Private Instruction

Ideal for the person who:

  • is uncomfortable in groups
  • wants to quickly diagnose specific problems
  • wants to accelerate their shooting game in a hurry
  • wants to get supervised range time when they don't have access to a range
Private Instruction with Toni 600x400 1

Private instruction is purchased on an hourly basis (due to the need to cover vital safety information, the first time you take private instruction with Intrepid, it needs to be a two-hour session). It may include range use fees depending upon the location.

Private instruction need not be only a 1:1 ratio.  Semi-private instruction is also available (think: a private husband/wife or parent/child session, for example). 

Private instruction can take any form imaginable: private time at the range, private consultations over coffee, in-home security and defense consultations and myriad other possibilities.

If you’d like to pursue private instruction, or at least have a conversation about it, complete the Private Instruction Intake Form using the red button below.
