🎯 WHAT’S YOUR NEXT TARGET? 🎯
Maybe your goal is to:
✅ Shoot your first competition
✅ Improve your accuracy
✅ Take a class you’ve been nervous to try
✅ Build confidence
✅ Improve your health
✅ Say “yes” to new opportunities
Or maybe your goals extend beyond the range.

Our Vision Board Workshop is designed to help you get clear on where you’re headed and create a roadmap to help you get there.
During this focused two-hour experience, you’ll reflect on what matters most, identify areas for growth, and create a personalized vision board you can return to throughout the year.
You’ll leave with more than a vision board.
You’ll leave with clarity.

✨ MEMBER SPOTLIGHT: KRISTINA ✨
Kristina is a wife, mom of three, creative soul, and one of the many women who discovered confidence in unexpected places through Lady Sentinel.
She and her husband originally bought their first handgun during quarantine, thinking it was simply a practical decision. Before long, learning together became date nights at the range, conversations over dinner, and eventually a journey that would push her far beyond her comfort zone.
When Kristina attended her first Lady Sentinel session, she found more than firearm education — she found community.
One of her biggest fears? Shotguns.
“The last time I tried to shoot a shotgun, my shoulder was bruised for a week.”
She signed up for Boomsticks planning to simply observe. By the end of class, she not only understood how shotguns worked… she shot one herself and left feeling proud instead of intimidated.
Since joining Lady Sentinel, Kristina has also discovered a love for competition shooting, describing the experience of hearing women cheer her on “like a rock star” as a moment that changed how she saw herself.
“I joined expecting to learn a skill, but I found something far greater — confidence, community, and the courage to see myself differently.”
Thank you, Kristina, for sharing your story and reminding us that growth often begins just outside our comfort zone. 💜

What a fun afternoon at our Women’s Self-Defense Workshop. 💪😂
This class was filled with laughter, movement, teamwork, and practical training designed to build real confidence.
Women worked through partner drills, leverage-based techniques, and real-world scenarios in a supportive environment where learning and humor went hand in hand.
Shoutout to Phil for being an excellent sport during training drills. 😂
One of the best parts of the day was seeing women laugh, learn, and realize just how effective these techniques can be with the right training and reps.
That’s what Lady Sentinel is all about.
Ladies — let us know in the comments if you’d like to see more classes like this in the future. 👇

What if confidence wasn’t something you were born with… but something you built through reps?
Not movie-scene confidence.
Not “I hope this never happens” confidence.
Real confidence.
The kind that comes from training your mind and body to respond under pressure instead of freezing.
Join us for an afternoon of practical women’s self-defense training focused on awareness, movement, leverage-based techniques, and realistic partner drills designed for real-world situations.
And yes… it’s also FUN. 😊
You’ll learn.
You’ll move.
You’ll probably laugh.
You might surprise yourself.
Because this isn’t about living in fear.
It’s about being more prepared if and when life asks something difficult of you.
No experience needed. Just come ready to learn in a supportive environment alongside other women.
