What is a Skill Builder Class?

The Skill Builder series is our answer to the difficulties of modern life. Without consistent practice, it's impossible to advance your skills. Many of our students find it difficult to break away from work or family for a full day or weekend. Because of this, we offer short-duration monthly guided instruction sessions to help you advance your skill set.

Skill Builders occur on the first viable Saturday of each month. Each session is different, focusing on a specific skill or concept. The technique is modeled and discussed, then refined with dry and live fire exercises. Each session builds on the one that came before, requiring you to solve unique shooting "problems" based on your current skill and ability.

Skill Builder sessions are meant to be fun and keep you motivated. You can also use these as a chance to work with that piece of equipment or firearm you never find time to shoot. Bring your J-frame revolver, your single-stack safe queen, a pistol caliber carbine, or your grandfather's Garand. We'll let you work through the exercises with whatever you want.

Pistol Skill Builder runs from 8:00 AM - 10:00 AM
Rifle Skill Builder runs from 10:30 AM - 12:30 PM

You will leave with new skills in the toolbox and homework for the next session.

Prior to enrolling in your first Skill Builder session, you must have completed prior formal training with Sparrow Defense or a qualified instructor teaching similar content. Successfully completing a Intermediate Training Workshop or a long-format Group Class is generally sufficient for you to attend Skill Builder sessions.
