EXPLORE
TRAINING COURSES
From foundational firearm safety to advanced defensive skills, our courses are designed to empower you to become the confident protector you are called to be. Every session focuses on practical, real-world training that prepares you with safe, decisive skills and unwavering confidence for any threat.
WHY TRAIN WITH US?
At Heritage Defense Group, we believe training should be realistic, purposeful, and rooted in the values that matter—faith, family, and the responsibility to protect ourselves and those we love. Whether you're a complete beginner or an experienced shooter looking to sharpen your skills, our instructors provide patient, professional, and practical guidance tailored to your level. Every course is hands-on and confidence-building, equipping you with real-world capability to defend and protect what really matters.
OUR VALUES
FAITH
Our faith in Christ teaches us to be vigilant and wise stewards of the lives and blessings God has given us. We see preparedness and protection not as fear, but as faith in action — living out the biblical call to guard what is good, provide for our households, and stand ready to serve others in times of need.
FAMILY
We believe the family is the foundation of our faith, our community, and our nation. Everything we do is designed to strengthen, equip, and protect families — helping them build a legacy of faith, courage, and preparedness that endures for generations.
HERITAGE
True heritage is more than what we inherit — it’s what we pass down. We are committed to teaching principles of faith, readiness, and stewardship so that future generations will stand strong in their beliefs and confident in their ability to defend their families and freedoms.
