The Leaders in Women's Concealed Carry
Are you tired of feeling like concealed carry may not be possible for you?
- Learn how to conceal carry: We will teach you everything we know about concealed carry to ensure that you leave the retreat comfortable and confident with your abilities to handle and carry a firearm.
- Learn how to respond in case of an emergency: What sets our retreat apart is the fact that we focus on more than just shooting. We incorporate medical training, situational awareness, and force on force training. You will have the chance to test your skills under stress and have fun while doing it!
- Grow the confidence to be able to practice when you get back home: Most people don't practice at home simply because they aren't sure exactly what or how to practice! You will go home knowing what you need to work on, making it easy to continue training in the comfort of your home.
By securing your spot in the retreat today, you will also gain access to a free shooting journal downloadable PDF and free registration to our 8 Week Virtual Course (excludes private coaching calls).
The time for action is now. Don't let this opportunity slip through your fingers – grab your spot and unlock your potential as a responsibly armed American!

Here is what you can expect
From The Industry's First Faith Based Shooting Event
Picture this: A community of loving, like-minded women who want to welcome you and see you succeed! You are not in this alone, many alumni sat in your shoes before coming to their first RLP event. I've even been told that some of them signed up and almost didn't come because they were afraid of not being skilled enough!
I can tell you, that is not the case. We ensure that every student is fit into the right group from the first day in order to ensure that you receive the best instruction tailored to your needs. We meet you where you are at!
You can expect to be pushed past your comfort zone for sure, but its for a purpose. That purpose is to show you what you are truly capable of and help you grow in your skillset and abilities. We want you to meet your full potential. The great news? That you'll be alongside dozens of women who are in the same boat, which is why our program is so successful in growing a community that sticks with each other even after the event.
Still unsure? Let me walk you through the whole plan for the weekend! Of course, the itinerary is subject to small changes, but this is the overall jist of how things will go.
We do check-in on Friday afternoon, here is where you will receive further details about the weekend, check into your on-site cabin room, and meet some of the staff. Then, we will set you up with one of the coaches to do an initial fundamentals session to make sure you are fitted into the right group, as well as go over the safety basics with you in a one on one setting. Then, we will join up together as a big group to do staff introductions and ice breakers which lead into our first Bible study (which is optional to attend). Afterwards, we plan on grilling some hot dogs and hanging out and getting to know each other.
The second day will start off with a quick breakfast then students will go into their groups for the day. One group will participate in the Concealed Carry Techniques Course while the other goes to the Emergency First Aid and scenarios course. Keep in mind that the shooting course will slightly vary each event depending on your group. Halfway through the day we will eat lunch, then swap groups. You can expect at the end of the day to be tired but full of new knowledge and motivation to continue your training. After a day's worth of training, we will eat together at a nearby restaurant and close with a group Bible Study.
The last day will start off with a Sunday morning Bible Study. Then, we will go straight into the themed course which will depend on which retreat you are signing up for (each event is different). This will be followed by lunch and wrapped up with a Shooting Under Stress Course and competition, so bring your game face!
Keep in mind no matter your background, skill level, size, age, etc., we have designed this program for you. Just show up and let us take care of the rest! We promise you this will be the life changing experience you have been looking for.
