My friends and I decided to get a group lesson from Ross and it was awesome! We got a great understanding of the rules and after we were done we felt comfortable enough to be able to play on our own. Definitely coming back for another lesson!

Ross was great for a first time lesson. I was a little nervous having never played before but he was very welcoming and explained things so thoroughly and easy to understand!

Lesson 11+We will master the fundamentals of the game, hone in and make tweaks where needed and continue to improve our ability to play.
