All my online lessons are more than just lectures. I give an engaging explanation of the
day's topic; then you play deals to practice what you're learning in my awesome
Shark Bridge classroom. Afterwards, you see all four hands as I review the best techniques.
In addition to my scheduled lessons, I have several courses you can take
on your own time, complete with practice deals and video!

My scheduled online courses with Zoom & Shark Bridge

the good fortune to be traveling in the UK this summer
and working on a non-bridge project this Fall.)
Check out my Anytime courses to the right!
These are always available.
New lessons starting January 2027 will be posted here in
mid-November.
