    Why This Clinic Works:

    Progressive learning approach where each session builds on previous skills
    Practical drills that translate directly to game situations
    Focus on the crucial "RREI Method" (Ready-React-Execute-Improve) used by advanced players
    Small group instruction with personalized feedback
    Participants consistently report:

    Fewer injuries through proper preparation and movement
    More confident positioning and shot selection
    Better communication with partners
    Dramatic improvement in kitchen line control
