One of the hardest things for me as an instructor has been
finding venues that I could use that made my classes affordable. I prefer a small class to a mega class, I
think the smaller group is more comfortable for new shooters. Recently I conducted a class for a group of
neighbors in someone’s home. We
improvised a screen using a white paper table cloth held up with blue tape,
determined a safe direction, and…had a ball!
That sparked an idea of how to teach the classroom portion in an
affordable way…Borrowing from brilliant marketers like Tupperware, Mary Kay…
the Gun Class Party!
Why not? You and a
few of your friends, comfortable, cozy, learning together, built in shooting
buddies…For a First Steps class we don’t need a lot of room, we do need a safe direction and a little
advance prep by the instructor can go a long way.
Then, with the money we save, we can afford to rent the range for just us!
The next generation of instruction! Have fun and be safe!
