Ignatius Piazza: Changing the World

Wednesday, August 3rd, 2011

Do you own a business? Why did you start your own company? Many people start companies so that they can be free of a designated schedule and have unlimited income potential. Some people go into business for themselves because they feel they do not want to work under a boss’s supervision or micromanaging. Others start up businesses so they can work from the comfort of their own homes, not have to sit in hours of traffic and can have more time with their families.

Dr. Ignatius Piazza started his own company to change the world.

He used to have a very different type of business, which was extremely successful and helped change lives. He is a former chiropractor and he ran a very fruitful chiropractic practice, until one day when he decided that he wanted to change the world and make a difference in a new, exciting and very powerful way.

Ignatius Piazza opened his own gun training school.

This gun training school is called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute and is now located just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada. When it opened, Front Sight was located in California, had just a few students and Ignatius Piazza taught a handgun training course. This was April of 1996.

The gun training course went over well with his students and they told their friends and family members about Ignatius Piazza and Front Sight. Students returned and more students joined the gun training course. Word spread again and Front Sight began to grow. Over the next few years, Front Sight’s attendance skyrocketed. It at least doubled in size each year, and has done the same every single year after. To date, Front Sight’s doors have been opened for fifteen years and has kept the same trend. It is notably the best gun training school in the world, offers a few hundred gun training courses a year and trains thousands of students over the course of a year. In his gun training courses, Ignatius Piazza and his team of highly skilled professional gun training instructors teach everything a student needs to know about safely and effectively using a firearm, focusing on gun safety and learning the balance of speed and accuracy in a situation where self defense is needed.

The self defense gun training courses at Front Sight train students not only how to safely use a gun, but how to avoid having to use it in the first place. The courses also teach students how to remain calm in stressful situations, and everything else they will need to know about using their gun, from the very beginning to the very end. Many gun training schools will teach students how to shoot from beginning (presenting their weapon) to end (getting the gun back in the holster). But Ignatius Piazza seriously starts at the VERY beginning (before the threat even occurs) to the VERY end (the emotional and legal consequences of using a gun).

This has prepared students for the real world in a truly recognizable way. Ignatius Piazza has succeeded in changing lives and changing the world for the better, and constantly aims to continue doing so.

Making Your Gun Training Affordable

Saturday, July 23rd, 2011

If you think you can’t afford the best quality gun training in the world, think again. Front Sight Firearms Training Institute is currently offering some great deals that will make your gun training affordable.

Founder and director, Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, works hard to keep his gun training inexpensive so that everyday, average people can afford it. Too many gun training schools need you to pay so much money to get trained you would think you would need to be rich or famous to attend. But Front Sight is different. Ignatius Piazza does not care how much money you make or how much you have in your savings. He wants as many people to get good gun training as possible, so the world can become a safer place to live. You will be surprised at the crazy discounts he offers to students of Front Sight.

So how do I find out about these so called crazy discounts?

When you go onto Front Sight’s website, just sign up for the Free Front Sight Newsletter. Each day, Ignatius Piazza spends time creating this amazing newsletter so that you can have the newest information about what is going on at this gun training school. Updates and information change daily because there is always something new and exciting going on at Front Sight. You will want to take a look at your personal newsletter every day because Ignatius Piazza often throws in surprises that baffle everyone. I know the Front Sight Newsletter has dropped my jaw on numerous occasions. Let it be known that because I read the Front Sight Newsletter, I was able to secure myself a Front Sight Lifetime Membership at a price of a fraction of a penny on the dollar. It was such a ridiculous deal that I wondered if it was a typo. But no, it was not a typo, and I got three memberships. What I love most about this newsletter is that Dr. Ignatius Piazza actually writes it himself, so I know that I am always getting the best information possible.

What is a Lifetime Membership?

A Front Sight Lifetime Membership is another way to save on your gun training. Ignatius Piazza has put together several different packages that allow you to attend certain Front Sight courses as many times as you would like for the rest of your life. I have an All Inclusive Diamond Membership, meaning that any Front Sight course is free to me for the rest of my life. And remember… I got it on a deal that allowed me to buy three at one time. There are many different Lifetime Memberships that Ignatius Piazza offers, so if you don’t want to get an All Inclusive Membership right now, there are other options for you. Front Sight makes it easy for you to tailor your membership to your specific gun training needs.

Don’t go another day thinking that you can’t afford your self defense gun training. Ignatius Piazza gives you options at Front Sight.

