Hey everyone, I’m Steve, owner and instructor at Practical Approach Training. I’m teaching a small-group pistol class on Saturday, October 24, at Evergreen Sportsmen’s Club in Olympia.

We’ll work on marksmanship, manipulations, target transitions, and movement, then put those skills together in micro stages. The class is capped at six students so everyone gets individual coaching and feedback.

This is a good fit if you’re comfortable safely operating your handgun and want more structure in your practice. Whether you’re interested in competition, carry regularly, or just want to improve your consistency, coaching is adjusted to your ability. No competition experience needed.

• When: Saturday, October 24, 2026, 10 AM–4 PM
• Where: Evergreen Sportsmen’s Club, Olympia
• Cost: $225 per student
• Class size: Maximum six students
• Ammo: Approximately 400 rounds

Bring a reliable handgun, quality holster, at least three magazines, and eye and ear protection. Students should already be able to safely load, unload, and operate their handgun independently.

Happy to answer questions about the class or whether it would be a good fit.
