About

Thank You for choosing Family First Defense for your training experience, including safety certification for your carry license, and advanced skills.

We are located in North Central Florida (Gainesville) area where most of our classes are held. We also travel throughout the South Eastern States and hold classes for other Instructors, Businesses, Organizations and Families interested in private training or customized training.

Everything we do is geared toward the “Personal and Family Defender” and we strive to make certain that the defender is well trained in Mind, Body, Spirit, and with Defensive and Protective abilities to protect themselves and those around them.

While you might choose to only take the State of Florida required class for your license (Florida Concealed Firearm or Weapon License Class), we recommend that you consider advanced training to increase your skills.

Our complete training program is a series of classes that encompasses aspects of personal, family and group defense. It requires work and dedication for the serious defender but will provide any student at any level the tools to help defend and protect.

All of our training staff is Certified by NRA (National Rifle Association), USCCA (United States Conceal Carry Association), along with certifications from agencies and prominent training organizations in both the US and International Organizations, including Civilian, Law Enforcement and Military.

All Instructors are certified as Range Safety Officers (RSO) and / or Chief Range Safety Officers (CRSO) which is important to insure that all training is presented in a safe environment.

We take our job as instructors very serious and endeavor to exceed the learning experience you expect.

Our Guarantee… If you are not satisfied with any of our classes, you will be refunded on the spot and at the class. No questions asked.

You may contact us at anytime by calling 352-283-8340 or emailing: info@familyfirstdefense.com and we will respond quickly to your concerns or questions.
