A high intensity white light is a compact and powerful tool for personal defense. It can typically be carried anywhere in the world to provide protection in locations where other weapons are not permitted.

The content of Flashlight Combatives is geared toward the average citizen who wants to carry a flashlight in addition to a knife and/or handgun. We briefly cover shooting techniques with hand-held lights, but students in this one day class will learn, practice and test methods for using hand-held flashlights as searching, lighting, deterrence and impact tools. This class has minimal lecture time to focus instead on practical techniques and dynamic, combative lessons. As with all Mindset Laboratory classes, you will not leave without personally testing what you have learned.

This class is not so physical that you need to be in perfect shape to attend, but you will be expected to move and participate in active drills. Any prior injuries and disabilities can be easily accommodated.

Required gear:

• Hand held high intensity flashlight (loaners available)
• Fresh batteries for your light
• Pen or pencil and paper for taking notes
• Drinking water and snacks

Optional gear:

• Bluegun and holster (Glock 19 loaners available)

Prerequisites: None
Class length: One Day
Class times: 9 AM – 5 PM

This class is the perfect first step for the long-time gun owner or recent novice. You will learn better ways to carry and draw a pistol and be introduced to useful tactics for before, during and after a deadly encounter.

Intro to Force on Force is built around the philosophy that the best way to retain defensive concepts is to learn them in context. Rather than start students on live fire exercises in an artificial 180 degree environment, why not use modern tools and techniques to give them skills in gun handling and defensive shooting for real environments?

We start off slow with plenty of blue gun work to safely model proper form and technique then move to firing marking rounds against static and dynamic attackers. The class concludes with a single scenario-based exercise to bring all of the concepts learned together and test them under stress.

This class is not so physical that you need to be in perfect shape to attend, but you will be expected to move and participate in active drills. Any prior injuries and disabilities can be easily accommodated.

Required gear:

• Comfortable Clothing
• Pants and a belt capable of supporting a holster
• Groin Protection (Cup)
• Pen or Pencil and paper for taking notes
• Drinking Water and Snacks

Optional gear:

• Bluegun (Glock 19 Loaners Available)
• Holster for a Glock 17 or Glock 19
• Spare mag carrier

This class picks up where the Intro to Force on Force class leaves off. It is a full day of scenario-based exercises to develop and test the student’s actions under stress. Role players provide various levels of pressure and conflict in realistic scenarios.

Are you really ready to successfully defend yourself before, during and after an armed conflict?

Beyond an initial safety lecture, there is no formal classroom portion of this course. Each scenario will teach you more than any lecture ever could.

Prior to taking this course you must have taken Mindset Lab’s Intro to Force on Force or another approved FoF or live-fire pistol class. Please send an email to info@mindsetlab.com if you have questions about this policy.

Graduates of Mindset Lab’s Intro to Force on Force class can step up their preparation by turning down the light levels. Many attacks happen in reduced light, so in this class we cover skills and tactics that work even when your eyes aren’t able to rely on daylight to do their job. Hand-held and weapon-mounted lights will be used in conjunction with blueguns and marking pistols to learn and then test various techniques in skills-based and scenario-based FoF.

Please note that depending on location this course may start later in the day to allow more hours in low light and darkness.

Required gear:

• Hand-held and weapon-mounted lights (loaners available)
• Comfortable clothing
• Groin protection (cup)
• Pen or pencil and paper for taking notes
• Drinking water and snacks

Learning to fight with firearms requires more than just shooting skill. In a defensive situation, there may be times when you have a gun in your hand and you cannot shoot an attacker due to legal, tactical or ethical reasons. Even if your gun is empty or malfunctioned, you can still use it to great effect as a striking weapon. Additionally, if you are close enough to hit someone with a firearm, they are close enough to take it away from you.

This Firearm Combatives and Retention course will give you a foundation in better ways to use handguns and long guns as impact weapons as well as provide you some techniques to retain your own weapons so that they are not used against you.

As with all Mindset Laboratory classes, this course is not just theory. We train combative techniques that will still work when you are under stress and then we test them so you leave the class knowing what YOU are capable of.

This class is not so physical that you need to be in perfect shape to attend, but you will be expected to move and participate in active drills. Any prior injuries and disabilities can be easily accommodated.

Required gear:

• Groin protection (cup)
• Pen or pencil
• Drinking water and snacks

Optional gear:

• Bluegun and holster (Glock 19 loaners available)
• Bluegun long gun

Think for a second about the amount of time you spend in and around vehicles. Commuting, road trips, runs to the grocery, driving your family out to dinner… While you may feel safer seated inside your car with the doors locked, you are still very vulnerable to most attacks. Thin steel and breakable glass are all that separate you from an attacker’s bullets, bat, brick or blade.

Defending yourself requires specialized tactics and techniques when seated in a vehicle. Drawing a pistol can be difficult while wearing a seatbelt and the cramped confines of the passenger compartment will restrict your ability to move.

This class will start the day with skills-based exercises on shooting out of and around cars and then we will spend the rest of the day testing our capabilities in scenario-based Force on Force. As with all Mindset Lab classes, you will learn tactics to keep yourself safer, but more importantly, you will strengthen your Mindset.
