“This is the best bridge learning experience I’ve had. I struggle with processing new information and appreciate being able to review lessons as needed. Joan, your delivery is excellent—no pressure, just a comfortable learning environment. Kudos to you and your team!”

“I like the current format. Joan is able to manage the pace of the class, answer all questions especially off topic, and teach us to use logic which is probably one of the more difficult areas. Joan can play the hand and talk at the same time while remembering where the cards are located.
I can get a feel of her concentration/thought process in real games. I get to see this too when she is analyzing hands in OSB lessons, very valuable to me.”

“Absolutely love your site. I go on it every day to learn and practice.
The thing I learn the most from (apart from your videos which are excellent) are the practice hands. If you are looking for ways to extend your brand, I would buy extra practice hands for specific topics in a heartbeat. (Ie 15 practice hands on Doubles) I seriously would buy pretty much every topic!
Just wanted to check in and say thanks for all your content and effort and for sharing your knowledge.”
Anne Schuster
“I really enjoy your approach to learning and the interactive approach with each hand commentary is extremely helpful. Your detailed explanations makes a difficult subject a lot easier to understand. I am addicted to your site and hope to become a better player in due course.”
