Check our website calendar for upcoming training. Website: https://www.defenders-usa.com/courses/ Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/defenders.training/ 970-986-0774 This is a deep topic, but oh so necessary for everyday life, ESPECIALLY for those who choose to own and carry a gun. Have you made peace with GOD? Please watch this conversation that Adam & Lora have with Bible Scholar & Pastor Don Winch. If you have questions or want to know more, please reach out. Don and Karen (wife) Winch both grew up in a church that taught baptismal regeneration and salvation by good works. After serving time with the military in Ethiopia, East Africa, they returned to the U.S. By God’s grace they began attending a Gospel-peaching church they saw advertised in the newspaper. Karen was saved during one of their revival meetings, and Don was saved a year later during different evangelistic service. In 1978, after surrendering to full-time ministry and graduating from Bible college, Don and Karen with their three small children left for Africa again, this time as missionaries. They have now been in ministry for 44 years, which includes 30 years as church planting missionaries in the French-speaking countries of Cote d’Ivoire, Benin and Cameroon, Africa, and three years in Moldova, Eastern Europe. Wherever they were as missionaries, Don conducted a Bible Institute to train national leadership in ministry. In 2015, they returned to the USA for medical reasons. Since then they have served in churches as interim pastor and then joined GFA where they have served two more churches as pastor in the interim. Don had serious neck surgery July 1, 2021, that has placed him in a period of recuperation and limited mobility. They have been waiting on the Lord and praying to be directed to a nearer interim ministry as Don is no longer physically able to move to a distance. Their desire is to get back into the interim ministry even if he is unable to do as much as he used to do. They have three children who grew up in Africa and love the Lord. Two are active in their local church. The other recently moved to another state so is looking for a good church in their new area. They have 11 grandchildren.

Link below: https://firearmslegal.com/defenders-usa/ Instructor Lora Thorson’s formal firearm’s training began in 2016 when she narrowly evaded a potentially tragic encounter. Feeling completely helpless in that moment and having no way to call for help, Lora now sees that moment in time as a wake up call in her life. She had used that learning moment as a catalyst to seek out urgently needed training, approaching this new calling with the same passion and burning desire to learn and grow that she attacks everything in life. Her expertise was soon recognized and she began her own calling of helping train others in the same skills she has meticulously developed so they also would never feel helpless if and when Evil visits.

Instructors @defenders-usa are held to a high standard to always be learning, growing and challenging their skill sets. Visit https://www.defenders-usa.com/about-us/ to meet our team! Brent Hickmon is the owner of Haven Defense Co. (http://www.HavenDefenseCo.com), a custom holster manufacturing company he formed in early 2016 when he realized the need for access to better holsters and range gear after attending training with Defenders USA’s Adam Winch in 2015. Since then he has trained extensively under various Defenders USA instructors. Over the years since, Brent highly honed his skills in both handgun and rifle so much that in 2020, Adam asked him to start assisting in numerous classes, where he gained a lot of experience apprenticing as an assisting instructor and range safety officer. Brent’s training resume is largely with Adam Winch and other Defenders USA instructors, with enrollment and completions as a student, as well as an assistant instructor in many: – 3 Day “Defenders Series”, Concealed Handgun Permit Course, Fighting Rifle 1 & 2 , Combined Rifle/Pistol, Handgun Fundamentals, Handgun Speed & Accuracy, Advanced Fighting Handgun 1 & 2, Long Range Precision Rifle 1 Training outside of Defenders USA includes: – NRA Basic Pistol Instructor Certification, with Dynamic Combative Solutions’s Dave Laird. – Active Self Protection National Conference classes under John Correia (ASP), Brian Hill (The Complete Combatant), Neil Weidner (ASP), and AJ Zito (Practical Performance). – Certified Instructor and Advanced Instructor, with Rangemaster’s Tom Givens. Brent was won the coveted “Top Shot’ award in the Advanced Instructor Certification program. – Deliberate Coaching, with The Complete Combatant’s Brian Hill. Brent is the proud father of two young boys and has a magnificent wife, Marissa. They both run Haven Defense Co. full time, all while he enjoys camping, archery hunting, movies, reading, and oil painting. Brent has challenged himself to apply for the ASP instructor certification program. Details can be found on the ASPIC website at: https://www.aspinstructors.com/ The @ActiveSelfProtection Instructor Certification is not a course for entry-level instructors. To be considered for the program applicants submit: - Verification of instructor certification from a nationally recognized source (NRA, USCCA, Rangemaster, Sig Academy, etc). - A written summary of teaching experience (inside and outside the industry) and an approximation of the number of students you’ve taught. You have to already know how to shoot. -As part of your application packet you’ll submit an uncut video of yourself shooting 45 or better on Dot Torture at 3 yards, and an uncut video of yourself shooting 90 or higher on the FBI Qualification. You have to know what’s up with medical. -Verification of completion of a Stop The Bleed type trauma med course within the last 3 years. Other people need to support this. -A letter of reference from a student that has recently trained under you. You’ll have to tell us your “why”. -A statement of 1,000 words or less outlining why you believe the ASP Instructor Development program is for you. You’ll have to tell us about yourself. During the application process you’ll visit with members of our instructor cadre so we can get to know each other a bit and you can determine if this program is for you. You’ll need to travel to attend a 3 day in-person training conference. Students will be required to travel for an in-person training conference. There is only one date/location available per cohort and attendance is required for course completion. The in-person training conference for Cohort 6 is March 3, 4, 5, 2023 in Sioux Falls, South Dakota at the beautiful Alliance Range & Armory. The in-person training conference for Cohort 7 is November 3, 4, 5, 2023. Cohort 6 begins February 1, 2023 and Cohort 7 begins September 1, 2023. You’ll have to put in the time and do the work. Students can expect to spend five to seven hours per week to meet course requirements. Following a schedule we read, study, and digest about one book a month, engage in weekly Google Meets, and complete approximately seven assignments during the six month course. Students invest 120 to 150 hours to complete the course, making this equivalent to the workload of a master’s level collegiate three credit hour course. This course requires a lot, but never more than what’s do-able. Every book, assignment, Meet topic, and exercise is designed to enhance your teaching methods, your curriculum, your business and even you as a shooter. This course requires a lot, but it will also give you a lot. To our knowledge, there is nothing like this course being offered in the firearm training community, and one distinguishing factor is that you will be expected to come to this course as a professional, and do the work of a professional through out the course.
