Re: Advice on advanced training for an older woman?

I have only seen Suarez's shoot on the move, and it makes me a little nervous in the accuracy dept.

Some people, like Tom Givens in Memphis, have noted their students have won gunfights w/bg's that only invovled 1 step offline, draw and shoot.
That's why you get training and then practice! And if you can get involved with IDPA, you can practice with some pressure at a match.

Re: Advice on advanced training for an older woman?

I am sure either one will be worthwhile. Pick the one that comes closest to the type of training you are looking for. If that doesn't help choose the instructor that comes closest to your way of thinking. It is always best to choose an instructor that is not set in his ways to the point that he produces cookie cutter students.
