This was a very funny, fun, but most importantly, INFORMATIVE class. The atmosphere was great, the instructors were great, the doughnuts were great... lol. I appreciate the enthusiasm they all had being that it was early morning on a Saturday. My birthday fell on the day I attended this course.. It was definitely worth my money, and made my birthday an even better day than it already was. Thanks to Omi and the gang. I'll definitely be taking your advance courses.
God bless!

My situation was unique in that I had already taken a CWL course with another provider prior to signing up with Omi at CWLMiami.com. (My prior certificate was lost, and the instructor could not be located...ughh) So it was the benefit of having something to compare his program to that made me realize the quality of his course and the level of advanced training that he had to share. My prior experience was mostly anecdotal with a bunch of 'good-ole-boys' sitting around telling stories about their supposed near-death experiences and what they might do differently if they were armed. The worst part was, it was full of misinformation...the kind that could land you in jail for a LONG time.
I found Omi's website on Google, and while his course was a no-frills operation, the price of the course fairly reflected that...and turned out to be a true bargain when considering the amount of information, oversight and instruction that was provided in a clear, concise manner, all the while citing state statutes and case law to back up the material. Another glaring omission from my prior course was the actual hands-on training in the safe operation of a real handgun. Much to his credit, Omi's position was clear in that no student would pass his course without successfully demonstrating the proper handling and use of a real pistol. He even provided an impressive selection of loaner handguns for our use and benefit. As someone that currently doesn't own a handgun, it sure was nice to spend actual range-time with a few of the better handguns out there to get an idea what I'd like to carry (special thanks to Ian for the S&W loaner!).
Another thing I noticed was the variety of students including men, women, boys and girls of all ages and sizes. I'm 41 years old and I've been actively shooting long-rifles and shotguns since I was four, so I was no stranger to the range or to guns in general, but there were several students that had never used a gun of any type,

I think the basic pistol course just as good for the beginner as well as for someone that has not fired in a while. Good safety instruction on handling a pistol. I believe this is a good starting point for anyone seeking there CWL.

I recently attended one of Omi's self defense classes and although, it was an abbreviated half day class, I gained a wealth of knowledge and lots of practice; over 200 rounds in 4 hours. Omi and Carlos are excellent instructors! I would recommend his classes to anyone without hesitation.
Thanks Omi and Carlos for offering this half day class! I look forward to hearing about other future classes.

This class was excellent. Learned way more then my first CWL class which consisted of just a video and only shooting a few rounds. This class offered fun, interesting, and most of all sound intruction. I can't wait to take more advanced classes to enhance my skills.
The only negative about the class is the fact that you can't shoot enough! I orignially though that 200-400 rounds of ammo was a lot, but it goes by fast, and all your left with is face that you want to shoot more!

I attended a CWL class taught by Omi and found it very informative. His no BS, common sense approach to self defense made the class enjoyable, but more importantly, despite my military background, I learned things I did not know. If you already know everything, I recommend you teach a class of your own. But if you want to learn, I highly recommend takeing the class with Omi.

Loved the class. A lot of one on one with the instructors, very important when you are first learning how to handle and shoot a weapon. Instructors are very knowledgeable about the gun laws, safety, storage and basic fundamentals.
I would recommend this class to my friends.

I felt the course was very informative and very well put together. Mr. Ramirez took time to make sure everything he explained was understood and when I didnt comprehend some of the laws he took his time to break it down so their wasnt any miscommunication. I feel that anyone taking his class will learn the fundamentals of having a concealed weapon and regulations.

Omi goes beyond any CWL course, taking immense care in not only teaching how to properly use a concealed weapon, but also in preparing you to make safe and educated decisions.

The class was professional, instructive, well prepared, interesting, and entertaining. The time flew by, before we knew it we were going to the range and not once did we look at our watches. Omi Ramirez is knowledgeable, amiable, experienced and did an excellent job, he was a joy to take a class with. This class is highly recommended!

