This week I began the Spring 2011 Training Season. Since I really started as a full time trainer, the spring has always been a busy time, but the last few have really distinguished themselves as being incredibly packed with courses. Having courses back-to-back is always a great thing, but bouncing all around the country without much rhyme or reason to the schedule can start to get old. So, last summer and fall, I started looking further ahead as the schedule was set up for 2011 and I managed to get a pretty good run of courses set up to allow for convenient travel.<\/p>\n

The First Class of the Spring 2011 Training Season. Combat Focus Shooting, Philadelphia, PA.<\/p><\/div>\n

This week, the Spring Training Season kicked off in Philadelphia, PA with an over-full course of 14 students at Frank’s “Double Tap” Indoor Range<\/a>. It was a great course with a motivated and diverse group of students, including some guys from the area I grew up and one friend I’ve known for about 25 years! In<\/p>\n

Bruce hosted and participated in the Philly CFS Course!<\/p><\/div>\n

April, I’ll be teaching courses in Virginia<\/a>, Ohio<\/a>, Tennessee <\/a>& Arkansas<\/a> and then I’ll continue teaching courses as I make my west until I end up at the Firearms Academy of Seattle<\/a> in Washington and finally teaching near Portland, Oregon<\/a> in mid June.<\/p>\n

Of course, it isn’t a perfect <\/em>schedule… I’ll be leaving the car at some stops and flying back to the east a couple of times for events, Taping (Season Three of S.W.A.T. Magazine TV <\/a>& Personal Defense Network<\/a> DVDs!) and some courses that just couldn’t be passed up regardless of the location!<\/p>\n

I am really looking forward to making my way across the USA this spring teaching, learning from and getting know a couple hundred students… I hope that some readers of the DRTV Blog will be included! There are still some slots left in some of the courses, for a complete course schedule check out the Combat Focus Shooting <\/a>website calendar!<\/p>\n
