"I have a combined 21 years of Military and Law enforcement experience. The Tac 2 course was some of the best training I have ever done and the instructors were fantastic. The course was challenging enough for me and the instruction made it attainable for my 18 year son. We both will be at Tac 3 for sure and look forward to your Tactical rifle courses."
~Anthony Medina

"I've been shooting for more than 15 years now and I regret not doing this training years ago.  For anyone who plans to own a firearm, you need to take this class.  Julio and his staff carry themselves with the utmost professionalism, and their vast knowledge and preparation to deliver the best training experience is noticeable from the moment you arrive at the range.  I plan on taking tactical pistol II and III, and then tactical rifle.  You will enjoy for sure."
~  Sig V. 10-10-11

"I took the Tactical One Course and have to say that it was a great experience.  Julio and his staff are very professional with safety being the first priority and then the dynamics of shooting in real life stressful situations. Going to your typical range to shoot at a target while aiming and standing in one place is one thing. This class teaches you how to react in a real life situations. Teaching you to think and act at the same time to save your life one day. I recommend this class to anyone who buys a weapon for protection. Thank you Julio and Staff! " ~ Ed F.

"Attended 7 Nov 2010 CWP class presented by Julio Cortes. This gentleman is truly passionate about his work, and it showed in what was one of the best classes, subject matter aside, that I have ever taken. Besides his superb firearm and tactical knowledge, I especially appreciated his patient and thorough handling of student questions. With his wit, humor, and inventive use of teaching props, he turned what could have potentially been a dry, ho hum, let's get it over with, classroom scenario into a most enjoyable and informative experience. Thank you, Mr. Cortes--you are a superb teacher and wish there were more like you." ~Richard M.

"Just attended Julio R. Cortes concealed carry class jan 28 2012 and I must say I learned more in 4 to 5 hours with him than I have in 3 years handling guns. The way the man teaches is simply brillant I left the range with tighter shoot groups and with the skills on how to properlly pull the trigger and the trigger reset method works amazing. With out a doubt I plan on continuing with my tactical classes. Hands down this was worth every penny great instructor thanks Julio." ~ Alexander Prieto

"Julio and his instructors are nothing short of outstanding. Extreme competency, safety, and a conveyed genuine passion for tactical shooting excellence are ever present. He showed me how to adapt to drills based on my limitations and this never felt awkward. I can't wait until Pistol Tac 2. "~ Bobby

"I took Pistol Tac 1, 2 and Rifle Tac 1. It has been a very good experience, because I have learned a lot of new drills and tactics, I have improved my speed and precision, and these people are truly safe and professional. Julio is one of the best instructors I have ever met and all the staff are great. You will learn a lot from them and at the end of the day you will be a better shooter. Thanks for the training! Saludos!"
~Javier Arnaiz Larson


"I want to share my experience with Julio and his firm. I signed up for the concealed weapons class. This is something I always wanted to do, but just put it off. While I did handle weapons as a youth growing up in New England, it had been many years. I was a little aprehensive going in. Am I too old, will I remember all the things I was taught etc. Well I was pleasantly surprised. Julio welcomed me personally as he did with every clas member and made us all feel very comfortable.  The class was very informative. It wasn't just a sit and listen and you go home. Julio encouraged interaction with all the students and made the class fun. We each got personal attention on the pistol handling and were trained to consider safety at all times.  After the class we went to the shooting range to exercise our new skills. One at a time Julio guided us on the loading, aiming and firing of our chosen weapons. By the end of the day I felt that I was highly trained and skilled. This would never would  have happened if done on my own. Julio, a big THANK YOU! I will be signing up for the next level of training and can't wait to get back to the range to sharpen my skills!" ~ Rich Rosand

"My wife and I attended the Tactical Pistol 1 Course.  We had attended other courses in other places but felt ackward.  They made us feel stupid.  Mr Cortes was different.  He demonstrated great knowledge and ability.  Yet his way of teaching was humble.  He instructed you in a respectful manner and kept the session exciting.  I greatly appreciate his patience.  For a person that teaches these course repeatedly he has alot of passion which becomes contagious.  My wife and I thankyou very much.  I will be bringing my sons for the course and my wife and i will continue taking tact 2 and 3."
~Luis Torres (Oral Surgeon)

