I found Gina on Instagram and decided to take my daughter and a friend to a introductory firearms course. She was so patient, very well versed, super safe and created such a welcoming environment, we all learned something while facing a fear with her guidance. After many more classes, one on one and groups, I am forever grateful I followed this lady on Instagram and went with my gut to take her course. I feel much more proficient, always practice safety, and have conquered a fear in turn finding my own inner strength and confidence with this new skill. Gina is a valuable asset to the A2 community, as a personal instructor she definitely nurtures her clients needs and creates reasonable expectations while pushing your skills. And she’s a wonderful person I’m blessed to call my friend!!”

Her classes are addicting and effective! I came to her with little firearm experience and she built up my confidence and skill level quickly—all while making every lesson a total blast. I now feel competent, safe, and prepared to defend myself should I ever need to do so.”

I met Gina through the Not Me OC program over a year ago and started training with her immediately. She is AMAZING! Gina has taught me how to properly handle my firearms...everything from form to accuracy to speed. Gina has guided me through the process of purchasing a firearm and obtaining my CCW license. Her expertise and patience on the range has made me a confident and better shooter. Plus, we have a whole lot of fun!!!”

Gina is extremely knowledgeable. When you train with her she is highly focused on you. She makes sure all the technical points of shooting are where they need to be. To give you the best results. Her training style makes you feel at ease making it a stress free environment.”

I had only shot my gun a couple times before I had my first lesson and was not very confident handling my gun. After just one lesson with her I felt so much more comfortable as she shared a lot of gun safety etiquette and spent time correcting my form; I’m also very thankful to have had the opportunity to work privately with her so she could meet me at my knowledge point and move forward.”

I met Gina just over 20 years ago when she hired me as her personal trainer. Fast forward to today, I was encouraged by a very close friend to think about getting a gun. Gina and I had seen each other a few times over the past 20 years but I knew she was a firearm instructor through social media. One of the primary reasons I chose to go ahead and buy a gun was because I knew I could hire Gina to teach me how to use it. She has always been such a beautiful woman inside and out. I hired her as my instructor just over 2 years ago. I continue to see her regularly. She is an amazing teacher, always knowing the right thing to say to encourage and guide her clients. I can’t say enough great things about her. It has been a real blessing to have her in my life as a friend and mentor.”

I first started my lessons with Gina because I have never shot a gun before and was interested in getting one for self defense. At first I was very nervous holding a loaded gun but Gina put me at ease and made me feel very comfortable and SAFE from the get go. With Gina you are not just learning how to stand still and shoot at a target, she has you train for real life situations so if/when the time comes you will be prepared. She truly is a master at her craft.”

I have been shooting pistols most of my life and I started training with GINA about two years ago. She has taken me to a new level of my skill sets. She did show me you can still teach old dogs new tricks!”
