Start Your Training Journey

reality-based behavior journey

In real life, the moments that matter rarely unfold the way we expect.

Training isn’t just about learning a skill—it’s about how you respond when unpredictability, stress, and split‑second decisions collide. This journey isn’t built around perfect conditions or scripted drills, it’s built around preparing you for the unscripted, unplanned, and very real moments that test your instincts, your judgment, and your ability to act with clarity under pressure.

You’ll explore how stress affects behavior, how decisions get made in a flash, and how to sharpen your mindset so you stay effective when everything around you feels uncertain. Whether you’re new to this or already familiar with tactical thinking, this experience will deepen your ability to stay composed, make better decisions, and trust yourself when it counts.

I just took the every day close quarters contact course (EDCQC). taught by Trevor Thrasher. It is an excellent course. The discussion/lecture session at the start of the class is very good. He provides a framework about how to address dangerous situations involving intruders in your home. In the active learning scenarios I was presented with many situations I was not mentally prepared to deal with immediately. Making me think through these situations now before I actually am confronted with them in life gives me a fighting chance to get it right and save a loved one. The tactical portion of the class is expert and participants get many repetitions in many environments to learn how to safely search room.

Took my CHP and Lynn was very educational, the class was actually really informative and fun! My husband and I did it as a date and it was worth it! Thank you Lynn!!

I had a great experience at 88. The staff is very helpful. The teachers I've had were amazing (Tod and Patricia), and their RSO'S are really good too. Carson helped me put on my iron sites and stood with me until the aim on my new purchase was perfect. He went above and beyond. The food and drink upstairs is really good too. All of the servers in the founders club are very nice and helpful. If you have the time, definitely check it out. It's a fun place with great staff.

Outstanding facility and faculty. Took CHP training course and its worth going here for that training. Josh was the instructor and kept the material engaging, even through the legal descriptions. Which is impressive as I've done several other training courses over the years. Looking forward to some range time and future training through 88 Tactical.

This is one of the finest examples of what the industry is calling a GUNTRY CLUB, a country club for the firearms enthusiast. Our family has enjoyed 88 Tactical since day one. Martial arts classes. Unarmed self-defense. Training classes for firearms; ranges; classes for rifles, pistols, medical trauma care; outdoor survival and more.