"Just took the Tactical Carbine 1 course, and I am very pleased. I had attended a Magpul Dynamics Carbine class before, and this class compares very favorably. By the end of the day Julio had us shooting on the move, from various positions, and at multiple targets. For a Level 1 one day class this was unusual. I liked the way Julio stressed safety, and even though there were some participants with no prior experience, all went well, thanks to Julio's constant attention. I strongly recommend this class, and I look forward to taking it again, as well as attending the higher level courses."
~Jorge Ravelo

"I can't stop talking about my Tactical Pistol One course!!  The staff is courteous and professional and extremely helpful. Where else can you train with real professionals for real life scenarios? I can't wait for my next course, thank you Julio. " ~Chris C.

 

My participation in the Concealed Weapons Permit class on 8/28/11 was
nothing short of extraord1nary with Julio at the helm. I want to thank
him for a very informative and stimulating class with instructions made
easy to understand and participate in. keep up the good work.
Sidney S

"I took the Tactical One Course and have to say that it was a great experience.  Julio and his staff are very professional with saefty being the first priority and then the dynamics of shooting in real life stressful situations.  This class was like a one day boot camp for learning how to shoot quickly when in need of self defense.  A lot of time was spent on drawing your weapon and facing different scenarios behind cover, reloads, jams, etc.  This class is for people who want to learn more than just shooting from a podium at the range, and it will separate you from those flat foot shooters!  I highly recommend the class!"
~ Richard L.

"I participated to the Tactical I Pistol last week end. The experience was really great. I had a tremendous time and I believe I learned a lot. I was lucky enough to find a group of people that enjoyed the day and a group of instructors that really cared about us (the ‘students’). I would recommend anybody to try the course; the least you could learn is to be confident with a pistol, and maybe even to properly defend yourself in case of an emergency. I’m going to Tactical II Pistol soon. See you there." ~Nicola B.

"Just wanted to express many thanks to Mr. Julio Cortes for giving me the opportunity for taking his CWP class (July 10th). It was a great experience and i can't wait until Aug.21 for the Tactical Pistol 1 Session. I also could not hesitate to become an NRA member! Thanks for the advice Julio! Hope to see you and the family soon..."
~ Luis R. Chavez

"The tactical rifle class was an intense day and I left with a whole new perspective on tactical shooting in general and the carbine in particular. The drills were challenging and revealed areas where I needed additional training and practice. Overall, MFT's classes are one of the best shooter training 'products' available and I'm appreciative of their high quality classes, highly knowledgable staff and fun but challenging courses."
~ Marc C.

  "I just want to say thank you Julio for all the information and great support you gave to people like me, a begining shooter. I'll follow all your recomendations. Thank you."
~ Erwin Meinhardt

"Tactical Pistol 1 -  I had an incredible time. Honestly, one of the best things I ever could have done. I feel so much better about handling my weapons now. I will direct everyone possible to the class with the most glowing of reviews I could give. You guys were all amazing and I thank you."
~Manny Munoz

"Your instruction continues to be TOP notch, your classes are highly motivational and your website keeps getting better all the time. Miami Firearms Training, Don't pack piece without it!"
~Gus

"Julio's Level One Class was excellent.  I thought something was wrong with my gun or the bullets I was buying because my shooting was off.  After receiving some instruction, Julio was able to teach me how to redirect my shots into the center bull's eye.  Now I feel confident as a shooter because I know what to do correctly.  I would recommend this class to anyone who wants to improve their technique.  Don't waste your time on your own and take the class and your improvements will be great!"
~Richard L.

"Never had experience with a firearm knowing the precious value of life as very careful in choosing were to get instruction for my son and I, we took the concealed weapon as a starter came out extremely satisfied with all we learned, to my surprise now even I feel confident handling a handgun. We will definitely move on to the next tactical 1 class, I thank God that led me to Miami Firearms and Julio."
~Lulio Vasquez

"May 15th... Took Tactical pistol one... WOW.. very informative, Julio and his team did an excellent job. The level of training exceeded my expectation. The very next day i was "podium shooting" and notice a complete improvement in my shooting skills. I am more confident around my firearms since taken this course..My Favorite part was using DUMMY ROUNDS... what great malfunction simulation technique....When in doubt "Tap,Rack, and shoot" Look foward to the next class. " 
~Teddy From Aces!!!!!

