Appendix Inside the Waistband AIWB

A Sanami Defense Academy Signature Course – Mastering the Most Efficient Draw

Appendix carry isn’t just about comfort or convenience—it’s about speed, access, and survival.
At Sanami Defense Academy, our AIWB course is designed to transform how you think, move, and fight from concealment.

Over the course of 8 hours of live range training, you’ll develop the physical, mechanical, and cognitive skills necessary to draw faster, present cleaner, and shoot more efficiently under real-world conditions.

This is not a beginner’s course. It’s a performance course.
Dryfire meets live fire. Mechanics meet pressure. Mind meets movement.
