At its core, Able Shepherd® is an elite-level self-defense program utilizing armed and unarmed tactics, emergency medical training and reality-based training scenarios. Our goal is to make you, and those around you, safer. We accomplish this by holding our students to the highest of moral, ethical, and tactical standards.