"WOW WOW WHAT A CLASS. IF YOU ARE LOOKING FOR THE BEST TRAINING WITH THE BEST INSTRUCTORS THIS IS A BIG MUST. IT WAS WHAT I WAS LOOKING FOR I HAD A GREAT TIME. I WILL BE GOING BACK TO TAKE TACTICAL 2&3 AND THE REST OF THE TACTICAL CLASSES THAT THEY HAVE. YOU WILL BE A FOOL NOT TO TAKE THIS CLASS IF YOU ARE CARRYING A GUN. I CAN GO ON & ON JUST TRY ONE CLASS AND YOU WILL SEE THEY ARE THE BEST. I JUST WANT TO THANK YOU FOR THE TRAINING SEE YOU NEXT CLASS. JULIO YOUR THE BEST."
~DAVID LOPEZ.

"There were several newbies in my class, including myself,  who had never fired a weapon before.
Julio was patient and answered all questions--even those that were completely unrelated to the topic under discussion. He gently corrected those who asked about bullets. (You will need to attend the class to understand why he corrected the question!)  Furthermore, when we went to the gun range he (and his lovely wife) showed the same level of patience and I felt comfortable shooting at the end of the range time. I highly recommend the "Combo Class" for new shooters because you will get more range time right up front. I plan to return for the tactical pistol class to learn more about the safe and proper use of my firearm whether it turns out to be a pistol or a revolver--and thanks to Julio, I now know the difference!
Thanks Julio!"
~ Gwendolyn

"Good morning guys, I want to say thank you to MR Julio Cortes for the CWP class and all the new things that I've learned, this gentleman is very professional, with vast experience in Firearms, I recommend this class to everyone and I'm looking forward to take the tactical 1,2,3,. Thank you again to Julio
and see you soon..."

"The Number One name in learning how to handle a weapon the right way, the safe way. Just completed the Tactical Pistol 3 Class and have come away with such a high level of confidence in handling a pistol, that I am inspired to continue seeking out any opportunity to practice and hone my new-found skills. I used to think that I could handle a gun fairly well, Ha! The Instructors at Miami Firearms Training taught me tactics and proper gun handling techniques, I would  have NEVER aquired any place else. I am deeply grateful for the inspiration, experience, and instruction I have received from Miami Firearms Training. I recommend anyone who wants to become proficient with a weapon, to attend any and all of Miami Firearms Training Classes. The instructors are some of the Finest, Knowledgeable, and Courteous Instructors, I have ever had the Honor to learn from. I am already "loading up" and eagerly awaiting my next chance to attend your classes. As always, YOU GUYS ROCK!!!" 
~Gus Tate

"What a great experience!I took the Tactical Pistol 1 class May 15. And I had a great time at the Tactical Pistol 2 class June 19. I think Julio and the Miami Firearms crew have helped me advance my skills. I'm looking forward to Tactical 3. I would recommend Miami Firearms Training to everyone!! THANK YOU"

~Jose Martinez

  "Julio`s class moves along nicely for the experienced shooter and the newbie. His info relating to the miss firing of a pistol is something every shooter should learn. He also takes the time to show every student the basis of a pistol grip and trigger pull. This was paramount for my wife since she won`t listen to me..."
 ~Chris Guarino

"I haven't been responsible for a weapon since 1992, when I was in the Marine's Secuity Force battalion. I just reacently perchased a pistol and decided the best thing I could do is master it again after 14 years.  I attended Mr.Cortez CWC coarse and found him to be a very good instructor, prompting me to countinue onto his Tec.1 Pistol coarse. I was very impressed by the professionalism and safty held at high level by all the instructors. Just owning a gun is not good enough.You need to learn how to dance with it." 
~Angel Gomez
  

"The CWP class was great, I am new to firearms so I learned a great deal. I am hooked and plan to attend more classes. Julio was very detailed and took his time explaining all we needed to know. Thanks again."
~ Luis

"I took the class with my Wife, and Julio knows what he is doing. He also actually teaches you how to handle the weapon. The improvement in my shooting and overal handling was huge. Very good, take all the classes with him!"
~Henry  

"Anyone who owns a firearm should attend this course! (Tactical Pistol 1) I had no previous experience and left this class feeling confident.  The staff is professional and makes you feel at ease."
~Veronica Sprague

”My wife Lucie finally stepped over to the DARK SIDE and took your Tactical Pistol 1 Class in December 2010. To say that she was impressed, is an understatement. She came away with a whole new respect and desire for firearms that is directly attributable to your incredible patience, knowledge and expertise. As has always been my experience with you, you know how to motivate, inspire and instruct your students in the proper methods to be safe, accurate and fast with a weapon. Lucie is looking forward to attending more of your classes, as time allows. She is totally taken in by your professionalism and is anxious to continue learning. As always, you guys ROCK!! Keep up the Great work and God Bless!”

