"I’d say Ryan’s lesson was quite helpful, especially how he focused on my grip and footwork, I really felt like I got a clearer sense of fundamentals. Though, I still need some consistency, but I guess that’s part of the process. Still, I’d consider trying another lesson to keep building on what I learned.

"Oh, I guess I’ll give this lesson with Jonathan a pretty good mark. I shared what I wanted to work on, and he gave me straightforward advice and practical feedback, which really helped. Still, I think I need a few more lessons to feel completely confident, though, so I’ll probably try to keep improving with him.
