Event Description:
If you’re looking for a class that will feel like private coaching in a low head count environment with two highly developed diagnosticians, this class is for you. Low time investment, high personal attention, high yield. This is what Chris and Neil strive to provide.
Due to being at the same venue teaching their own specifics classes at the same time, Chris and Neil seized the opportunity to create this phenomenal one-day, co-branded direct diagnostic class. They felt it would just be silly not to take advantage of that situation.
It’s no secret Chris and Neil teach together often. What many may not know is the differing curriculums and approaches they employ and adhere to over the course of a training year. This year (2025) has been laser focused on how the client reacts in a given situation and dissecting that to improve the likelihood of positive outcomes in force related encounters.
This has left them with a hole as it relates to directly coaching for either confidence or achievement by using diagnostic intervention and strict data evaluation to razor sharpen technique. Mechanical diagnostics is what got them to the position to work on deeper concepts and broad applications, but diagnostic coaching is still something they wholeheartedly love and excel at. Attacking and remedying specific shooter issues to squeeze the most performance out of a person is indeed a passion project.
This will be the only time this duo will work together this year with a strict focus on direct coaching. It’s a great opportunity to see the Tactical Advantage way of collecting and leveraging data coupled with the utmost care that ASP culture creates.