"Julio, I wanted to write you this email to express my sincere thanks after attending today's CWL class. My fiancee, my cousin, and I all thoroughly enjoyed our experience and would wholeheartedly recommend this course to anyone seeking instruction and certification to carry a concealed firearm in the State of Florida. Even though I have had some previous military firearms training, my cousin has had some very limited firearms experience, and my fiancee had shot a pistol exactly one time before today, the course was engaging, informative, and useful for all three of us. Your effective use of props, engaging teaching style, and ideal mixture of wit and the ability to stress the seriousness and value of safety rules and proper firearms handling made what could have otherwise been a relatively boring or monotonous lecture into a vibrant and informative day. 
I appreciate the individual time you took with my fiancee and others who required additional instruction and encouragement and it is a testament to your love for the sport and desire to inspire a sense of civic responsibility to preserve our Second Amendment rights in your students. We look forward to registering for your next available Tactical Pistol I course in April and have plans to progress through your entire Tactical Pistol series of courses (I-III) and eventually progressing to the Tactical Carbine and mixed firearm courses.
See you on the range..."
~Jeffrey Rosales

”Julio:  I wanted to thank you for the great job you and your wife did today.  The course was fantastic and has already propelled me in terms of preparation.  I will do my best to get enrolled for one of your upcoming Pistol 1 courses as well.  You were both very easy going, informative and professional and I appreciate that.  Hopefully we will see each other again soon. Regards,”
~ Paul

"I have been an advid shooters for over 25 years. After attending Tactical Pistol 1 on October 15 2011  I comend Julio and his training staff.  The personal attention they give each student on every drill especially in a class that large is fantastic.  I look forward to tactical Pistol II and III.  Thank You and I will see you in your next classes "
~ Joel Chamizo

"Hello Julio, Thank you for an excellent class today. I had forgotten how much I enjoy target shooting! I found your instruction today to be well-planned and professionally executed. You demonstrated your knowledge and enthusiasm for the subject matter, and the time seemed to fly by. Congratulations on a job well done, which I'm sure is the norm for you. My husband sends his thanks once again for allowing him to observe. You can be sure that we will recommend you and your company to any of our friends (not the liberals!) who may be interested in any of your courses. Regards,"
~ Susie Blank

 

"I would like to take a moment to say thank you to Julio Cortez & the excellent staff at Miami Firearms Training. I had the privilege to take part in the tactical pistol 1 course on March 19 2011.  I have to say without a doubt this was an exceptional learning experience, it was safe, fun and challenging for me. I came out with a much better understanding and confident level for using my weapon. I believe is our responsibility, each and every one of us that has a CWL to get as much professional and knowledgeable training as possible. This is where Julio and every one at Miami Firearms Training come into play. These classes are in no why podium shooting classes as a lot of us learn firsthand. It’s in no way easy to tap rack and shoot or do reload-with-retention while on the move plus add some pressure to the mixes. This is as close as you can get to real life situations. I hope none of us ever have to draw our weapon, to protect ourselves, or our loved ones. But at least you should have peace of mind, that if you ever have too you’ve had the proper training and knowledge to do so safely and effectively.  It might just be the difference between you and the bad guy!  I look forward to continuing to learn and improving my skill level with your other courses, once again thank you for all your help."
Sincerely,
~Candelario E

"I just took Tactical Pistol I for the second time.  I was surprised at how different the two classes were.  I'm very glad to see you mix things up to keep us on our toes.  The attention you give to each student is much to be admired.  Anyone with a firearm should take this class.  The information and techniques you teach could literally save your life one day.  I have recommended your class to numerous people and I will continue to take more classes myself.  Keep up the great job.  You have a fan for life here." ~Armando

