Recommended Attire

We recommend that you wear comfortable, athletic clothing. When training with tourniquets in courses including bleeding control training (i.e. First Aid, Stop Life Threatening Bleeding, Wilderness First Aid, AVERT), be aware that the velcro on tourniquets can ruin fabric that it touches. (See Recommended Gear)

 

No Weapons Policy 

Due to the scenario training in this course, there is absolutely zero tolerance for any weapons in the classroom, especially firearms (even if you have a CCW permit). This also includes pocket knives, pepper spray, multi-tools or objects that may be used as improvised weapons such as plastic or metal water bottles and canes.
