Meet Your Instructor
MY NAME IS MARCHELLE (PRONOUNCED MAR-SHELL) DAVIS, AND I AM THE PROUD OWNER OF MY SISTER’S KEEPER DEFENSE. ORIGINALLY FROM FLORIDA AND NOW A RESIDENT OF VIRGINIA, I AM PASSIONATE ABOUT EMPOWERING WOMEN THROUGH FIREARM EDUCATION. I LAUNCHED MY SISTER’S KEEPER DEFENSE IN 2016 AFTER RECOGNIZING A SIGNIFICANT GAP IN REPRESENTATION WITHIN THE GUN COMMUNITY.
MY FIREARMS JOURNEY BEGAN IN THE MILITARY. I SERVED SEVEN YEARS IN THE GEORGIA ARMY NATIONAL GUARD AND BECAME A CERTIFIED FIREARMS INSTRUCTOR AFTER LEAVING THE MILITARY. I DREAM OF OPENING MY NONPROFIT ORGANIZATION AIMED AT CREATING A SAFE, WELCOMING SPACE FOR WOMEN TO LEARN AND GROW. AS A SURVIVOR OF DOMESTIC ABUSE AND SEXUAL ASSAULT, I BELIEVE IT’S CRUCIAL THAT WOMEN FEEL IN CONTROL OF THEIR SAFETY. MY SISTER’S KEEPER DEFENSE IS DEDICATED TO ELEVATING WOMEN, BUILDING CONFIDENCE, AND ENSURING THAT NO ONE ELSE BECOMES A VICTIM.
CERTIFICATIONS: USCCA CONCEALED CARRY HOME DEFENSE FUNDAMENTALS CERTIFIED INSTRUCTOR, USCCA DEFENSIVE SHOOTING FUNDAMENTALS CERTIFIED INSTRUCTOR, GLOCK OPERATOR LEVEL II, GLOCK ARMORER.

Follow your GPS to the range address above. Plan to arrive at the range at least 10 minutes prior to your class start time. Upon arrival, enter GA Firing Line and head to the range check in desk to complete their range waiver. This is a separate document from the MSKD waiver you’ve already completed. I will meet you at the check-in desk at your appointment time.

This waiver is different from the range waiver that you’ll complete once you arrive at the range. All participants (including parents of participating minors) must complete this waiver prior to attending your scheduled lesson.
Also, see our current Frequently Asked Questions page. All reschedule, refund and class related questions are answered on the FAQ page. Felons or those who can not legally purchase a firearm are not permitted to register for any MSKD classes or events.

Dress Code
Avoid wearing low cut shirts or open toed shoes. You're trying to protect your skin from the hot brass that's ejected from the firearm while shooting.
You also may consider wearing a hat to help protect your face. Your hair must be worn down or low to help get the proper placement for your hearing protection. Also no earrings.
Lastly, wear clothing you don't mind getting dirty. Eventually you will practice shooting while wearing everyday clothing but only after you master the fundamentals.
