A Beginners Mind

Zen arts turn a seemingly mundane task into a spiritual practice. They help the practitioner develop the ability to see “what is” happening in their lives, instead of focusing of “what could, should, feels like, will or was happening”.

Target shooting with pistols can be practiced as a Zen art and can bring more than a lot of fun to your life.

"If you do what you have to do, you can hit any target in life. People who don't either are not clear on what to do, or not doing it... probably doing something else. The bullet hole on the paper doesn't lie. Your life doesn't either... and that realization is the possibility for a Zen moment." -Donato Helbling

Learn the techniques to not just shoot pistol at a target, but have the mental focus, breath & connection the will affect all other aspects of your life.
Hopefully never need to use what you learn in the course for self defense against others but YOU WILL use these skills to train your mind and defend it against your own limiting beliefs, negative patterns and toxic thoughts.

This course is great for:
1) People who have never shot before, even if they are scared of guns, and want to overcome this fear. 2) Beginner/Intermediate shooters who want to hone in their fundamentals and become accurate faster.
3) Seasoned shooters and even instructors looking to find new ways to connect with their practice and techniques to share with others. Know that you will be covering a lot of basics you already know, so bring your beginner's mind.

What's Included
Range entry, eye and ear protection, pistol rental and ammo included. If you wish to practice with your own pistol, please contact Donato to make special arrangements.
