About This Class

Practice a concept, then put it into action. Drill & Play combines focused instruction with coached games to help you carry what you learn into match situations.

The first half of class introduces a weekly skill or strategy through demonstrations and targeted drills. The second half features games designed to encourage that concept, with coaching and feedback along the way.

You’ll work on:

Developing the technique behind the weekly focus.

Understanding when and why to use it.

Recognizing opportunities during live points.

Improving shot selection and court awareness.

Maintaining execution under game pressure.

Making adjustments based on instructor feedback.

Each session connects focused practice with practical game experience.

Minimum Registration

Classes run with 2 or more players. If only 1 player is registered, the class will automatically be canceled.
