I saw he had been on the news a few time being interviewed due to his training. So I felt pretty good about it. I arrived on time and knocked on the door. No answer for about 7 minutes.

He took notice of my issue from another lane and offered to step in to help. He ended up spending an hour with me on my technique, and didn't charge me a dime. A week later, I met with him and his partner, Spence, for a formal training session. They covered several areas with several types of firearms. They helped me with my form, my stance, and getting me used to a variety of different firearms and ammo. Tunwa even rented several different firearms to see what I might prefer for CNC. The lesson was very thorough, and I have observed a great deal of improvement from the time I have spent with these guys. Super friendly, personable, prepared with everything you need, offers a variety of solutions, works with you and modifies form accordingly, and more more more! I highly recommend using their expertise to improve your own technique and safety awareness

They were that meaningful -- even profound in some ways. That's the mark of a great teacher!

Unfortunately I never finished the last class, but wow, as I thought about it, Steven taught method acting like none other. Pure genius. Pretty much in line with the teachings of Stanislavski and Chekhov, but with Stevens' own blend of artistry mixed in! Without a doubt, his classes gave me the drive and ambition to pursue my acting career. And thankfully, I've been involved in some really, really, awesome projects. Thanks Steven! Highly Recommended!!!!!!
