DTI gives peace of mind

You have probably heard about the power of positive thinking. While there is nothing wrong with being positive in general, if you encounter a real-life threat scenario, warm thoughts and luck won’t do much to keep you safe, or give you peace of mind about how safe you might actually be; not to mention your family.

If you encounter an actual threat scenario, for example, an active shooter, the best way to protect yourself and avoid injury with the proper training. Training courses, like those offered at DTI in Arkansas in firearms defense, classes for an Arkansas concealed carry handgun license, and self-defense can all offer you greater peace of mind as well as give you an advantage when dangerous situations become a reality.

As unpleasant as it may be, fear is critical to your survival. Without experiencing fear, you wouldn’t respond appropriately to danger and might even deliberately put yourself in harm’s way. Several physiological events occur when your body responds to an immediate threat.

However, the way in which they manifest themselves varies from one person to the next. In other words, one person may respond to fear quite differently than another. Without knowing how you’re likely to respond, you may not be able to take the right action when the time comes. By having an Arkansas concealed carry license and understanding the basics of fear, you will be better able to defend yourself if necessary.

Today, the fact that it is not unusual to hear of a public, mass shooting, a robbery in broad daylight, or a physical attack by a criminal on an unarmed victim is a sad truth. Protecting yourself and your family against such crimes, as well as providing peace of mind, can come in the form of a concealed weapon, which requires a state issued concealed carry weapon license.

In the state of Arkansas, the Arkansas State Police must certify any individual that wants to offer a concealed carry course. Set in central Arkansas, DTI is an Arkansas State Police certified concealed carry course provider (lic. #10-606). Course instructor, Bernie Major, is a 6-year military veteran who prides himself on being thorough and diligent with each license applicant. The application process is two-fold. First, applicants must complete the concealed carry license course. Second, each applicant must demonstrate knowledge of their weapon by firing it properly in front of a course instructor.

Testimonials

Thank you very much for such a great afternoon! I can't believe how much I learned in such a short amount of time. Your passion for training and teaching is way above anything I could have expected. My wife, mother-in-law, and aunt all would like to take your CHCL class, and possibly some self-defense training as well. I am also going over my schedule to open up some time to come in for some of the other training classes you offer.

To the Samurai, they gave their lives to their Lord. So when it came time to fight, they had nothing to lose. We have everything to live for, and the lessons from ancient warriors are still being taught. The art of the fight, the mastery of skill is beautiful with the ultimate goal being the dominance of good over evil and the moral obligation to protect those who cannot protect themselves. Join me in the journey.
