CPR Classes
We honor Chrissy Galassi...

On April 7. 2026, my cousin, Chrissy Galassi, experienced a medical emergency,
while at a public restaurant. She went into cardiac arrest...
Cardiac arrest can happen anywhere, at any time, and survival often depends on the people nearby taking action before first responders arrive. Early CPR and AED use can make the difference between life and death.
This isn’t just theory. It’s something we’ve seen firsthand.
We’re offering CPR & AED certification classes at Desert Monks Brewing to help more people feel confident stepping in during those critical first moments. These classes are led by an instructor with 20+ years of EMS experience and teaching since 2007, bringing real-world perspective to practical, hands-on training.
Classes are designed to be approachable, informative, and focused on what actually matters in an emergency:
• Recognizing cardiac arrest
• Performing high-quality CPR
• Using an AED with confidence
• Taking action before help arrives
Pricing is intentionally kept low to make training accessible:
• $15 — CPR & AED certification
• $20 — Certification + a beer after class
Whether you’ve never taken a class before or it’s been years since your last certification, this is an opportunity to gain (or refresh) a skill that can truly save a life.
More details and class dates will be announced soon.