Fitting Gun Training Into Your Life

Friday, July 1st, 2011

How many times have you thought to yourself that you wanted to get gun training, but just did not have the time to fit it into your schedule? It is hard to match up the schedules of a gun training school with your work, family life, church obligations, school courses, or any of the other hundred things you have got going on in your life. With a full time job, a part time job, church involvement, a boyfriend and two nieces under the age of two that I am extremely involved with, I am very familiar with being strapped for time. This is why Dr. Ignatius Piazza, founder and director of the gun training school called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, has made his gun training courses as convenient as possible. At Front Sight, it is actually hard to NOT find a gun training course that can fit your schedule.

Save the months of July and August, Ignatius Piazza offers over forty different gun training courses each month. You can take a look at Front Sight’s website for reference and to see which courses are available to meet your specific calendar needs. This means that throughout the year, not including July or August, Ignatius Piazza is giving you over four hundred opportunities to come visit him and learn how to defend yourself and how to protect your family by learning how to safely use a gun for self defense. Not only do you have over four hundred choices of WHEN to attend Front Sight, Ignatius Piazza also offers courses that are compacted to fit even more smoothly into your schedule. Front Sight’s main gun training courses can be four day, two day or one day courses… so, as I said earlier, it is difficult to not find a Front Sight course that is convenient for you.

Have you taken a look at the schedule and are still lost as to how you are going to fit in your gun training? Or are you possibly having trouble deciding which course is best for you? Go ahead and give Front Sight a call and one of Ignatius Piazza’s trained staff members will help you through the decision making process. And don’t worry; they will not automatically tell you that you need to take the most expensive course available. Like Ignatius Piazza, his staff wants what is best for you, so they will help you make the best decision possible for you.

Self defense gun training is important to get. This is why Ignatius Piazza wants to make the gun training at Front Sight as convenient and as readily available as possible. He has spent extra time, energy and money hiring and strictly training a select team of gun training instructors to make the Front Sight schedule a possibility. He knows your are busy and he knows you’ve got other obligations. Now you can stop stressing over the gun training you wish you could get if you had the time… and just start getting your training, because with Front Sight, you have the time.

Front Sight: Perfect Practice Makes Perfect

Monday, June 13th, 2011

Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, the huge gun training school in Pahrump, Nevada, provides the best quality gun training, knife training and empty hands self defense training that money can buy. Dr. Ignatius Piazza, the man who created it all, is set on giving students more bang for their buck… quite literally.

You have probably heard the phrase, “Practice Makes Perfect.” Well… that is only partly true. If you are not practicing correct techniques during your practice time, then you could be hurting yourself in the long run. The truth is that Perfect Practice Makes Perfect. Ignatius Piazza promises all of his students: perfect practice is just what you will get at Front Sight Firearms Training Institute.

The gun training instructors at Front Sight will tell you, “We are not here to make you good shooters. We are here to make you PERFECT shooters.” So how do they accomplish this? First, they teach perfect technique. They tell you what the techniques are. They show you what the techniques are. Then they help you master those techniques during dry practice. After that, they help you master those techniques during firing drills. They even help you help OTHER STUDENTS perfect THEIR technique. They come at you from every angle with education so you can be sure you are not missing anything. The result is that perfect practice that you need. But there is more to perfecting your shooting than just perfect practice.

When you attend Front Sight for any gun training course, one of the things you will look forward to hearing every day is how much ammunition you will need for the next day’s exercises. Don’t be surprised when you hear, “You will need about one hundred fifty rounds tomorrow… for before lunch.” Ignatius Piazza designed his gun training program at Front Sight to actually teach you how to shoot perfectly. How is this going to happen if you get to shoot fifty to a hundred rounds, like they have you do at other gun training schools? At Front Sight, you will be shooting A LOT because Ignatius Piazza wants you to get in all of the perfect practice that you need in a safe and controlled environment so you will be better prepared if you must use a gun for self defense off the range in real life.

I know I have been using the word “perfect” quite a bit today. It may seem redundant or like I’m trying too hard to make a point. But please, believe me when I say that it is not for emphasis. It is because there are few words that actually equate to the word “perfect.” You can describe something as excellent, really good, amazing, incredible, outstanding, super, or whatever your favorite positively charged adjective is. But really, you get nothing less than perfection at Front Sight. The gun training you will receive from Ignatius Piazza is not just really good. It’s not just excellent. It is perfect. Because only perfect practice makes perfect, and Ignatius Piazza wants to make you a perfect shooter.

