Training We Offer

Our approach is calm, safety‑focused, and family‑friendly. We want you to leave feeling more confident, not more anxious.


Who we are for

We are here for YOU! We work with individuals, couples, and families who want to feel more prepared for emergencies at home, at work, and in daily life. Many of our students come through word of mouth—friends, family, and other instructors who trust our experience and teaching style.


Texting and communication

You can call or text our business number with questions about classes, scheduling, or which training is right for you. Most people contact us first by email, phone, text, or through our booking partners. We reply one‑to‑one—no group blasts, no spamming, and we will not text you with any marketing campaigns.

How texting works and your consent

When you text our number or provide your phone number when booking, you give us permission to send you SMS messages related to your inquiries, bookings, and class participation.

We use text (SMS) messaging to:

** We do not run mass text marketing campaigns.

** You can opt out of text messages at any time by replying STOP.


Privacy and your information

Vital Defense LLC respects your privacy. We use your contact information only to respond to your questions, manage class registrations and scheduling, and share important details about training you’re attending. We do not sell or share your phone number or email with outside marketers. Your information may be stored in our scheduling and communication tools so we can keep good records and provide reliable customer service. If you have any questions about how we use your information, you can call, text, or email us at any time.
