Where do folks practice rapid fire?

My wife and I have entered into handgun ownership with both home defense and recreation in mind. We both believe in the value of instruction and practice. Some training venues do provide an opportunity for certain tactical skills (e.g., rapid fire) while others do not.

I'm in California (San Francisco bay area) and public ranges preclude the use of a holster and limit rate of fire (1 sec or 3 sec interval between rounds, for example). It appears that IDPA may afford the best opportunity to practice some of these forbidden skills. Dry fire at home also has tremendous value in terms of trigger pull, reloads, draw stroke and such, but isn't a substitute for learning how to manage recoil in stressful situations.

How do others handle this need to train realistically, whether for HD or SD? Private ranges, competition, Airsoft, other?
