Aaron Pelouze enjoys many outdoor actives. Hiking, skiing, competitive shooting, small game hunting, but teaching is his passion. As an entrepreneur, he is more often than not out meeting people. Being out in public personal safety is a top priority.

Having limited knowledge of firearms, he realized the need for quality training. The seed was planted after attending Gunsite 250 basic pistol class in 2006. Looking for local training opportunities, he found less than stellar classes. Many did not teach the skills needed to avoid or even defend against a violent attack. Combine this with his passion for teaching Vista Defense Training was born.
