Private Billiards Teacher

I have been a PBIA instructor for over 13 years as well as player for 20+ years. I am no magician, I cannot make anyone a better pool player! However, for those that are interested and motivated, I can provide the knowledge, guidance and tools for any player to become their own coach and maximize their skills.

About James (JP)

I can teach you anything from fundamentals like stance, pre-shot routine and stroke mechanics to more advanced concepts such as bank and kick shots, jump shots, combinations, caroms and billiard shots. So no matter if you've never held a pool cue or you're a seasoned veteran, take your game to the n

James is very knowledgeable and his approach to teaching the game is excellent. To be a better pool player, you need a stroke and setup that works with your unique body. In addition, you need to understand the ball behavior in order to improve your aim. James ensured that I developed this throughout our lessons. James will identify your flaws and correct them. I look forward to more lessons in the future.

JP is a great instructor. From fundamentals to advanced play, he has helped me improve my understanding of the game and make substantial improvements in the short time I’ve been working with him.

After the first lesson I realized I have a lot to learn about this game.

Jill ..

Kim was awesome!! Very patient and entertaining - while still getting the job done! He's got a great perspective on the importance of the basics how that foundation - even simple tweaks - will make a difference that grows as my skills do. "Don't rehearse the curse" - play consciously, so every shot is on purpose...with the correct mechanics. GREAT instructor!!!

Sharing the words and wisdom of Irving Crane...

I have played billiards and devised inventions as well as new games over the many years. My mentor in the game and the art of pocket billiards was Irving Crane. Teaching the finer principles of the game and the psychology of performance at the billiard table is a legacy I would like to pass on in my life. So, here I am.

If you would like to learn how not to stress out over the last ball, how to breath properly, align your shot, aim, follow through and visualize the entirety of the shot- that is a good foundation. How to plan and treat the game as a chess board, think through many shots in advance and choose the right path as it changes... these are good building blocks. if you would like your blood pressure to go down while your opponent's goes up, its a good topper.

Most importantly, billiards is a game of the mind first and foremost. We play against ourselves before we play the opponent. Knowing your own process of ...

Joseph has a wealth of knowledge about speaking, listening, vocals, etc.

He created a welcoming environment in our online lessons that made it easy to be vulnerable and get right to working on new skills.

I highly recommend for others looking to better understand their voice and communication style, and learn to hone them.

Catherine K.

Joseph put us at ease immediately. Our first lesson included valuable information on how to warm up our voices, increase our range and protect our voices. We look forward to our next lesson.

Donna

I have been studying piano with Joseph for nearly five years. In that time, I’ve learned more about the piano and musical interpretation than I ever thought possible.

Joseph’s technical ‘short cuts’ are amazing! He illustrates ways for your hands and your mind to work that are tailor made for you. Learning from him is so fun it seems almost effortless.

The way Joseph teaches allows you to develop at your own pace. The atmosphere is always relaxed yet everything moves along quickly.

At the open classes I attend, his other students are progressing very rapidly too. After each class, we share our impressions. The mood is elated because it feels like we stepped back in time and into history.

Joseph often quotes inspired wisdom of his historic teachers in our lessons. He is a great inspiration on his own with great musical insights.

I’m playing Beethoven and Chopin works I never thought I could approach at this stage of study, with great depth of understanding. I now play with greater passion and skill, get compliments from everyone I play for, and no longer worry about playing in public.

I look forward to each and every lesson with Joseph. His encouragement and support makes learning so rewarding! Anyone who finds this musical treasure is a lucky person and I cannot recommend him highly enough.

"David is a very cool dude. He has awesome pool playing skills and he was always great at coaching my teammates on time outs. He would share his knowledge on the best way to approach a shot. He loves the game of pool and he helped us become # 1 in our league. Thanks David!"

"David is a phenomenal instructor! He really ironed out my stroke and taught me the proper fundamentals. It’s so easy to pick up bad habits in pool, but David was extremely patient and fixed every flaw. You can tell he’s extremely knowledgeable about the cue stroke and sport. I highly recommend his expertise to polish your game!"

Matt

"My name is David Owens I have always enjoyed playing pool. To be honest even though I have played many years my skill level has not progressed above a beginner’s, I would miss as many shots as I made. But once I started receiving coaching from David Dugally that all changed. Mr. Dugally introduced and coached me in the approach used by the great shape pool players. I would highly recommend David D.’s training for all, no matter your level of play. You will win more eight ball, nine ball or straight pool games. Mr. Dugally will teach you techniques that will allow you to run ball after ball. Because he teaches you how to make your shot with the right spin to position the cue ball so your next shot is an easy shot (or very importantly) the cue ball is positioned where your opponent has a difficult shot if your likely to miss."

"Great teaching style. He helped my 9 yo daughter with practice tips to develop proper fundamentals. Excellent experience. I picked up a thing or two as well!"

Emalia

"When things click between instructor and student learning becomes a lot easier. I went into my first lesson with an open mind, and I was not disappointed. What JP explained to me had as much to do with his choice of words as it did with the credibility of his statements. We covered a lot of basics which I already knew, but how he explained them was in terms that I hadn't thought about. This prompted me to slow down and put more effort/concentration into each shot."