"I took the Tactical 1 Course for fun. And it was!! The instructors are very professional and nice to train with. As a civilian it was one of those rare opportunities to use my gun in a tactical fashion. It was loads of fun and very informative! I am very satisfied with the experience and definitely plan to attend Tactical 2. Thank you Miami Firearms Training!!"
~Al Botbol   

"Prior to the Tactical 1 class, I had only handled a pistol once before. At first, I was nervous handling a gun and was unsure of how to reload the weapon. By the end of the day, I felt comfortable handling a gun quickly and, more importantly, safely. The instructors were very insightful and the class itself was really fun. If you want to learn how to shoot, and shoot well, then you have to sign up for the Tactical 1 Pistol Class."
~Roger T.

"Hi Julio, I just wanted to thank you again for the very instructive class. I was extremely impressed by the level of professionalism shown by your team and you. It was my first class with Miami Firearms, and  I felt safe at all times while learning a tremendous amount of basic and advanced pistol handling. On top of that I had a great time! I can't wait to get back to another class. Merry Christmas, "
~Luis Martinez.

"DEAR MR. JULIO CORTES, I TOOK YOUR CLASS ON 1/23/11, YOU ARE VERY PROFESSIONAL, AND SAFETY IS OF YOUR UTMOST OF IMPORTANCE, AS IS MINE. I HAVE BEEN AN INSTRUCTOR FOR 23 YEARS, AND YOUR ORGANIZATION SHOWS THAT! KEEP UP THE EXCELLENT WORK! YOU ARE AN ASSET TO THE FUTURE OF WEAPON SAFETY! SINCERELY,"

"I was in Julio's class of CWL , and I got  the licence in my pocket only in  two weeks, thanks to the instructor's teaching and his guidance, also the class was very informative and enjoyable. I recommend anyone who wants to have his license soon."
~Raul

"I have now taken all three Tactical Pistol courses as well as the Tactical Rifle 1 course. Instruction is top notch. My skills and comfort level have increased significantly. The experience is impossible to reproduce in a standard gun range. Julio and staff make sure everyone improves regardless of your level going into the course." ~Henry G.

 

"Hi Julio. As predicted my shoulders are still a little sore and haven't fully recovered the sensitivity of my middle finger (where it touches the triger guard) lol
But I really had a good time during our class... I can honestly say it was the highlight of this trip to miami.
Please keep me posted on the upcoming classes, who knows maybe I can escape to miami and attend a class without missing a lot of work.
I'll try to get as much practice as I can...

Once again, muchas gracias por todo. Saludos."
~ Raul Roa

"Wow! What can I say. Attended the November Tactical 1 and what a great day it was. Julio & Co. provided a very high level of professionalism and safety. So much better than shooting at an indoor range. Can't wait to take Tactical 2!"
~S.D.

"I took the Tactical Rifle 1 class Sept. 18, 2010. It's the third class I take with Julio, and I can't wait for the next one. I had a lot of fun and learned some new things. THANK YOU!"
~Ralph D.

"Just wanted to take some time and thank Mr. Julio Cortes for a very informative CWP course on Aug 31. I looked around and researched all the other
CWP class in town, before I went to your class. I can say your class is the best by far!  I'm looking foward to continue learning in Tactical 1 pistol course on Oct 16."
~Ken Exposito

"Tactical 1 is utterly amazing.  Not only did I feel more comfortable with my sidearm then ever before but my wife became comfortable with a firearm for the first time ever.  We both had an amazing time and learned not only what we're good at but what we need to improve. I would highly recommend this class to anyone interested in taking any type of handgun course. Thanks for the amazing training."
~Roger & Yoly

Good morning Julio,  

Thank you for the course, I really enjoyed it and learned a lot. I actually went on Tuesday to downtown & submitted my application & fingerprints. It took me all about 15 minutes, very efficient. Thanks again for your time and expertise at the course and at the shooting range. I will definitely be signing up for Tactical Pistol & Rifle classes. Hope all is well, be safe. Regards,”  

~ Garbriel

"Had a great time at the Tactical 1 class on Saturday, I learned a great deal. Already signed up for Tactical 2!"

