PRIVATE SQUASH LESSONS
The Lake Forest Recreation Department has partnered with John to offer our community’s Squash enthusiasts the opportunity to gain
the skills needed to develop their game through private lessons. These sessions will sharpen your existing skills or build your skill
sets from scratch. Lesson plans will be tailored to your goals. Before your first session, John will schedule a conversation with you to
discuss what you want to achieve in your session or sessions. All sessions must be paid for prior to stepping on the court. Registration
must be done in person at the Service Desk of The Lake Forest Recreation Department.
