I'm glad I found PPA because they have tons of classes from first aid to concealed carry. Their…read morewebsite is very easy to navigate, the classes are affordable, and the instructors are very patient. I've taken classes with Erin and a class with Mike. The class I took with Mike was the red dot 101 and I was thinking it would be a whole lot of shooting. It was more lecture than shooting in my opinion but the lecture is definitely what you need. Mike was on it, he was patient, a little funny but professional at the same time. He made sure everyone was understanding the process. I can't wait to take another class with PPA because I had a great time and a I learned a lot. Mike you're a genius!

Loved working with Erin, Mike, and Zack!…read more Erin's Basic Firearms Class was exceptional! She's very thorough, realistic, and straightforward with her training. I noticed she is repetitive to allow us to build muscle memory when she observes a bit of a struggle when there is a lot to remember! And she is great at it and for our own good. She is very knowledgeable about her firearms and she allowed us to get familiar with each of them. Mike, Zack, and Erin's Initial CCW course was 2-days on the range and in the class. We had a mix of renewals, initials, and edits (adding or amending firearms) and a large class amongst the three instructors was impressive! They worked in sync moving large groups in waves and in order of their respective courses. Safety was always first and foremost, range logistics and emergency action plan was discussed and designated/shared roles amongst the class. Mandatory ears and eye protection are a must when the range opens at 0900 sharp! No exceptions. Mike and Zack covered a lot of classroom instruction and are very knowledgeable about gun laws and state policies. They talked a lot about de-escalating situations and disengaging with bad company ALWAYS! The goal is always to get home safe to your family. Zack said it best, something to the sort of "I hope that I die past 80 years of age and never having to defend myself in a gun fight" I highly recommend Personal Protection Academy for all your self defense training and firearms training needs! I would definitely enroll in other classes !

I have trained with Tony many times and he is professional and very knowledgeable. Tony is very approachable and easy to interact with. You will definitely learn and feel confident in your abilities when you leave. A reason I like VTS is that you can go for them for more than one thing. Firearms, 1st aid or AED trading can all be done in one place. Affordable too. By trainers who have been there and done that. You'll be glad you took that class.

The instructor was solid, knowledgeable, patient, and did a really good job breaking everything down without overcomplicating it. The class itself was well run, and I felt like I actually learned something useful rather than just checking a box. They also sell guns, accessories, ammo and offer additional classes and trainings, plus they provide FFL services. I'd definitely recommend them! -Michael
