Meet Your Coach Coach
I’m passionate about teaching table tennis because through being involved in the sport I learned about discipline, competition, and resilience. Table tennis or a more casual way to call it ping pong, also opened doors for me to meet friends, travel around the world, and experience other cultures. Playing table tennis provides benefits that strengthen the mind and body, and it is great for overall health and well-being. My mission is to empower people to stay active, create healthy lifestyle habits and mental skills on and off the table.

Mental Benefits
1. Enhances Mental Alertness: The fast-paced nature of the game requires quick thinking and strategy, stimulating brain activity and improving mental sharpness.
2. Improves Concentration: Focusing on the ball, anticipating your opponent’s next move, and strategizing your own shots help enhance focus and concentration over time.
3. Reduces Stress: Physical activity, including table tennis, releases endorphins, which can help reduce stress, elevate mood, and improve overall mental health.
4. Encourages Strategic Thinking: Players need to anticipate their opponent’s moves and develop strategies, promoting critical thinking and problem-solving skills.
