A few comments/suggestions in no particular order:

Training classes are a very good idea for anyone decding to carry a handgun.
INSIDE the waistband holsters are much more concealed, and generally provide for better retention.
I'm not a fan of active retention mechanisms on concealed-carry guns.
Any retention technique should also involve striking/beating your opponent with your available hand ... preferably with something like a coffee mug, flashlight, knife, etc.
A good grip on the gun is probably the best overall retention technique.
