We had Cliff as our instructor, who was fantastic. He had a clear curriculum, kept the pace moving, and promoted a very welcoming/non-judgmental environment. I was particularly impressed by how well he balanced giving everyone a chance to practice vs. moving topics (which can be difficult with a large class). He also made sure to leave time for some basic rallies at the end! By the end of the lesson and some time to practice on our own, we were able to serve and sustain rallies & were all very sore the next day. It's really in the small details that made this a really impactful experience though. Cliff went above and beyond by giving us a sense of what's possible, intentionally learning our names & why we wanted to learn squash, being easily contactable via email, and giving us YouTube tutorials to learn more. Lastly, the courts were well-maintained and we were provided with loaner rackets, protective eyewear, & plenty of places to change clothes. This was a welcome surprise, especially for how affordable the classes are. Kudos to Cliff and Szilvia (who we got to meet on our way out) for making squash accessible!

My family is very fortunate to be a part of the LearnSquash community. Coaches Szilvia, Cliff and…read moreEric have helped my two teens (13 & 15) to achieve dramatic improvement in their games. Both of them started playing squash as beginners with LearnSquash and were able to get to competitive levels on their school teams within a few months. LearnSquash offers weekly private & semi-private lessons, clinics, an academy (for more advanced players) and summer camps. The schedules are flexible and my children have participated in all the different lesson formats to maximize their growth. Coach Cliff is very well organized with the weekly schedules and is very accommodating to fit a teen's busy schedule. The clinics are a great balance of rigor and fun. The coaches have a special niche in working with children of all ages and skill levels to pique their interests, improve their skills with fun drills and organized matches. Private and semi-private lessons with coaches Eric and Cliff are very rewarding. They work the kids very hard and tailor the lessons to each player's unique needs and personal areas for improvement. Everything is done in a very professional and nurturing way. Their home base, the Winsor squash facility, is brand new, safe and convenient for parents to park and either observe the lessons or run errands nearby. We highly recommend LearnSquash to anyone who wants to take their game to the next level!

Its amenities also include a gym with weights and cardio gear, real tennis, racquets, an events hall, great locker room, and to top it off - a fantastic bar (pool table, backgammon, and darts included). This is a traditional club and the atmosphere is exactly that. The locker rooms are dimly lit, include a sitting room, and are furnished with antiques. The bar has plenty of wood panels and antique prints. But don't be fooled -- the members are not stuffy at all. This is a group of fun, easy-going, and welcoming people. Its the best place to work out in town. And perhaps the best place to get a drink.

I've stopped by this shop several times, and though I'm a beginner, the person I go with is pretty experienced. But for some reason, every time we came here, I felt like the owner did not want to help us. I don't know what it was, because I'm generally super polite when I first meet people - especially if I need help. I don't want to assume, but for whatever reason, the staff here was extremely unfriendly to us every time we stopped by. And I noticed this even more a couple of times when the owner was helping other customers in the store - and being extra nice to them. Even other beginners. I just felt really unwanted and out of place. I'm not going to repeat the rude things the owner said to us, but it was very clear he didn't want our business. I'm really disappointed especially since there isn't an abundance of tennis and squash shops around.

Also as a Varsity Card holder, I get special invitations to private parties with free access and even free drinks! If you play on a league, you receive 10% off your individual team fee. The card can also be used at various venues for no line/no cover access and 10 - 20 % discounts on foods and products. Additionally, the card already comes equipped with $25 from BuyYourFriendADrink.com to use at participating bars! The best part is that I only have to carry one card to get all these discounts and special access, all the while doubling as my BYFAD card. Just a Note: SBS also offers a JV card as well with similar discounts and access.

I can see this as a fine after work happy hour beer and oyster spot. Cocktails - all were overly sweet and weak. The Hugo spritz tasted overwhelmingly of soda water, and the Georgia Peach had a really strong artificial (schnapps?) peach taste. For a $15 cocktail most nearby locations will use peach puree or juice. The oysters were as expected and served quickly. Sourdough bread was cold, but the butter was great! Lamb skewers and octopus were overcooked. The worst part is that the dishes have the right idea and ingredients, but the execution was disappointing- maybe a new chef is needed. I've tried most of the restaurants in the area for pre-show meals and this is one of the few to which I will not return. Seems lovely for after work beers though, especially when the outdoor patio opens!
