Eilon Even-Esh is an IDF combat vet and prior service US Marine Corps officer. He is a Columbia University graduate and a former RIETS student at YU. He is a lifetime martial artist and actively works in executive protection and security consultation. He draws on all of his experience as he teaches firearms, unarmed self defense (Krav Maga, BJJ, Muay Thai) and Active Shooter Response. Captain Even-Esh, as he is called by his students, specializes in teaching the Frum community but is available to all people. He travels and teaches across the United States.
Shomer360 Firearms Training Academy and Concealed Carry Training - It's not often that you will find an instructor with a background in two world class militaries, extensive civilian training as well as bodyguard experience. Our linear and interconnected training will take your ability to a professional level. The current offerings are below with more courses on the way. See the "Upcoming Courses" page to schedule your next outdoor range or contact us to schedule a private class.
- Foundations of Firearm Safety and Technique Introductory course necessary for the FL CWFL and to set the foundation for the rest of the training curriculum. For those that trained with me before, you already know that I teach differently. This course is a necessity.
- AR-15 Zeroing and Marksmanship Foundation training necessary for AR-15 competence. You must zero your rifle for it to shoot accurately. Additionally, the skills necessary to zero your rifle establishes the foundation for expert level rifle marksmanship.
- Marksmanship Refinement (Pistol and AR-15 Track) - to analyze, refine and recommend follow-on dry fire and range training plan to improve one's marksmanship.
- Savage Mastery of the Fundamentals (Pistol and AR-15 Track) - our flagship outdoor range course that applies the Foundations of Firearm Safety and Technique to a shooting, moving and EDC pressure test.
- Family Protector Course - (Pistol and AR-15 Track) Refining the skills learned in the Savage Mastery of the Fundamentals course and adding bodyguard drills to simulate protecting your family as you shoot, move and communicate.
- Force on Force AirSoft CQB - This can be a standalone course but it has much greater relevance after the student participates in the previous courses. This course can be a fun event during Chol HaMoed or a very eye opening experience for security teams (both voluntary and professional).
- Mace Non-Lethal Protection Course - Firearms aren't always legal or appropriate. Learn how to practice with, conceal and use pepper spray to defend yourself.
Self Defense and Unarmed Response to Active Shooter Seminars - Very relevant for these turbulent times. Captain Even-Esh will travel to your shul or location and conduct a seminar or series of seminars of your choosing. Our most popular series revolves around what to do in the event of an active shooter or active stabber entering your house of worship. Seminars are often used as fundraiser events, corporate team building or community programing. Captain Even-Esh can travel anywhere in the US or abroad. Please contact us for more details.
Security Team Training
Captain Even-Esh will provide onsite training to your shul security team. Training will involve a fundamental Krav Maga program in addition to active shooter and active knife wielder scenarios. For those states that allow concealed carry, we will make sure the team is coordinated and trained to avoid friendly fire. There will be onsite war gaming and brainstorming sessions to determine the best security solutions to fit your house of worship's unique configuration.

There are well respected Rabbeim who are against teaching martial arts of any kind or in any way. We respect and understand that. For that reason we offer our military-style obstacle course option that focuses on team building, exercise and mental toughness. Delivered with the same Derech Eretz as our other programs but contains no martial arts techniques.
