INSTRUCTOR: Critical Impact Group (Adrian Alan) - Instructor Bios

Performance shooting (or sometimes “practical shooting”) is an approach to firearms training that prioritizes the continual development and execution of shooting skills at a high-level, recognizing those skills are the foundation for all applications of the gun. Whether you are a competitive shooter, armed professional, or citizen protecting yourself or others, developing your core shooting skills is the most impactful thing you can do to increase your odds of success when you are required to perform on demand.

But what many shooters don’t understand is that performance shooting is more than simply building speed and accuracy. Performance Pistol for self-defense is designed to show students how a performance-shooting philosophy will improve real-world self-defense skills, teach them how to create drills, range plans, exercises, and even build practical shooting “stages” to train specific shooting skills. This class improves mental processing and decision-making under stress, and enhances both environmental and internal awareness.

This is an “instructor-level” course for shooters who are serious about improving their ability to self-assess, plan training, and train themselves (or others) skill that will directly benefit their performance in real-world defensive situations.

Areas covered during this class:

• Discussion of what performance shooting entails
• Mastering "hit-factor" scoring (accuracy vs speed)
• Enhancing performance-on-demand through the unexpected
• Unintended consequences of training tactics and scenarios on the range and how to avoid
• Building skills in isolation vs application
