Excellent! The staff makes you feel like family right away. No ego’s or talking down to newbies. If you wanna learn? This is the place. I left after a weekend course with more knowledge then I could have imagined. I improved my technique 100%. The staff and instructors are active and retired military and police, it doesn’t get better then that. I can’t say enough positive things about ADI. I feel lucky to have this outstanding resource so close to my hometown.

ADI is an excellent training facility. State of the art simulators provide a realistic experience with firearms and self defense scenarios in a safe environment. An excellent way to introduce new or inexperienced shooters to guns without the risks associated with live ammunition.

Experienced shooters benefit greatly from the simulators as they introduce you to a number of realistic scenarios designed to test not only your reflexes, but more importantly your powers of observation and judgement.

They have a number of courses designed to train gun owners in the proper mindset and skills for self defense situations that involve the use of their firearm, as well as basic gun safety and marksmanship. All of the courses that I have taken have included valuable information regarding the legal, mental, and physical aspects of self defense. Leave your ego at home, disregard what you think you know, pretend to be a sponge, and you will learn a lot.

For those of you on a budget, fair warning, these experiences are not cheap. I (and most of the students here) feel the prices are good for the knowledge, skills, and instruction that is offered. I'm willing to pay more for quality. The skills you learn could save your life someday. Skimping doesn't make sense. Figure out what you can afford and work with that. Occasional training is a lot better than no training and I would propose that the cost of training should be factored in as part of the responsibility of owning a firearm.

The staff at Artemis are top notch. Most of their instructors have military and/or law enforcement backgrounds. You won't be learning from hobbyists. You'll be learning from experienced professionals. They are friendly and down to earth. Knowledgeable. Passionate about self defense and your right to self defense. In training scenarios they pay attention to detail. They are patient, but won't put up with any BS. They will push you to excel. It won't be easy, but if you're smart you'll see the value in challenging yourself. Again, leave your ego at home, open your mind to learning, and you will get a lot out of your experiences here.

It’s true, they’re great!

I have trained in both their simulators as well as live shooting during my CCW class and they continue to go above and beyond in every aspect of their training. Whether you're completely new to firearms or an avid gun enthusiast there is no equal.

Great faculty. Great instructors. Super friendly staff. The facilities training capabilities really puts it in perspective! 
There's two main scenario rooms/lobby's the '180' & '360' digital back drops. There isn't a live firing range here but still fun n thrilling!! Gets ur adrenaline pumping!! 
I'll be returning to improve my firearms training!! Thanks Kyle & John for your patience & sharing ur knowledge with us!! Cheers & happy hunting!!