Front Sight’s Gun Training: Gun Training For Life

Monday, June 6th, 2011

Right now, I am sitting in a building surrounded by about fifty or sixty other people. I know about three people here and it is dark outside… and I left my glasses in the car. I do not know the area outside very well, as I am pretty far from home. Am I scared to leave and walk through the poorly lit and well hidden parking lot, even though I don’t know these people, I don’t know the area and I can barely see outside? Nah.

Many people in my situation might be a bit apprehensive about where they were. They wouldn’t want to walk to the car by themselves, especially if they were me: a five foot three, quite timid looking female. However, I know that I got self defense gun training from some of the best shooters in the world at the world’s greatest place to receive gun training of any kind: Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. I am confident in the fact that if I (or anyone around me, for that matter) were to be attacked, I would know exactly what to do to handle the situation.

You see, founder and director of Front Sight, Four Weapons Combat Master, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, created his gun training program to really train his students for real life. Many gun training programs will teach you how to shoot a paper target, just as long as that paper target doesn’t happen to move. However, Ignatius Piazza trains his students beyond that. His students learn how to shoot accurately at a stationary paper target, yes, but only to learn perfect shooting technique and begin to learn the exact balance of speed and accuracy. Front Sight students are then challenged by putting time constraints on the situation, because in real life, time is of the essence. If you happen to get attacked, chances are, you don’t have an unlimited amount of time to protect yourself and get away. In reality, you will have less than three seconds to save yourself or your loved one. Ignatius Piazza will train you how to present a weapon from a concealed holster, aim, shoot and hit your target (a moving target) in one point five seconds. Seriously.

Furthermore, the gun training instructors at Front Sight will train you how to handle multiple attackers at once. Yes, that means if four guys come after you with a gun, your chances of escape will actually be pretty high if you have attended one of Ignatius Piazza’s self defense gun training courses. On top of that, you will learn how to handle hostage situations, how to shoot accurately in little to no lighting, how to handle gun malfunctions in the middle of a gun fight and so much more.

So, yeah. I can easily say that I am more that pretty confident that when I walk out of here I will be okay, even if I walk out of here alone. I have got Ignatius Piazza’s self defense gun training in my back pocket.

Front Sight: For You and Your Family

Monday, May 30th, 2011

When your safety and the safety of your loved ones is involved, would you ever want to take any chances? Of course not! So why would you want to take your chances and get your self defense training and gun training anywhere other than the best gun training school in the world? Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, located just outside of Las Vegas, Nevada, is just the place for you to get your gun training, knife training and any other form of self defense training that you would like. Founder and director, Dr. Ignatius Piazza works hard every day of his life to ensure that you get the best training that money can buy.

At Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, students learn from the best of the best of the best. Ignatius Piazza, the second man in the world to achieve his Four Weapons Combat Master Certificate, has designed his gun training program to work with anybody, no matter what his or her learning style may be. Encompassing a wide variety of learning styles is a very important aspect of the gun training and self defense training programs at Front Sight, because, as Ignatius Piazza knows, no two people learn exactly alike. Each person is different, so the handgun training, shotgun training, rifle training, automatic weapons training, knife training and empty hands self defense training courses all cater to individual personalities and learning styles.

Some people learn best by hearing. Front Sight’s highly experienced gun training instructors give some of the most riveting lectures you have ever heard. The information provided is complete and interesting and can keep even the most distracted learners on the edge of their seats. When lectures are involved, my attention span matches that of a kitten in a room of laser pointers. Still, when I sat in the lecture hall at Front Sight, my attention never averted from the instructors at the front of the room. Every lecture was so awesome to listen to that I could hardly contain myself. For all of you audio learners out there, it will likely be even better for you!

Some people learn best by seeing. These visual learners will greatly benefit from Ignatius Piazza’s gun training program because the instructors are constantly giving informative demonstrations. They show everything that they teach. This not only helps you, as a student, understand exactly how to safely handle your gun, it will also ensure you that the gun training instructors at Front Sight actually know what they are doing. Imagine that! Instructors that know their stuff. If you’re a visual learner, you will love the demonstrations at Front Sight.

Some people, like myself, learn by doing. Front Sight Firearms Training Institute is especially wonderful in this area because you get to do everything quite a lot. By the end of your first self defense gun training course at Front Sight, you will have shot hundreds of bullets from your gun. You will have gone through drills, practices and challenges many, many times, so if you ever actually need to use a gun for self defense, you will know exactly what to do because you have already done it.

No matter how you learn best, Front Sight Firearms Training Institute will provide you with the best quality gun training and self defense training. You can rest well knowing that you are giving yourself and your family the best.

