Default Recommendation for Advance Handgun Training

I didn't see another place in this Forum to ask this question. But if I missed it, I hope the Moderators can move this topic to the correct place.

We're looking for recommendations for advanced handgun training in the Dallas - Fort Worth area. And if anyone has some guidance, we'd be mighty grateful. Thanks in advance.

Are you looking for a specific discipline or area? For instance, a competitive format, or self-defense training?

Or are you looking to move beyond the realm of NRA Basic Pistol, and into some more advanced concepts like shooting under time constraints, learning to shoot at longer ranges, reloading with proficiency, and shooting from a holster?

We've had basic training courses and would like more advanced training much like suggested in the above quote. Thank you for your assistance & reply.

Sounds like NRA Personal Protection In the Home and then NRA Personal Protection Outside the Home are suitable for you.
Bill Russell of Shootsafe Academy teaches NRA Courses at all levels, and I recommend him based on personal experience.
