"The lesson was quite helpful for my overall tennis technique, though I think there’s still some room for improvement, especially with my backhand. Cidny's insights were practical and easy to follow, which I appreciated, but I’m hoping future lessons can build on the fundamentals further. Interestingly, the focus on footwork really made a difference for me. If you're considering trying a lesson, I’d say give Cidny a shot and see how it goes.
