Partner coach's private lessons (Coach Akiho Shimoyama)

Click here to make a web reservation

A highly skilled player with a third-place finish in the All Japan Corporate Championships!
An extremely rare "left-handed penholder" coach

Coach Akiho Shimoyama has a brilliant record, having competed in the Inter-High School Championships, Intercollegiate Championships, and as a top player in the corporate league, "Clover Dental Fairies," and achieving 3rd place in the All Japan Corporate Championships and reaching the top 16 in the All Japan Championships.

His left-handed penhold grip with inverted rubber on both sides is extremely rare in the modern table tennis world, and his exceptional serve, table handling, and powerful two-handed backspin drives are truly a must-see. He is the perfect coach for anyone looking to break through technical and tactical barriers as a fellow penholder, as well as for shakehand players who want to thoroughly hone their "countermeasures against left-handed penholders."

Why not aim to improve your skills while experiencing top-level techniques firsthand?
