionate about what they do and genuinely care about creating a safe, positive environment. We left with a greater appreciation for the work these K9 teams do, and our kids haven't stopped talking about it. We highly recommend checking them out--we'll definitely be back!

Many of which…read morehad good reviews, but after narrowing down my options, I decided to purchase an 8-pack of private lessons through Ben at Integrated Defensive. My original plan was to try out 2-3 instructors, then decide who I felt was the best fit for me in the sense of training style and personality. After my first session with Ben, my plans changed. It didn't take long to realize he is extremely knowledgable, but more importantly, his process of teaching makes you feel comfortable and speeds up the learning process. I thoroughly enjoy working with him, and am purchasing more sessions to train with him weekly to improve my skills.

I wanted to leave a review because some of the negative reviews I found when researching Innovate…read moreAcademy are several years old, and our experience has been very different. Management has changed, and the school today deserves to be evaluated on what it is now. The teachers are excellent. Many have advanced degrees, and we have been impressed by both the academic rigor and the individualized attention our children receive. Our kids are scoring very well on standardized tests, but academics here are not limited to worksheets and test preparation. There is a strong emphasis on hands-on learning, curiosity, and actually understanding the material. I also appreciate that the school recognizes that young children need movement. They have three recesses during the day, which initially sounded unusual to me, but now I think it is one of the school's strengths. The kids have opportunities to run, reset, and come back ready to learn. The four-day school week took some adjustment, but we came to appreciate the Fridays off, and our kids genuinely benefit from having that break. For families who need Friday childcare or activities, there are also many Friday programs available in the area. We came to Innovate from Challenger, where our children were doing extremely well academically. We did not leave because we were unhappy with their academic progress. What we found at Innovate, however, was something we value even more: strong academics combined with warmth, individualized education, and a real sense of community. You truly feel like part of a family here. Our kids love going to school and are excited to tell us about their day, which says a lot. The school is described as having "conservative values." In our experience, I would describe the culture less politically and more as traditional, old-school values: merit, hard work, personal responsibility, kindness, and community service.

What I love is the small class sizes, individual attention given to the students, no homework, and 4 day school week. I love no homework and the four day school week because it prioritizes our family time in the evenings. We don't spend our evenings after school stressing about assignments. I also love that they make it easy for parents to get involved. I'm able to volunteer in her classroom weekly. My daughter has excelled here! She loves going to school and used to be sad on the weekends that there isn't school 7 days a week. Our youngest daughter has blossomed going to Innovate's preschool this year. She is so happy there and I can tell the staff truly value her and care for her. I think because Innovate is such a new school they have had many growing pains but these haven't affected our family in a negative way. Dr. Geri has been a great addition to the school.
