"The lesson with Max really helped improve my dinking and overheads, and I also focused on my footwork which was pretty helpful. Still, I think adding more power to my game would make a big difference, so I’m hoping to work on that in future lessons. It’s encouraging to see progress though, and I’ll definitely try to build on what we covered.
