Kelly Lasater2024-07-22Marshall came to Crossroads to do a training class for our security team. He made the class fun, but also very informative. I learned a great deal. My second class with him and hopefully not the last!Crossroads Community Church2024-07-22Marshall came out and did an amazing class for our security team. He is knowledgeable and makes the class interesting and fun. We plan to have him back as soon as we can! Thanks for a great day!Tyler Bills2024-07-03I recently took the AR-15 Level I training at DSA and I must say it was an experience that I will look back on as a checkpoint in life, one which moved me a bit closer towards becoming a more capable individual. Marshall and Garrett possess the dispositions that made the course an enjoyable and open learning environment for all levels of previous knowledge, while simultaneously bringing a seriousness towards our education and training that forced you to realize the weight of your actions when handling a firearm. They were a deep well of knowledge and experience that allowed me to trust their direction. I cannot imagine learning under different instructors. They have set the gold standard. Though it was only a 16-hour course it felt like brotherhood when I was leaving.Dave Jones2024-06-27My 14 year old son and I had the pleasure of spending two days recently with Marshall and Garrett while they taught the AR-15 Level 1 course to a group of about 10 students. I had trained with DSA a couple of times before, but this was the first opportunity to bring my oldest son along. We had a blast learning about our new rifles, (thank you for building them for us Garret Grover) and getting the chance to really practice the fundamentals of safely handling the rifle. We will definitely be back for more training. I cannot recommend this class enough.John Wozniewski2024-06-27I believe that 5 star reviews are life altering experiences not just something to give out just because a service or product was good or met expectations (that should be 3-4 stars). But every one of my courses with Marshall, his cadre and DSA has been a 5 star experience hands down. The level of training is typically only accessible to professionals or competitors so as a civilian anyone is lucky to be able to get access to this level of training and skills. The courses are fun and a great time but hard work and draining as well because you are learning alot in a short time and applying it as you go day by day. Marshall is one of the best coaches or trainers I have every met. It's one thing for a coach to be a great tactician themself. It's another thing if they are a great tactician and also a great teacher (organized, prepared, clear about instruction, feedback driven, easy to understand, approachable, articulate, etc.). I've driven 500 miles round trip & every time I've gone it's been worth it without pause or question. Whether you are only wanting to learn or hone new or existing skills and fundementals (which for civilians can be hard to find from family or friends), whether you want to really up your game, whether you are a professional that your day to day job or life depend on this training every time you go to work, you won't be disappointed and you will be coming back time and time again because it's an eye opener and game changer! Every course I've been to has had professionals in it and it shows that I'm getting the chance to get the highest level of training from the same people they trust and go to for their coaching. As well as most of those professionals will attend the same course multiple times over the years which shows how impactful and helpful it is to get repetition and keep honing the skills and absorbing more knowledge each time with out it seeming boring or redundant to do so.Shannon Jeffries2024-06-26Absolutely the best instructors with exceptional experience, knowledge and patience to teach all ranges of skill from newbie to professional. I've take 3 classes with DSA and each one surpassed all of my expectations!! The range of topics covered in detail and the experience on the line provide great takeaways that are immediately applicable outside of the class. Thank you DSA and instructors for holding a high standard for yourselves, your classes and your students!Chidi Okoye2024-06-26Quite detailed, informative and hands-on. Would recommend.Paraclete Consulting LLC2024-06-26If you are looking for quality handgun and defensive pistol training be sure to give these guys a look. Defensive Shooting Academy - Tulsa Firearm Training Is a quality company with even better people. They teach all levels of shooters and the cadre are top notch. “Slick”Vincent Tsai2024-06-26Took the AR15 Level 1 class in June 2024 with Marshall and Garrett, the team was awesome. I'm a citizen who believes in 2A, and wants to be the best gun owner I can be. I actively go the range several times a year (approx once a month). Still learned a bunch from the DSA team, the two are wealth of knowledge, who are very open to share. Light hearted, goofy at the right times, made everyone feel comfortable while being serious when it came time. Always felt safe shooting with wide range of fellow students. We had newbies who had never fired a rifle and well experienced people who served/are active. I believe everyone was able to walk away with some new knowledge. NOT all classes are built the same. I can say I felt it was worth the knowledge and experience. Thanks to the DSA team!Andrew Light2024-06-26Enjoyed the class immensely. Very informative and even ideas I already knew were presented in a way that was beneficial.
