For some time now we’ve taught private CPL classes but today, we held the first actual public CPL class at our new location. We are so grateful to those who took this class. We had such a great time. Also, we had familiar faces that took other classes with us that participated in this class. We greatly appreciate and thank all of these awesome students for their support and participation. Thank You!
Cutting it Close! First Class At The New Brick Street Safety Academy.
We held our first class at BSSA. This class was the Red Zone Firearms Safety Class. The new space was not ready. We were still moving boxes into the new location the week of the class. If you’ve ever been to our old location, you’ve most definitely seen the jumbo banners that were placed on our walls. We quickly hung those banners up in the new space and then set the tables and chairs in place . All of this happened the night before class. Whew! We were cutting it close. We had a great time with the students that we’ve met. Although the space felt different, the same experience that we’ve always brought to each class had not changed.
When we’d moved to the new location two of the walls were already painted orange. We took this as a sign that perhaps we were meant to be in this place. Orange is definitely one of our major theme colors. So, we’ll let the color orange guide us in decorating and setting up the new space. We plan to use most of the items and furnishings that we have. So stay tuned.
Thank You for stopping by! This website is still under construction. After having our website for many years, it was time to redevelop it. We hope you like what you see so far. So, we ask that you pardon any broken links and/or any changes that will take place while you are visiting this site.
We greatly appreciate your support as well as your participation at our site.
We are now located at: 2503 S. Linden Rd. Suite #175. Flint, MI. 48532.
We are in the process of cleaning and preparing our new space to feel as inviting as the old place. check back for updates. However, in the meantime, take a moment to read about our journey to move and look back at the eleven-years that we spent at our old location. Click here.
Receiving the keys was such a bittersweet experience. It is difficult to say goodbye to eleven-years on Court Street. We’ve met some really good people at that location. However, it is exciting to make a change. We are looking forward to seeing what God has in store for us here at the new location.
We like to thank Jake, Ed and Jennifer for their guidance and support as we transition from the old location to the new location. We greatly appreciate it.
2025 was a very challenging year! Our family was busy fighting cancer. Instructor Jeff went through eight-weeks of daily treatments last January for prostate cancer. We took time for him to regain his strength. We didn’t plan too many classes or we’d spaced the classes out. But, he is doing fine. We’ll keep you all posted on his progress.
Also, in the month of May, we’d almost lost our daughter to a very serious anaphylactic shock. This was probably one of the scariest moments that we as parents went through. Our son had a health scare too. He’s doing good now.
In November, before Thanksgiving, our website severely crashed not once, but twice when being updated. We had to start all over from scratch to rebuild it. There have been some very long days and nights to get us back online.
Finally, in December, we’ve received some devastating information that could change the trajectory of BSSA.
So, 2025 had us on our toes and at times left us feeling speechless. We were reminded that life is short, VERY SHORT and to never take things for granted because things do change when you least expect it to change. Despite it all, God is still an AWESOME God!
We cannot wait for 2026 to get here! We are ready for a New Year!!
