We have invited a rare talent in Table Tennis a.k.a. Ping Pong to provide FREE coaching for new and beginner students, adults and children! This workshop will take place on Saturday, October 19th from 5:30pm to 8:00pm.
We hope to generate more interest and passion for Ping Pong in downtown Toronto.
Introducing Darren Dua
Darren started studying and learning ping pong at the age of 7. He fondly remembers training for 13 hours a day! Among his extensive credentials and experience is reaching 3rd rank in the India State of Delhi (more accurately NCT) and becoming a champion in his zone for 7 straight years.
He is excited to continue the next chapter of his life as a coach and carry on his passion, knowledge, and experience with anyone who wants to learn seriously.
In just 3 lessons, Master Dao has seen significant improvement in his game and skills. Although not quite battle-ready, Master Dao hopes to become an advanced player and compete in major tournaments.
"Darren is an excellent teacher. He can spot technical areas for improvement right away and push me to improve in the right order. That comes from the experience he earned from his master and through his tough training regimen. One of the greatest values of having a coach at his advanced level is to get instant answers to many questions about technique, strategy, and conditioning. It feels like taking a shortcut!" - Master Dao
We have a limit of 20 participants. Must of 7 years of age and older. If we have enough children, we may split the session into two - one for adults and one for children.
Please bring your ping pong racket if you have one. Non-marking indoor shoes are required.
