In-home defensive pistol training?

I didn't want to hijack RocTrac's thread, but I'm curious if there are instructors who will come out to one's home and do an analysis and make recommendations (and do some training) for the best defensive posture, specific to your home. e.g., you sleep here, so this point is the best place to take a defensive stance, kids are here - don't shoot in this direction, etc.

Such a thing may not exist, but I figured I would ask!

Thanks!

Think Fatal Funnel,try to find a spot that has all the kiddies and wifey behind you,and the BG's have to come up stairs or down a hallway you can see from behind cover and engage them at that point,trying to clear a house is bad juju too many unknowns,

I do & my son lives in San Antonio.
Look at the house. Find your alamo room. devise a plan that amounts to who does what & from where.
Home owner input is vital & who does what depends on who is willing to do what in a particular household.
ie:Children & age, Wife wont touch a gun or one that is competent shooter, .....

I took defensive pistol training from Mark Conder at the Bullet Hole Range in San Antonio (http://www.bullethole.com" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;). I'm not sure if he comes out to the home but he described in detail how I should prepare a home defense plan. He's an excellent marksman and instructor. You can call the range and ask.

The NRA Personal Defense in the Home class will probably give you the info you need. Our gracious host here gives it periodically.
