I want to purchase pool instruction in Seattle/South King County

There are many great instructors that can do online lessons if you have a table at home or set something up during quiet time at your pool room

One problem in finding a teacher is does your personality, and your mix. What can they teach you that you can not learn from reading a book? Watching a DVD, or U-tube?

In 2021 that is so much instructional material in print, on DVDs, and U-tube I am surprise there are not more great players.

Reason there are not is people read, view something once, missing or not remember 90% of what they just learned.

Also people hate this simple repetitive task to build mussel memory call practice. Most people hate practicing, playing is not quality practicing.

A DVD can't watch and give you feedback. You can't ask a DVD a question.

While these can help one understand basics and fundamental objectives, they have limited value IMO. Having trained performance working dogs I've seen a lot of instructional video's, utubes, etc. and guys trying to significantly improve their training abilities. There is NO substitute for working with a Pro or accomplished amateur on technique and nuance required to seriously improve.

You know how many guys read Golf Digest every month cover to cover and never improve a lick? Lots.

Things produced from Dr. Dave and CJ Wiley for example can be extremely helpful. However, in person instruction can be invaluable if you're really committed to improving your game.

Yeah, I get that, and I would be better if I practiced more, but I'm looking for the sort of help that I think is only possible in one on one instruction.

Specifically I feel I need help with my stroke. It's an issue that I just can't figure out how to correct.

Well many pros do I clinic for big bucks, I wonder the ods of retention what they teach long run?

Jerry Briesath live down road, hr will do four hours of instruction 350-500 bucks.

His classes are basic pool, but to point of building solid fundamentals.

Nope. I just like to play, and have 2 jobs already. If you lived near Chicago I’d play you sometime. For fun or table time. I don’t believe nobody around you has chimed in about playing some. there’s a new member with an intro after your intro that says he teaches online. Tom Worth

I should start a thread right now “looking for people to play with” or something to that effect. Ah probably would get a bit weird. But why isn’t there one?
