Confident, Safe & Empowered: Handgun Classes for Women

classes for women

SVA Gun Training lead Instructor Claudia McCue, being a woman herself, knows a thing or two about what a woman wants in a firearms training class. Even better, she knows what it's like to learn how to shoot long after you're "all grown up" and decide, in mid-life, that changing social conditions are such you might just need a gun.

With a decade of shooting experience, hundreds of hours under nationally known trainers, and three years of teaching NRA and USCCA classes, Claudia established her own female-friendly courses in 2024. Her EmpowerSAFE! classes focus on things women care about, and which may be missing from other firearms training - female body shapes, physical strength, clothing preferences and accommodating family.

Claudia designed her classes to show women that not only can they learn to shoot well, but that it's an important and satisfying skill to develop. And they can do it without having to become a "gun girl" or making guns a focal point of their lives. Her teaching style creates an empowering learning environment, and her empathetic approach really helps those who struggle with getting past that initial anxiety/fear/intimidation barrier.

It's all available to you, right here in East Texas. But EmpowerSAFE! classes are small, so each student gets individual attention. And each one only runs a few times per year. Her How to Shoot a Handgun, How to Carry and Draw from a Holster, Handgun Cleaning and Maintenance, and Less Lethal Incident / Pepper Spray classes fill up quickly, so don't delay.
