Dynamic Defense & Beyond with Curt Soloff

£32 every 4 weeks with 1 week free trial

Memorization of key concepts in bridge is unavoidable, but for players to ascend and truly improve at the game, developing your thought process is essential. 

Curt employs a teaching style designed to highlight and grow that thought process and keep students from relying too heavily on rules and rote memorization.  Curt takes students on a journey through many facets of the game with special attention to defense, the most difficult part of the game and the part most dependent on seeing beyond the 13 cards in your own hand and thinking on a deeper level.

“I was a beginner bridge player when I started taking bridge lessons from Curt 3 years ago. My understanding of the bidding, play of the hand and defense has greatly improved. I was hearing about so many different “Best Practices” from so many different people at the ‘Club’ that it was overwhelming and confusing. Curt’s teaching method, patient approach and communication skills has allowed me to make significant advancements in my understanding and implementation of my Bridge game. Curt has helped me gain confidence, comfort, and more success at the bridge table.” – Bob B.

 

“I’m grateful to have Curt teaching me the game of Bridge. He’s extremely articulate and is able to explain the intricacies of bidding and play of the hands in a way that makes things clear and understandable. I’ve been taking lessons from him for three years, and throughout that time he has been patient, even when I repeat the same mistakes. He’ll remind me, and/or explain it again with patience and clarity. He also puts together teaching series focused on various subjects such as bidding conventions. These have been extremely helpful in advancing my understanding of the game. Overall, because of his teaching, my bridge skills have improved dramatically.”  – Jan Y.

 

“Curt is an amazing teacher. He stays on task, and does not go off on tangents. He is very knowledgeable about bridge, and presents the material in a clear and concise manner. He presents the material so it makes sense, and he has a kind way of explaining why you cannot make crazy bids! He is very generous with his time and I feel I can ask him any question, no matter how basic, or silly. He is an amazing man.”  – Sandra M.
