"Mike showed me why I was continuing to miss the same 3rd ball drop on my forehand. I've been playing the same for so long I'm trying to change it and I see how it helps, it's just hard to fix old habits. I'm planning on more lessons with him because it's already helped.

My cousin and I (the one who use to walk with me) said the training did so much for her mentally and physically. She was swimming with the swim team and told me she wanted to cry but she just decided to push through. I love it! Anyway, just wanted you to know you have made a difference. Have a great weekend!!
