What do you need to work on? You tell me what you feel that you need to work on, we will drill/play, and I’ll evaluate your game, technique, and habits.

Focus is on keeping the game fun without burdening them with too much information.

When teaching kids, I adapt my lessons to be fun and engaging, using games and activities that make learning enjoyable. I focus on building a strong foundation in the basics while incorporating age-appropriate drills and exercises that keep their interest and energy levels high. Patience and encouragement are key, as I strive to create a positive and supportive environment where young players feel confident and excited to learn.

I like working with kids as a group and individually in order to really focus on their skill set, discipline, and focus. My goal is to create a fun, enjoyable, and safe learning environment for kids (and all age groups) by building a solid foundation of the game. Being a mentor and role model is something that I take pride in.