Omi...
I never thought I would see the day that I would attend a CWL class and actually enjoy the course! I'm a former educator and I thought you were an excellent teacher and if you can instruct me to feel confident in this area...YOU have past the test!
My Mother and I were quite the talk at our Mother's Day Lunch given by our family on Sunday!!! YOU can only imagine the comments...
Again, thank-you and I'm sure you will see me and my friends in the future!

I am a new gun owner and I was interested in true training for proper firearms handling, usage and techniques. getting a CWL was not my main desire. I searched specifically for basic firearms training course. most courses i could find were either specifically geared for the advanced shooter, in too inconvinient locations or, were prohibitively expensive. When i spoke with Omi prior to signing up he put my mind at ease and indicated what were all the aspects that would be taught in the course in addition to the specifics relating to attaining a CWL. i signed up for the class and personally i believe that his course, as he states during class, is more of an introductory defensive pistol course than just a simple CWL class. His methods and techniques are very effective and he maintains a safe environment at all times while in the range and in the classroom. He teaches you all the basic tools you will need to properly use and handle a firearm anywhere after his class. This is the best class with a world class trainer. I look forward to signing up for additional classes with him in the future.

This was a great class for many reasons, amongst them, I learned the confidence,
know how, mental preparation and discipline required with maintaining a firearm.
Mr. Ramirez was exceptionally professional.
on a scale from 1-10. I give it a 10. Tops!

Omi was a great instructor. My brother and I learned so much from him and now we both feel comfortable with pistols. I recommend the private course to everyone.

I took the class at CWLMIAMI with Omi Ramirez this was a fantastic experience.
The professionalism and motivation of Omi and his partner are second to none
I plan to take some other courses he may offer in the future.

After checking online for a CW class instructor I finally found Omi's website and I was so happy that I took the class with him. I like that we had hands on with the firearms and the part where we went out to the shooting range NICE!. My questiones were answered just by listening to him talk and especially when he demonstrates and presents his firearms. I have a different view on firearms. I have referred some of my friends to this comprehensive class and they were so happy I told them about Omi. Very experienced instructor and I highly recommend his class to any bigginer or experienced person I will guarantee you will be satifsfied with what you have learned! Thank's Omi. Dalia

This was a very good class which used audio-visual equipment and an interactive minilecture format. The instructor, Mr. Omi Ramirez, was eloquent and made very effective of his personal anecdotes as well as those of his colleagues. Safety was his biggest concern and he repeatedly questioned the membes of the class on the different issues involved in pistol self-defense combat. The theoretical class took the whole morning and it was foillowed by a practical class in a pistol range in the afternoon, where safety was again taught by the pistol range instructors. Mr. Ramirez virtually had one-on-one instruction with each of us and we fired upwards of 75 rounds, punctuated by corrections, instructions and explanations. I observed that our student members had the best groupings from the shooters around us. At the end of the day, I felt very comforatble with my new gun and confident that I can use my pistol effectively for the defense of my family's life and property. I am very pleased with the course and I highly recommend it and Omi Ramirez without reservations.

My name is Douglas I am a new gun owner and when looking for the right CWL class I wanted to make sure I found someone with more than just "Oh here's the stuff you need to know and let's go shoot 5 rounds." Omi Ramirez is the totally different, Omi is a teacher by trade and it shows in he's abilty to keep a classes attention and teach his vast knowlege of safe gun use and the laws associated with owning a gun. When it comes to the hands on approach he requires you fire 100 rounds but was happy to work with me through 200 rounds demonstrating further: proper grip, stance, site, trigger pull and other basic fundamentals of shooting. Omi truly has a sense of safety, responsibility and passion for our second amendment rights and is worth the extra money for a very comprehensive learning experience.
Sincerely,
Douglas J. Kurzejewski Jr.

Omi is possibly the best instructor I have seen. His Lecture portion of the class really gives you a newfound respect for firearms. The range portion of the class is also excellent. Requiring at least 100 rounds to be shot, leaves the student with an exceptional knowledge of how to load and use a firearm for self defense. I would definitely recommend this class and instructor for anyone who wants to acquire a CWL.
