Private Bridge Lessons

SUPERVISED PLAY

Supervised play is a fun, affordable way to add learning to a session of bridge. Get a group of friends together and set up a game! I'll answer questions (and give some hints) during the hands, and after each deal I'll give a quick review of my recommended bidding as well as some practical tips and feedback on the play and defense. You can choose a 1.5, 2, or 2.5 hour session.