~Javier Hernandez

"I have been fortunate enough to attend not only the CWP class, but the tactical one pistol class as well. For someone like myself, a person who didn't grow up near guns or hunting, learning to use a gun was a scary experience. I have a healthy fear of injuring myself or others by accident. However, I am single and travel to not so safe areas on a regular basis. Therefore, I decided it would be in my best interested to become a gun owner. With the responsibility of ownership comes also the responsibility of learning to handle a gun safely. I found Miami Fire Arms Training on the internet. I couldn't have been more pleased. I started my training very nervous to hold a loaded gun near other people. By the end of the day I had relaxed and was able to safely and effectively handle my firearm. Being that I have so little experience with firearms, while I did earn my certificate the first time, I have opted to take Tactical Pistol 1 again before moving on to the second, more advanced class. All of the instructors have been very supportive and encourage you to progress, but only at your own pace. I have recommended this class to my friends and will continue to do so. I even brought some to the class with me. I look forweard to continuing my education in both self defense and marksmanship with Miami Firearms Training."
~HEATHER STONE

"I recently attended the Tactical Pistol Training I. I really enjoyed the class and appreciated the excellent hands-on training/professionalism. I highly recommend this class for the novice and experienced shooter. Looking forward to taking the additional classes." Thanks,
~Ed Groblewski

"My bestfriend Jeanette and I thank you very much for your wisdom on defensive actions to take and of control over ourselves. We will love to continue more training with you as soon as possible. Again we thank you."
~Jessie

"I took the Tactical One Course and have to say that it was a great experience.  Julio and his staff are very professional with safety being the first priority and then the dynamics of shooting in real life stressful situations. Going to your typical range to shoot at a target while aiming and standing in one place is one thing. This class teaches you how to react in a real life situations. Teaching you to think and act at the same time to save your life one day. I recommend this class to anyone who buys a weapon for protection. Thank you Julio and Staff!"

"Dear Julio,
I am not sure if you remember me but i was in your class yesterday CWP.  I have to tell you what a professional job you did on the class.  I really learned alot, your patience and knowledge base was unbelievable.  I am hoping to continue to pacatice my shooting and sign up for Tactical #1 class, maybe this month. Again, Thank you for a great experience and I hope to see you soon on my training."  
~ Roland M.

"Julio and staff; Cristian and I had a great time, besides knowledge, practice and confidence with a firearm we came out with a father-son bonding memory that will last us a lifetime. Thank you!"
~Lulio

"The class was great, the knowledge of "Fundamentals" is the basis for a good shooting. I shoot previously and have no idea of simple techniques that could improve tremendously my shooting abilities. I highly recommend this class to all shooters. See you in Tactical Pistol 2. Regards,"
~Armando Varona  

"Thank You for Your Excellent CWP Training class of Today.

You give an excellent training class for the CWP and covered the area in depth. I taught technical subjects while in the Air Force for five years so I recognize an excellent instructor when I see one. Thank you from me and my family." ~ Bill Dingley

"I'm very happy with the class it was interesting and I learn a lot.  Thank you very much and hopefully I can enjoy your other programs."
~Flo

"Just wanted to say, that even though it is hotter than a habanero pepper on a blowtorch, I enjoy every minute I get to spend out at the range helping you guys out. I thank you for the Honor and the Privilege to let me be a part of it. It is one of the greatest pleasures in my life to see how you take folks from knowing what a gun is, to actually being able to hit the target with regularity. Better than peanut butter and jelly together. Other than joining some super secret, super elite tactical assault squad some where in some mysterious place, YOU cannot get any finer, safer, more professionally instructed firearms training, than with Miami Firearms Training. Keep up the great work!"
~G.T.

"Attended the Nov. 28th CWP Class by Julio Cortes and I really enjoyed the class. It was very informative..Alot of questions and concerns I had were answered and I left the class with a better understanding of carrying a concealed weapon. Julio was fantastic and very patient with his students. I would definitely recommend miami firearms to my friends and family. I look forward to taking the Pistol Tac. 1 training in the near future."

"Hello, took the concealed carry class and I can't stop telling my friends about it. It’s awesome, I sat in the 1st row and just asked away and Julio answered away back; jajaja! I only have really good things to say. Last time a fired a pistol was when i was 12 and at the range with Julio that same day i did really good. I will see you guys back for level 1 firearms and whatever you guys come out with, I'm there. Thanks a lot; take care everyone." 

"I took the concealed weapon class. Julio was great! My friends and I are getting ready to take the Tactical Pistol 1 course. Can't wait!"
