I attended the DPSST unarmed security course and the instructor, Logan Nichols, was very…read moreprofessional, clear, and a great teacher all around. The course itself was 14 hours over two days including breaks every hour including one hour for lunch for each day. During the course you'll receive everything you need to enter the world of private security including a hundred page manual which the instructor will go over with you and answer any questions you have. The course is finished with a fifty question test that is open note, but if you pay attention in class and write down what you need, consulting notes on the test will only slow you down. Seriously, I'm a terrible test taker but I scored around 95%. The hardest part is the second day where you'll start to feel training fatigue but it's nothing a little coffee and a vape/cigarette can't fix. At the very end of the course you'll get all the paper work you need for submission to obtain your license. The owner, Donovan Beard, will also help answer any questions you have. Mr. Beard sat in for most of our training, though I think this was mostly for Mr. Nichols' benefit since he is a newer instructor. Surprising since it doesn't show. Anyway, 5/5. You'll have your license in no time.

Absolutely the best experience ever!…read more My wife and I came in on a dreary day with hopes to have some fun sighting in a new CX4 and a first firing of a new HK-VP9SK. Oh yea, how about a chance to dump some UZI and M-16 mags? We were fortunate enough to meet Chris and the guy was nothing less then a friendly professional, I have never encountered someone who was so welcoming and connected with what we wanted to do. I explained what we wanted and Chris explained the process to a "T", we couldn't have been more satisfied with his concise feedback, he's a educated rockstar of firearms. I want to adopt this guy! This is no longer "Barrons Den".........It's Northwest Arsenal!

Just over the tracks on Oregon Avenue, right beside City Hall! Its the nicest gun shop I've ever been in! If you like the decor just wait for the service! I've been a loyal customer for years and there's a good reason! The prices are lower than any other shop in the area, and if you ever have any questions just ask. They're always happy to answer any questions. While you're purchasing, why not sign up for a class or two. You're going to find out really quickly that your investment in your own safety was worth it! Even if you've been shooting for years you will find good information and have an excellent time at the Emerald Valley Range! Looking forward to seeing you there!

I would recommend this place to anyone in the area.

For an outdoor state, with lots of hunting, I've found a rather large dearth of good, outdoor…read moreranges. Plenty of indoor ones which, I suppose, makes sense due to the wet weather. But honestly, I want rough terrain, the ability to move about and shoot at different elevations, and the flexibility to set up tactical scenarios. The Albany Rifle and Pistol Club achieves all this and more. I was able to spend a day shooting here with some co-workers and, although I had toured previously, this was the first chance I got to actually use the facilities. The set-up is definitely intended for police, military, and experienced shooters. Not to say that they wouldn't welcome new and learning shooters, but I strongly, STRONGLY suggest that if you are new to the sport/defense, you have someone experienced with you if you come here. I didn't shoot on any of the indoor benches or the skeet shoot or rifle ranges, but instead headed up with the guys to the North tactical ranges. Twelve different shooting bays are stationed around a small hill, and it's first come/first served. We were able to snag a range all the way at the end, load up some barrels, and set up our targets. We spent a good day shooting, without any distractions from other shooters and without having to wait for the firing line to clear so that we could reset targets. There are a number of range rules, but rangemasters are not present on each range, so it's up to you to be safe. I prefer this, myself. The price is a little high, especially upon initial enrollment, but the price goes down from there. There are also incentives for members of law enforcement and there are a number of classes and events that are hosted here. An excellent place to go shoot in the Willamette Valley, definitely.

I started taking my daughter to classes at Embody Play Yoga about a year and a half ago and have…read morebeen taking her there ever since. My daughter had recently been diagnosed with ADHD and her therapist had mentioned yoga might help. The classes ended up being much more than just yoga. Leticia integrated mindfulness techniques with yoga and play, creating both a fun and calming atmosphere. My daughter eventually transitioned from not only classes and workshops but individuals sessions, as well. Through practice and the continued perseverance of both her and her teacher, she has grown so much and is able to self-manage and focus much better, all without the use of medication. I cannot recommend Leticia and Embody Play enough!

From the first class I observed, I knew that EPY had something more to offer than a traditional kid's yoga class. During the class, the families weren't just sitting still and learning meditation techniques. They were running around, dancing, making silly sounds; a huge smile spread across everyone's faces. The feeling of bliss and excitement in the room was palpable. My internship taught me that we all learn best when we are able to express ourselves, play and when we feel connected to those around us. EPY has a way of making every person regardless of age, gender, shape, ability or identify feel supported in exploring yoga, art, movement and mindfulness techniques. I loved my experience so much that I decided to take on a yoga teacher role with EPY after finishing my internship. It has been a joy and an honor to work for this company and I would highly recommend the classes to families and children of all ages!
