Las Vegas, NV (Boulder City) Women’s Protector 1 Course (Jan 17-19, 2025)

  • January 17 - January 19, 2025
About this Course

How many times in the last month have you looked down at your phone or checked the news only to see another robbery, kidnapping, or shooting?

We face threats of violence every day, ranging from large-scale terrorism to one-on-one assaults. Most people are unprepared, unequipped, and untrained to respond effectively.

Most people sign up for martial arts or weapons training expecting to learn realistic self-defense, and few get it.

That’s why we’ve developed the Protector 1 curriculum to address the skills you need to successfully respond to these threats.

Are you prepared to save your life … and the lives of others?

Learn from some of the best instructors in the world, with decades of experience in shooting and fighting.

You will spend the first night learning situation awareness and having some one-on-one time with our instructors who will go through your gear setup.  The next two days will be split between the mats and the range, learning defensive tactics, weapons retention, and firearms handling.

Everyone at Sheepdog Response is very excited to see you there! If you have any questions, please feel free to email info@sheepdogresponse.com and we will get right back to you. Thanks, and have a great week!
