Women's Empowerment Handgun Training
Learn the skills to protect yourself and your family in these uncertain times
Postol 101
Whether you have never held a gun before, are a new gun owner, or an
experienced shooter who needs a refresher, this class will give you a solid
foundation on gun safety, operation of semi-automatic pistols, and strong
fundamentals to shoot accurately and consistently. At LAProgressiveShooters.com,
we specialize in teaching people who are new to firearms, or who have shot before
but never taken a formal lesson, in a welcoming, inclusive space that is non-
intimidating and non-judgmental. With our methodical step-by-step approach to
demystifying what firearms are and how they function, we make sure you have a
firm foundation on safety, and understand the fundamentals to be able to shoot
accurately and consistently. More info at laprogressiveshooters.com. We use Glock
pistols that shoot both .22LR and 9mm ammo. Students start with .22LR which has
very little recoil, and is less intimidating when learning to shoot guns for the first
time, and then methodically work their way up with confidence to 9mm. Because
we are inclusive of students of all abilities, we also introduce students to red dot
optics, the latest technology, making aiming and shooting less frustrating, especially
for folks who wear progressive/bifocal lenses.

Mini Classes
We are excited to announce that you can now access a variety of new, truncated classes.
These mini-classes go from 55 minutes to 2.5 hours and will allow you to learn abbreviated segments of the core curriculum in addition to the fully formatted “certified” courses (Certified Concealed Carry, Certified Basic Handgun, and Certified Home Defense Fundamentals).
This gives you the opportunity to take — and learn — shorter classes when the window of opportunity does not allow for the full-version courses. It will help you save time, give you more flexibility and allow you to explore more training options.
