Who We Are
Miami County of Ohio Defensive Shooting School is dedicated to providing the highest degree of tactical training available. Male and female NRA certified instructors with law enforcement, military, and shooting school experience. We are dedicated to our students and you will find no self-serving attitudes, power trips, or arrogance here. We are instructors that simply enjoy teaching, shooting and making new friends while doing something we all love. These classes are fun and if you like shooting, you will have a blast (no pun intended).

We concentrate on the three basic areas of personal defense:
