SUMMARY:Close Quarter Defensive Handgun 15NOV25
DESCRIPTION:Close Quarter Defensive Handgun is a technical training module which will build upon the weapons handling skills that we introduced during Basic Defensive Handgun\, then add and refine the skills necessary for students to succeed in high stress\, high speed close range self defense engagements.  \nNote the difference between technical and tactical training. Technical training modules like this one focus on hardware and skill development\, whereas tactical training modules are focused on decision making and problem solving.  \nIf a private citizen must conduct armed self defense\, it will invariably be within an urban environment\, such as in and around cars\, parking lots\, homes\, offices\, or local businesses. Violent assault is raw\, primal\, and favors the aggressive. Thus\, all students of self-defense gunfighting should learn how to fight and move and problem solve in this realistic context.  \nIn our industry there is a magical aura around ‘Close Quarter Battle’\, you have to whisper the words…This dark magic is only for the elite\, The Special Navy Delta Recon Green Power Rangers… Yet\, once you actually get in front of one of these “Tier 1” instructors\, you realize that their professional experience has absolutely no bearing on the life and reality of normal people. You hear such nonsense as “I don’t teach CQB to civilians”\, “you cannot do CQB by yourself”\, “kneel down when reloading so your buddies can shoot over the top of your head”…Does any instructor have a program that teaches regular civilians how to fight and defend inside and around the urban environment? This is what we do. \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School. We schedule small group instruction based upon the your request. This program consists of the following 50 unique five hour modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises.

If you want to go to the public range and entertain yourself at 100 yards with your elbows on a table\, be my guest\, but that sounds boring to me. If you want to go out to public land and have stray bullets wiz past you from random strangers who don’t care about your safety\, be my guest to talk with my friend and student Mike who got shot through both legs. If you want to be forever an “experienced beginner”\, be my guest. Youtube Tactical University is always free\, but your time is valuable. Or\, take the bold first step to beginning your formal education on combat rifle craft from a seasoned professional. \nThis class is designed to provide beginners with a solid introduction to the attitude\, skill\, and knowledge you will need to succeed in the journey towards becoming expert riflemen.  \nMy name is Brian Wang. I have been teaching firearm safety\, self defense\, and the combat use of firearms for 11 years professionally.  I have been a teacher since 2006. I have trained kung fu since 2007. I completed sniper school in 2010. I have been licensed to carry a concealed weapon since 2013. I have traveled the country to learn from the best mentors and take the best instructor certification programs available. I have been to war and watched friends die. I have survived a guided missile\, helicopter rockets\, artillery bombardment\, aviation bombs\, strafing by infantry fighting vehicle cannon\, and disease on the front line. I trained\, equipped\, and in large part gave birth to the Ukrainian 47th Mechanized Brigade’s snipers and designated marksmen. I am a father and a husband and a small business owner. I have taught over 10\,000 students in Florida\, Texas\, Arizona\, Arkansas\, Nevada\, Ukraine\, and California. I own and operate at 300 acre dedicated tactical training facility only 1 hour from the bay area. It is my honor to be your instructor\, and to bring you all of this knowledge for free. \nI have striven to design a thorough hands on learning experience\, with the most detail in the shortest time possible. Expect 50% of your class to be lecture and discussion\, and 50% to be hands on with guns\, shooting\, and moving.  \nCancellations: \nIf you do not plan to attend\, notify us immediately so that we can give your spot in class to another student.

SUMMARY:Principles of Patrol 7DEC25
DESCRIPTION:Combat is the only “team sport” that humans actually compete in. Imagine someone who only punches a punching bag\, then claims he knows how to box\, or only bats in a cage against a ball throwing machine\, then claims he knows baseball. Batting is only a small part of the game. Punching is only a fraction of the whole of boxing. Someone who only knows how to shoot doesn’t know shit about fighting and winning. Shooting is a tiny percentage of the ballgame\, and it isn’t what separates winners from losers. Teamwork\, tactics\, decision making\, leadership\, communication\, mission planning\, movement\, maneuver under fire\, and shooting combined together is what it takes to make a winning team. \nLearn the tactical principles that make the United States the most powerful exporter of military might in the world. Gain the history\, context\, and lessons learned in blood\, and refined over centuries\, that allow us to win on any battlefield\, past\, present\, and future. Learn how to use a simple framework to solve problems under stress\, and to prevent preventable losses from occurring in the first place.  \nThis is a tactical problem-solving\, movement\, and teamwork exercise\, in austere field environment. It will be intense physically and mentally. It is not for the weak or the faint of heart. You will plan the mission\, insert into the area of operations\, move stealthily\, identify the proper objective to accomplish the mission\, and fight your way out of enemy contact.  \nLearn: \nMETT-TCGOTWAPACELACESergeant Major Eats Sugar CookiesWARNOFRAGOOPORDPCC/PCILDI crossingRally pointObjective rally pointLOAHand signalsNear and far recognition signalsNoise DisciplineLight DisciplineRadio DisciplineTrash DisciplineSectors of fireSetting securityRest cyclesPatrol formationsBounding movementBumping movementTravelingTraveling OverwatchLift fire/Shift fireTarget reference pointBattle drills  \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School.

SUMMARY:Principles of Atttack 7DEC25
DESCRIPTION:Think about the team sports you played as a kid growing up. I played ice hockey as a defenseman. Others of you played football\, basketball\, soccer\, lacrosse\, water polo…each of these games has a methodology of the defense\, which is how to prevent the other team from scoring\, and a methodology of the offense\, which is how to score against the other team. Humans compete in only one true “ball game” with permanent\, and history defining consequences. In fact all modern competitive sports are simply facsimiles and simulations of combat.  \nIn this class\, Principles of Attack\, learn how score\, and to win\, in the modern “ball game” of small unit infantry combat.   \nThis is a tactical problem-solving\, movement\, and teamwork exercise\, in austere field environment. It will be intense physically and mentally. It is not for the weak or the faint of heart. You will plan the mission\, insert into the area of operations\, move stealthily\, identify the proper objective to accomplish the mission\, and exercise coordination and violence in order defeat the enemy and win.   \nLearn: \nSupport by fireTarget reference pointLift fire/Shift firePACEObjective rally pointLeaders reconInfiltrationTerrain maskingLast cover and concealmentHasty attackDeliberate attackFrontal assaultFlank maneuverSkirmish formationBounding assaultMETT-TCGOTWAPCC/PCILOALACEBattle drills  \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Defensive Handgun 13DEC25
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Defensive Handgun is a full day class which will efficiently introduce novice students to the equipment\, knowledge\, and skill necessary to use a pistol or revolver safely and confidently. Students will learn safety rules\, how to load and unload\, grip\, stance\, aiming\, and shooting. All equipment and ammunition are provided\, but you can bring your own if you wish.  \nMost of our classes these days are structured with prerequisites for long term commitment customers. This full day of training is priced and organized as a stand-alone class that favors convenience for new customers who are not\, and likely will not become\, subscription based members of the Combat Rifle School. This class includes the core curriculum found in the module Basic Defensive Handgun\, as well as elements from Self Defense Theory\, Defensive Handgun Theory\, Defensive Handgun Fundamentals\, and Close Quarter Defensive Handgun. It is a one stop comprehensive introduction to everything you need to know to get started.  \nMy name is Brian Wang. I have been teaching firearm safety\, self defense\, and the combat use of firearms for 12 years professionally.  I have been a teacher since 2006. I have trained kung fu since 2007. I completed sniper school in 2010. I have been licensed to carry a concealed weapon since 2013. I have traveled the country to learn from the best mentors and have completed the best instructor certification programs available\, to bring efficient and effective training to you. I have been to war and watched friends die. I have survived missiles\, helicopters\, artillery\, bombs\, and illness and stubborn bureaucracy to bring you the best experiences possible. I have been the victim of burglary\, arson\, unlawful arrest\, and domestic violence. I have eaten bologna sandwiches in jail\, and won in court. I am a father and a husband and a small business owner. I have taught over 10\,000 students in Florida\, Texas\, Arizona\, Arkansas\, Nevada\, Ukraine\, and California. I own and operate at 300 acre dedicated tactical training facility only 1 hour from the bay area. It is my honor to be your instructor.  \nI have striven to design a thorough hands on learning experience\, with the most detail in the shortest time possible. Expect 50% of your training to be lecture and discussion\, and 50% to be hands on with guns\, shooting\, and moving. \nPrerequisite: \nNone \n\n\n\nLocation: \nOur facility is in the mountains 1 hour east of San Jose\, 1 hour south from Livermore.

SUMMARY:Introduction to Defensive Handgun 10JAN26
DESCRIPTION:Introduction to Defensive Handgun is a full day class which will efficiently introduce novice students to the equipment\, knowledge\, and skill necessary to use a pistol or revolver safely and confidently. Students will learn safety rules\, how to load and unload\, grip\, stance\, aiming\, and shooting. All equipment and ammunition are provided\, but you can bring your own if you wish.  \nMost of our classes these days are structured with prerequisites for long term commitment customers. This full day of training is priced and organized as a stand-alone class that favors convenience for new customers who are not\, and likely will not become\, subscription based members of the Combat Rifle School. This class includes the core curriculum found in the module Basic Defensive Handgun\, as well as elements from Self Defense Theory\, Defensive Handgun Theory\, Defensive Handgun Fundamentals\, and Close Quarter Defensive Handgun. It is a one stop comprehensive introduction to everything you need to know to get started.  \nMy name is Brian Wang. I have been teaching firearm safety\, self defense\, and the combat use of firearms for 12 years professionally.  I have been a teacher since 2006. I have trained kung fu since 2007. I completed sniper school in 2010. I have been licensed to carry a concealed weapon since 2013. I have traveled the country to learn from the best mentors and have completed the best instructor certification programs available\, to bring efficient and effective training to you. I have been to war and watched friends die. I have survived missiles\, helicopters\, artillery\, bombs\, and illness and stubborn bureaucracy to bring you the best experiences possible. I have been the victim of burglary\, arson\, unlawful arrest\, and domestic violence. I have eaten bologna sandwiches in jail\, and won in court. I am a father and a husband and a small business owner. I have taught over 10\,000 students in Florida\, Texas\, Arizona\, Arkansas\, Nevada\, Ukraine\, and California. I own and operate at 300 acre dedicated tactical training facility only 1 hour from the bay area. It is my honor to be your instructor.  \nI have striven to design a thorough hands on learning experience\, with the most detail in the shortest time possible. Expect 50% of your training to be lecture and discussion\, and 50% to be hands on with guns\, shooting\, and moving. \nPrerequisite: \nNone \n\n\n\nLocation: \nOur facility is in the mountains 1 hour east of San Jose\, 1 hour south from Livermore. If you need driving directions\, email admin@monarchdefense.org. \nCancellations: \nIf you do not plan to attend\, notify us immediately so that we can give your spot in class to another student.

SUMMARY:Close Quarter Battle Theory 10JAN26
DESCRIPTION:Close Quarter Battle is what the brits call simply “fighting in somebody’s house”. This module of instruction is an educational\, historical\, and contextual discussion about what\, why\, and how we arrived at the current generation of CQB doctrine\, and how military\, police\, and private citizens adapt the basic principles to suit their varying needs. \nNote the difference between technical and tactical training. Technical training modules are hardware and skill focused\, whereas tactical training modules\, such as this one\, are focused on decision making and problem solving.   \nThis class is hardware agnostic\, meaning you can use any type of weapon and gear to learn. You can bring a firearm\, or just use ours. We will employ Simunition and other non-lethal ammunition in this class\, and the school will provide you with protective equipment\, weapons\, and ammunition.  \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School. We schedule small group instruction based upon the your request. This program consists of the following 50 unique five hour modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises.

SUMMARY:Team Close Quarter Battle 17Jan26
DESCRIPTION:Modern conflicts are fought and won in and around urban environments. If a private citizen must conduct armed self defense\, it will invariably be within the urban environment\, such as in and around cars\, parking lots\, homes\, offices\, or local businesses. In this tactical training module you will practice the movement\, safety\, and problem solving aspects of single person defensive combat within buildings or tight urban confines. You will practice with live ammunition inside our shoot house\, both in the day and in the dark.   \nLearn:  \nMovement in teamsPriorities of workFootwork around doorwaysTactical decision makingPrioritizing threatsManaging doors\, windows\, adjacent spacesEmploying flashbang grenadesLive fire shoot house drillsShoot/no shoot target identification \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School.

SUMMARY:Principles of Reconnaissance 18JAN26
DESCRIPTION:The battlefield is an ever changing place\, and the winner is the one who has more information\, better information\, and who can make sound decisions faster with greater adaptability and flexibility. This means that all commanders need a steady feed of intelligence\, data\, surveillance\, and information on the terrain\, the enemy\, the weather\, and the local population\, to determine what to do next in order to win and save lives.  \nThis is a tactical problem-solving\, movement\, and teamwork exercise\, in austere field environment. It will be intense physically and mentally. It is not for the weak or the faint of heart. You will plan the mission\, insert into the area of operations\, move stealthily\, identify the proper location for your data gathering objective\, gather information useful to the commander\, and sneak out undetected.  \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School.

SUMMARY:High Intensity Gunfighting Drills 25JAN26
DESCRIPTION:High Intensity Gunfighting Drills is not designed to teach any specific techniques\, but rather provide the student with an opportunity for high repetition\, high round count guided practice\, providing a safe place to experiment and fail\, and helping the student develop confidence in his or her gun handling abilities. The value in this training module is variety. Hence each of these classes will be unique and will cater to the skill level and needs of the class. My intention is that students regularly repeat this module\, and can use this as a blank canvas to express their growth in the martial art and science of firearms for self defense.  \nThis class is part of the Combat Rifle School. We schedule small group instruction based upon the your request. This program consists of the following 50 unique training modules\, plus additional practical and field exercises. If you would like to participate in this program\, the price is $995 for the first 6 months\, then $165.83 per month thereafter.
