Hi everyone,

You might remember me from this post: https://www.tabletennisdaily.com/fo...ches-in-the-world-and-i-still-suck-ama.37483/

Anyways I've been living in Kobe, Japan for 4 months and I've had the chance to train with Kazuhiro Chan and his wife Risa Chan who both extremely high level players in the past.
Some highlights: Kazuhiro played for Chinese Super League and Polish League. He was the coach of Atreema in J-league. And has a bunch of accomplishments you can read below. He famously beat Ma Long 3-0!
His wife, and also coach, Risa Chan was Ai fukuhara personal coach.
I trained with ether one of them for about 90 minutes 3-4 times a week for 2 months. The main reason I'm sharing this is because I really had such a great experience at their club and want to make sure people get a chance to visit them when they're in Kobe! You can reach out to them here from their website.

Best training experience of my life! www.kobetabletennis.com

Additionally, I am publishing most of my training sessions on my youtube channel. I'm not a Youtube at all, the videos are just raw, unedited, and you can hear about all the random things we talk about. I have nothing to sell, just wanted to share my personal experience and encourage you guys to train more!!!!!!

AMA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

That sounds like an incredible opportunity. Training with coaches of that level for several months must have given you insights that are hard to get anywhere else. I also appreciate that you're sharing full, unedited sessions instead of just highlight clips—it makes the learning process much more realistic.

Thanks for taking the time to post this and answer questions. I'm sure it'll be really useful for anyone thinking about training in Japan or visiting Kobe in the future.
