Welcome to TrueFire Defense, a firearms academy and personal protection training school offering Home Safety, Basic to Advanced Firearms courses, and Security Guard Licensing curriculum. We offer a variety of training curriculum from personal self-defense to Occupational Licenses for armed and unarmed security guards. For our non-Law Enforcement clients, we also offer NRA Basic Pistol, Self-Defense and Concealed Carry Handgun courses.
We also offer an exclusive community, TrueFire Women (TM), created exclusively for women with custom content designed to empower and educate women to increase situational awareness, confidence and to learn life skills to protect themselves and their loved ones in everyday life.
TrueFire Defense was founded by NRA Certified Instructor, Sarah Weiler, a former law enforcement officer and Operations Manager for the private security industry. Leveraging over 20 years of experience as a police officer, crime scene investigator, firearms instructor and security manager, TrueFire Defense was created to offer a fresh and highly effective training solution for professionals and private citizens alike.
"Traditional" firearms courses often build their programs from the target backwards. The content is overly technical, tactical, and often intimidating to students who have a real desire to learn and become competent with their weapon, yet feel self-conscious and nervous about participating in a course. TrueFire Defense is fundamentally different. We have built a comprehensive, detailed, and comfortable environment which begins with you, the student, and guides you through the fundamental and advanced techniques necessary to properly and safely handle, use and store your firearm. Whether you're a first-time firearm owner or a seasoned law enforcement professional, TrueFire Defense will customize your experience, meeting you at your level of comfort and experience, and challenging you to reach your next level of skill.
