Testimonial
My daughters have been enrolled in Primed Defender Academy classes for over a year now, they have learned so much about defending themselves, how to use their voice to get out of uncomfortable situations and self-discipline. They have more confidence in themselves than they ever have. I highly recommend enrolling your kids in one of the many classes they offer. I'm very happy with the results.

As a mother, I wanted to improve my confidence with my concealed carry so I sought out private lessons with Dawson Cassinelli. I was NOT disappointed! Dawson has an awesome approach that makes one feel safe, focused, and encouraged to execute new skills well. Dawson walked me through step by step, from the mechanics of my new carry to tactics with dry firing to improve my marksmanship, and the many tweaks that needed to happen; along with helpful drills to practice for many self-defense scenarios. To any other ladies considering training with Primed Defender, I strongly recommend it! Dawson is not one of these cocky and aggressive instructors that intimidate you or make you feel uncomfortable, nor does he make you feel less than for being a girl on the range or for asking questions that may come off as ridiculous. Dawson, and his wife, Bailey (Mrs. Primed Defender) are a power couple who have a passion for improving their clients' self-defense. I also train with Bailey, and ladies, I promise you these two will drastically improve your confidence and you will feel AND see a huge improvement in your skills! So, get after it!
