If you have ever seen a car crash, work with machinery, are into outdoor sports or activities or just understand that things happen in this world that are dangerous, this is a class you should take. You'll be able to help in an emergency medical situation until EMT/EMS can arrive on scene. This is potentially life saving information that never hurts to have. This class has not only class room lessons but also physical lessons. You'll even participate in real world examples where you will have a chance to be "medic" and a "victim" so you'll have a better understanding of how to react in such situations. The instructor was informative and made sure that everyone understood the material and could apply it as well. Definitely worth taking if you ever want to be able to help out in an emergency situation.

Fantastic class! The class was full of a ton of great information that was super up to date and full of real world examples. Breaking up the slide show information with practical hands on demos really makes they day go by super fast. You get so much info and you feel like you just got started. The end of the day is spent putting together all of the skills you have learned into mock real world situations. Those lead to a higher level of stress and really make you apply the lessons that were learned through out the day. I can't recommend this class enough, it was absolutely awesome.

This is a great class. I have taken it twice about 9 months apart. The class is always improving and evolving. The most important part of the class is the instructor. Shawn can change and adapt his teaching style to the audience needs, can explain why he is directing things to occur in a certain way, wants and desires feedback.

The hands on practical is critical. Take the class and when it comes back again take it as an alumni for $50 and you will learn even more.

Shawn's Civilian Medical class is extremely valuable and well presented. It shocked me how up to speed he is on even the smallest details. If you own a firearm or want real-world life saving education this a fantastic class to take.

I took this class with some hesitation (never like "first aid" stuff). After the first 10 minutes, I was hooked! Shawn is a great instructor by making it interesting, easy to understand, and fun. I have sat through the class twice now, and looking forward to doing it again!

We (River Valley Arms and Ammo in Minnesota) cosponsored the civilian medical I class this summer and i was very impressed with the class.
I am an EMT with experience in this type of medical training and this is BY FAR the best, most put together civilian medical training I have seen. The information in this class gives ANYONE the knowledge and training to help save lives.
Shawn is a fantastic instructor that presents material in a way that gets through to students from any background, medical training or someone who has no experience in it.

Civilian Medical 1 via Kenaz Tactical Group. I had initially taken this class because I have two young children. I made the decision 6 years ago to carry to protect them. Carrying for defense is only a small portion of that though. I chose this class as it was hosted by KTG. To be honest it was the most in depth, affordable, and easily accessible class I could find.

The information given is presented very well. It's more than obvious Shawn is well versed in the subject. Takes this class very seriously. I appreciate that. Everything from his presentation to the scenarios is well thought out and incredibly well carried out.

The scenarios do an amazing job at creating stress. The first scenario sidelined me. I didn't realize how effective it would in conveying how ill prepared I was going into the class.

This honestly the one class I will take every year. As well as the first class I would recommend anyone take when going for firearms training. The class is constantly evolving. You can really see that Shawn puts all his effort into making this the best class he can every time.

This is an awesome class, Shawn makes it very easy to understand

— John J

I have taken this class 3 times and this class becomes more realistic for me every time. I will definitely take this class again and again. Shawn is very professional, and with English being my second language I was able to understand everything he teaches very clearly. Thank you Shawn for a great class, see you next time!

— Jose Ramirez

I have attended Shawn's medical class twice, and both times I gained even more confidence in being able to confidently use these skills to help save myself, a loved one, or even a complete stranger in their most medical times of need. Shawn's method of teaching really helps you obtain the knowledge you need to retain everything you learn. Beyond firearms, this is the most important life saving training you will ever find. My advice, go sign up and then sign up a friend and family member. You truly wont regret paying a little now to save a lot later! #WLSISLIFE

The best training experience I've had hands down. Beyond being "TCCC" certified the Instructors were extremely helpful and awesome to work with. This course offers all aspects of training in a seamless and effective manner. Combining a intuitive presentation along with hands on simulation with as close to the real thing application coupled with adrenaline pumping live action scenarios. Did I mention "TCCC" certified. After this class you'll be yelling "FROM THE ROOF TOPS" how awesome it is, "AT THE END OF THE DAY" i give this class "171" percent and look forward to future classes.
Thanks and Shoot Straight.
