Women’s Firearms Training Course by Mean Girl Self Defense

Step into a supportive, high-level training environment designed for women, by women who train to win. Whether it’s your very first time touching a firearm or you’re ready to sharpen advanced tactical skills, this immersive weekend will meet you exactly where you are—and elevate you to where you want to be.

Beginner-Friendly… Without Being Basic

We start at the true foundation:

• Understanding firearm safety in a calm, controlled, confidence-building way
• Getting comfortable holding, loading, and manipulating a firearm for the first time
• Establishing a strong stance, grip, sight picture, and trigger control
• Learning how to move, breathe, and problem-solve under pressure
  

No ego. No judgment. No “just figure it out.”

Just clear instruction, hands-on guidance, and an environment built to help women feel capable and safe from the very first moment.

Skill Progression: Basics → Intermediate → Advanced

As you grow more confident, the training follows your pace. Throughout the weekend, you’ll build:

Intermediate skills

• Draws from holster
• Reloads and malfunctions

Advanced skills
