Since I live in the area, I will take lessons in San Francisco. I am tire of messy around and want to eliminate bad habits and guessing since I just got back into shooting pool recently. I'm frustrated and my friends wanted to get me into shooting pool again and I got my behind kicked in at Edgies in Mipitas tonight. One of my friends was able to hook me up for some cheap action and I lost 3 straights set of 9 ball race to 5. I was playing on the front table with tight pockets and since I was a new kid on the block there, I was aware that other players were checking my game out. I need to shoot for myself and not for someone else. I shouldn't be concern about what other people think, say or do and just concentrate on my shot. Easier said than done for me tonight. As a hobby I am a Kung Fu instructor ( and I feel that I'm competent because I can break down the moves for my students ) for 6 years now and I thought that I would be able to incorporate my Kung Fu Chi and confidence into pool....totally a different sport. So with all that explanation, there are 3 instructors listed on SFbilliards which are Bob Jewett, Joseph Mejia and Eric Harada. Which one of these would you recommend. Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
Like always, thanks in advance.

Don't focus on the loss, but you must understand why so you can learn from it. Stay positive even in losing and go forth with confidence. Winning will take care of itself once you have incorporated the lessons learned from one of those teachers you are considering. I did not realize Tom was in the bay area. Since he is a student of Randy G. I must give him my recommendation. His rates seem very reasonable and he has a weekend school coming up in a couple of weeks. Please visit his site and call him.
