If your shuttle trajectory is too high, I will stop the drill, fix your grip, and ensure you learn to hit flat. It is about converting practice mistakes into tournament points, not just burning calories. Badminton is a game of rapid decisions and explosive movement. The work you see on this page is the foundation of competitive play—multi-shuttle feeds, pressure-packed 3v1 rallies, and the relentless footwork sessions that turn casual players into serious competitors. We do not believe in endless rallies where you just 'play' the game. We believe in controlled, high-frequency repetitions that build muscle memory. Whether you are at our Nerul academy or training at our Vashi or Kalyan centers, the intensity remains the same. We use multi-shuttle feeding to force you into situations where you have to smash, defend, or lift under extreme fatigue. **How we structure training:** - **Multi-Shuttle Feeding:** I feed 20 to 30 shuttles per set. You aren't standing around waiting for the shuttle; you are constantly moving. - **Match Pressure:** Our 3v1 drills force you to defend against multiple attacks, mirroring the intense pressure of district or state tournaments. - **Technique Correction:** If your smash has an arc, we fix it until it is flat. If your racket carriage is low, we correct it instantly. We focus on the 'V-grip' and proper chasse footwork. - **Physical & Mental:** We integrate agility ladders, resistance bands, and focus drills to ensure your body keeps up with your tactical mind. This is not a leisure activity. If you are here, you are ready to be uncomfortable, to get your technique audited, and to start winning. If you are ready for that level of honesty, we are ready to coach you. ## About Navodaya Badminton Academy I am Shrishail Mitkari. I do not care how many years you have played; I care about how you play today. I am the one screaming 'Quick, quick!' while you are mid-lunge because that is the only way you will reach the shuttle in time. We work on the foundation, the grit, and the point-winning mindset.
