"There was no lesson it was pretty disappointing, mainly because I felt pressured to accept options I wasnāt comfortable with and you clearly didnāt do enough to confirm with the coach beforehand what would he accept virgins and combine to ask me to come his way 1 hr from me that he can't come that way ( he is not doing me a favor and I clearly don't appreciate you sending someone who is now asking u to ask me to come an hour away when he and I have agreed he can't fit in Virginia that he earlier accepted the job for )Still, I think it would be good to be more proactive in checking details next time. George didn't hv any lessons with me as he doesn't work in Virginia but accepted the job I feel he is being manipulative and I wouldn't want to work with him

"Honestly, I was quite pleased with the lesson, especially how Dylan emphasized controlling the ball under pressure , that really helped me feel more confident during drills. Still, I think a bit more focus on position awareness could make the next lesson even better, but overall, Iād say it was quite helpful. If youāre looking to improve your touch and decision-making, Dylan might be worth trying out.
