I hadn't fired a pistol in a while and started the process of obtaining my CCW. To get acclimated,…read moreI took the basic pistol course through First Step Shooting. Daniel was a great instructor who made the class interesting and easy to follow. He gave excellent instruction and we felt safe when we went to the live shooting portion. He gave me a few tips and techniques that definitely helped as I continued to familiarize myself with my new pistols. When it was time to take my CCW course, I returned to Daniel and things went great as well. The class is twice the length, but he was still able to keep it entertaining and engaging. The only thing I'd change is when it comes to the mental health portion. He makes it known that he doesn't like the fact that he has to teach that portion because he's not a mental health expert. He's not a lawyer, but has no issue teaching the legal portions. He's not a health expert but brings someone in to discuss dressing wounds, tourniquets, etc. So it would be nice to have him embrace the importance of the mental health portion of the class. Outside of that, the class is great! If you're looking for a basic pistol course or getting your CCW, I highly recommend Daniel and First Step Shooting.

I had a great time and look forward to working with him more in the future.

I was schedule for a cleaning. Got there and Sean looked at my weapons and said these don't really need cleaning. They're just dry. He oiled them up, fixed a pin on my safety and sent me on my way. They wouldn't accept even the smallest gratuity. They could have charged me hundreds of dollars for cleanings but instead provided a free service and a smile. Truly great Americans. This is how business is done. I'll only go to Sean or Ken for my gun smithing, cleaning, and mod needs. God bless yall.

We had a blast over the weekend at the range with Paula and her awesome team…read more I mean Paula has a level of skill that I aim to have one day. Despite the intense heat we had fun and no one got sunburned. They had shade, cold water available, parking is very close so you can go sit down in your car and turn on the AC if you need to. All equipment is available to you if you need it. I brought my friend who has never even seen a gun in person. Paula and her team were so professional, she even got a one on one first. They took their time to be with her and help her. She left very capable of managing an arm if she ever needs to. She had a blast and it was another level of empowerment for her. My other friend is a great shooter. He decided to still take the safety course because we always learn something new. He had a blast too and enjoyed the experience. We will definitely be coming back because I need more practice and we all know that here in California it's difficult for me as a female to get into the range. I recommend this club and would suggest that you try checking it out at least once.

Gracie Beverly Hills (GBH) is a great choice for jiu jitsu, whether you are a beginner or a player…read morewith experience. After researching options, I chose to join this school. If you don't know, GBH is affiliated with Gracie University: the home of BJJ in the United States founded by UFC creator Rorion Gracie, the visionary son of Helio Gracie (the originator of Brazilian Jiu Jitsu). In short, if you believe pedigree matters, look no further. Gracie University is now run by Rorion's sons, Ryron and Rener, who continue to develop the Gracie philosophy, which aims to encourage and retain students. Mike Everett, GBH's owner, is a Gracie black belt (search YT for "flowmaster mike") and runs the academy as a "Level 4" training center. This means GBH has programs suited for players with widely different goals. Whether motivated to learn self-defense or prefer to test yourself in competition, there are classes and players here that will work with you to achieve those goals in a friendly and cooperative atmosphere. The Gracie system lets the individual work at his/her own pace. As a Level 4 training center, GBH's program is authorized to instruct in techniques that can lead to the coveted Gracie black belt. At GBH, classes are structured to develop students wholistically, from a Combatives program that teaches the basics to a Masters Cycle program that allows more advanced students to grow. Also, there are private lessons as well as a great kid's program, with students young and old, male and female. All classes are structured to give students exposure to a wide variety of techniques, including the opportunity to test and perfect them through sparring. The facilities are conveniently located in the heart of Beverly Hills, with a friendly staff and patronage. Importantly, the mats are clean and well maintained. Also, there are private changing rooms and showers, which are not always found at other schools. I made the decision to join 5 years ago, and it was one of the best decisions I ever made.