Safe Shooting: Front Sight

Monday, May 23rd, 2011

I sat in a room with a few hundred other people. Everyone in the room had a gun on his or her hip. And I have never felt safer.

Think about it. Who, in their right mind, would attack anyone in that room? Now, imagine an entire city like that. Dr. Ignatius Piazza, founder and director of the gun training school, Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, has a dream to one day have an entire town where everyone practices their Second Amendment rights, owns a gun and is highly trained in how to use a gun for self defense. In his eyes, and in the eyes of hundreds of thousands of people all across the nation, this would be the safest town in the world. I am one of those people.

The Second Amendment was created to increase our safety. A gun can be a wonderful tool of self defense and can protect us from home invasions, carjackings, rape, robberies and many other attacks that are not any fun to think about. However, a gun can be dangerous if you do not know how to use it safely. This is why Ignatius Piazza offers the world’s greatest and most thorough gun training that money can buy. His gun training courses at Front Sight can help you learn how to use a gun for self defense, no matter how much or how little gun training you have had in the past.

For those people with little to no gun training, Ignatius Piazza wants to show you the right way to use a gun from the very first time you pick it up. This group of people has a special advantage, because they do not have any bad habits to break and can learn correctly right from the start. Ignatius Piazza and the gun training instructors at Front Sight make learning easy, so you do not get overwhelmed or frustrated. They will help you and be with you every step of the way, so you are comfortable until you are completely confident in your gun training and your shooting skills. This is where I was when I first attended one of Ignatius Piazza’s gun training courses at Front Sight and I left, four days later, feeling like I have been shooting my entire life. I learned quickly, safely and seemingly effortlessly and am now actually a pretty good shot.

If you have years of gun training under your belt, Ignatius Piazza would like to help you hone your shooting skills and perfect your technique. Did you know that there are things that about ninety five to ninety nine percent of the gun owning population do while shooting that can cause their shots to be less accurate? The worst part is, is that most of these people do not even know that some of these habits exist. Ignatius Piazza will help you make sure that you do not fall into this group of people, and that you are in the five to one percent of gun owners that don’t hold these bad habits, making your shooting even more precise than it is now.

Whether you fall into one of these listed categories or somewhere in between, Ignatius Piazza invites you to Front Sight, so you can learn, improve and perfect your safe, self defense shooting skills.

Front Sight: Fifteen Years and Counting!

Friday, April 29th, 2011

For almost fifteen years, Front Sight Firearms Training Institute has been providing the world’s greatest gun training to law abiding citizens from all over the country. Front Sight has been a place where people of all ages and all walks of life can come together for a common bond: to learn self defense and family protection. Founder and director of Front Sight, Dr. Ignatius Piazza, created Front Sight with a goal in mind: to positively change the world. So far, he has been doing just that! Every year, Ignatius Piazza provides thousands upon thousands of students with the world’s best gun training, to make them safer, more confident and more aware of themselves and their surroundings. Each year, Front Sight AT LEAST doubles in size and it is on track to do it again for the fifteenth year in a row. Ignatius Piazza is really on to something!

So how does he do it? Well, first, he had to make sure that he, himself, knew what he was talking about. He studied and trained for years with the best gun training instructors in the world at the time (Ignatius Piazza literally put in THOUSANDS of hours of gun training on the range) and became a Four Weapons Combat Master. Being a Four Weapons Combat Master is something only a few people in the world have been able to accomplish, and Ignatius Piazza was the second man in the world to do it. So yeah, I guess you can say he now knows what he is talking about when he talks about guns!

He then carefully sifted through his gun training experience and separated the good and the not so good and created a gun training program that included only the best of the best information. This is why students only find useful gun training at Front Sight. There is no arbitrary information given by the gun training instructors at this school; it is all vitally important to a student’s gun training and experience.

After creating a gun training program with the best possible information, Ignatius Piazza knew that the best way to get this information to students is through men and women who also really knew what they were talking about when it came to gun training. Therefore, during the Front Sight Gun Training Instructor hiring process, Ignatius Piazza holds candidates to the same standards he holds for himself… meaning he will not hire a sub par gun training instructor. Ever. On your first day at Front Sight, this will become apparent. Each Front Sight Range Master will introduce himself and tell about his training and experience, share his accomplishments and prove to you why he earned his place with Ignatius Piazza. You will be amazed at the experience these instructors have.

It will be easily obvious to you, as a Front Sight student, why Front Sight is ranked the number one gun training school in the world. Come see what it is all about and help Ignatius Piazza celebrate Front Sight’s fifteenth birthday this April! You will learn more than you would ever believe!

