Private Lessions

Since opening his first Table Tennis Center in 2004 Robert Chen has been coaching table tennis players of all ages.

In 2005, Robert traveled to Guangzhou Ersha Tao in China, where Table Tennis Olympic and World Champion Ma Long was training. The purpose of his trip was both to improve his personal play and learn the best teaching skills.

In 2009, Robert returned to China for more training and coaching. While he was visiting, he played on the first seeded team in his age group at the Tianjin national tournament (CCTA) and placed third out of 500 players.

For Begining Players

Sometimes people are introduced to table tennis in someone's small basement, by a person who isn't a very good player and doesn't understand that table tennis form and techinque are just as important as proper form and technique are in tennis, golf, and other sports.  A good coach will teach you how to do things correctly, improve your game, make table tennis much more enjoyable for you, and help you avoid injury

Some of the elements of table tennis are:

• Holding the racket
• Forehand Drive: Backswing, contact, follow-through, recovery
• Backhand
• Return of serve
• The Serve
• Spin
• Footwork
• Strategy
• Doubles Play
• Drills
• Physical Conditioning
