We have all felt it. It makes our heart race, our forehead sweat, our breath quicken and our stomach churn. We experience it every year on Halloween - for the "fun" of it. Unfortunately, the sensation of fear happens more than just on Halloween, and many times, it is not for the pleasure of an adrenaline rush. Maybe it happens when an armed masked man walks into the bank as we stand in line. Maybe it happens when an intoxicated person pulls a knife out at a bar. Maybe it happens while we are just walking down the street with our families. No matter what the cause, scientists say that fear is the most powerful emotion that we can feel. It is something that can overtake our entire body - making normal reactions seem difficult or impossible. What happens in the brain when something scary happens? The amygdala in our brain triggers these responses - chemical reactions that are hard to overcome. These amygdalae shoot off neurotransmitters into the synapses between them, causing a chain reaction of impulses that are involved in 'fear responses' like immobility, tachycardia and stress hormone release. What can we do to offset these responses? We can be prepared. If we are prepared, our bodies will more easily be able to respond to the chemical impulses, and when fear arises, we will be more likely to adequately handle the situation, rather than being literally frozen with fear.
Front Sight Firearms Training Institute near Las Vegas, Nevada offers this preparation. Through self defense training courses such as self defense firearms training, edged weapons training and martial arts training, students learn everything they need to know about being prepared for any life threatening situation. Dr. Ignatius Piazza, founder and director of Front Sight, takes special care of his students, offering the best possible training they can receive. He does this by employing only top quality, extremely well trained gun training instructors; teaching students through informative and educational but captivating lectures; providing detailed firearms demonstrations; and allowing plenty of time for students to experience FUN, hands on tactical firearms training. So many times I sit in a classroom, wondering how my professor got hired. The level of training that Front Sight Instructors must endure before being officially employed ensures students that their teachers are not like the teachers you had in high school, just talking out of their rears. They really KNOW what they are talking about. They CARE about their students and LOVE their jobs and it shows. When I hear the word "lecture" it is usually combined in a sentence with the word "boring"... without the word "not" between the two. However, the weapons training lectures at Front Sight are anything but boring! And they include EVERYTHING you need to know about guns. If you want to know how to pick a gun, it's there. If you want to learn when to use a gun and when not to use a gun, you will. If you want to learn the legal aspects of using a gun, that's in there, too! I'm telling you. EVERYTHING. The demonstrations and hands on shooting practice show give you invaluable experience. Real life scenarios are used, so if you actually must go through a life threatening situation in your own life, you aren't thinking, "Gee... we learned about this in lecture... WHAT did the professor say again?" You are more likely to know what to do, because you HAVE DONE IT BEFORE!
After your first course at Front Sight, you will no longer have to worry about what to do if fear controls you. You will know how to conquer your fear.