I Can’t Stop Talking About Front Sight!

Tuesday, April 5th, 2011

I got my gun training at Dr. Ignatius Piazza’s Front Sight Firearms Training Institute. I am proud to say it, and I say it often. I am especially happy to talk about it when people ask me, “Woah! Where did you learn how to shoot??” Looking at me, most people think that I couldn’t know the first thing about using a gun. Ha.

It’s a well known fact that I talk about the things I love… a lot. I kind of don’t stop talking about my favorite things. So, when I meet a new person, obviously, the subject of Front Sight usually comes up in conversation. They ask me what I like to do and I say one of the things I do is advocate a gun training school called Front Sight Firearms Training Institute in Nevada. Being a somewhat smaller girl, (I’m 5’3 and don’t look extremely strong or powerful), I usually get a questionable look. “Do you know how to shoot a gun?” is a question I am often asked.

I chuckle to myself and tell them about my gun training at Front Sight. I tell them what a great gun training school it is and that Ignatius Piazza is the best. I tell them I learned how to clear gun malfunctions, how to use a gun for self defense, how to get out of using a gun, how to predict a threat before it happens and even how to handle a hostage situation. But what usually gets their thoughts ticking is when I tell them how I was able to improve someone else’s shooting via a text message. He took a picture of his target. Because I had gotten awesome gun training at Front Sight, I was immediately able to see what he was doing incorrectly. I knew exactly how he was pressing the gun’s trigger without even watching him do it. I told him what he was doing, told him why he was doing it and told him how to fix it. All via text message. Guess what? His shooting improved.

I have been shooting with a friend who watched my shooting form. He commented on how perfect it was and how amazed he was at my trigger control. He was nervous to shoot after me because he was afraid my shooting would make him look bad. Ignatius Piazza’s gun training program at Front Sight trained me how to handle a gun perfectly and how to shoot safely and accurately.

My gun training at Front Sight was life changing. It was educational and tons of fun. The friend that I went with to Front Sight watched me go from a total novice to being able to shoot really well in a matter of days. My shooting improved by an insane amount, I gained lots of confidence, I learned way more than just how to shoot a gun and to top it off, I had SO MUCH FUN. It’s no wonder my friends can’t shut me up about Front Sight.

Front Sight: Fit Years of Training Into Four Days

Friday, March 25th, 2011

Have you gotten self defense gun training? What did you learn in your course? Many people that are asked this question usually say something like, “I learned how to shoot.”

Ah. That’s interesting. Did you learn the correct way to press a trigger? “Don’t you just pull it?” No. Did you learn proper shooting stance? “Don’t you just stand how you’re comfortable?” No. Did you learn how to avoid shooting? “What?” Sigh.

These questions seem confusing to the typical shooter. To people trained at regular gun training schools, gun training is just about shooting. To a student of Ignatius Piazza, the answers to these questions are second nature, along with many, many other odds and ends of using a gun for self defense. Ignatius Piazza, founder and director of Front Sight Firearms Training Institute, trains his students to know everything that goes into shooting, not just the actual act of pressing the trigger.

Some of the things you will learn in your self defense gun training courses at Front Sight include proper shooting stance and how to hold your gun safely, what a surprise break is and how it will improve your shooting accuracy, gun safety, shooting speed, how to avoid using a gun in the first place, legal ramifications of using a gun and how to handle them, how to shoot at night or in low to no lighting, how to walk through doors correctly, how to handle hostage situations, how to present your weapon effortlessly, how to shoot exactly on target, how to shoot faster than you would think is possible, how to buy a gun… even how to predict a threatening situation before it arises… and unbelievably, so much more.

The gun training at Front Sight leaves no stone left unturned. By the end of your first self defense gun training course with Ignatius Piazza, you will know everything you need to know about the gun world in order to keep yourself and your loved ones safe from harm. One of the best parts of Front Sight’s gun training is that Ignatius Piazza designed his program to squeeze what would normally take several years to learn into just a few short days of training. I am not joking. Ignatius Piazza has heard time and time again from students, “I have been shooting for X amount of years and I was blown away with what I learned at Front Sight!” He’s even had uniformed men and women tell him that they learned more in four days at Front Sight than they had in over twenty years in the military.

No matter how busy your schedule is, Front Sight can work something out for you. Ignatius Piazza offers short gun training courses so you can learn crucial things like how to offer family protection and practice self defense without getting in the way of your life. You will so much from Front Sight. If you could fit twenty years of gun training into four fast paced days, wouldn’t you want to do it?
