We use specific multiball feeding patterns to force your feet to move and your eyes to track the ball. You will often hear us say, "Ball dekh" (watch the ball) because most mistakes happen when you lose sight of the spin. You should expect to be corrected on your stance and weight transfer in every single session, because if the foundation is weak, the shot will never be consistent. Table tennis is not just about reflex, it is about muscle memory. When you land on our court at the Bhoir Sports Complex in New Panvel, you will not spend the whole time playing games. We break the sport down into actionable blocks: footwork, stroke mechanics, and spin control. ### Why We Drill Many players develop bad habits early, such as swinging too wide, staying flat-footed, or losing focus on the contact point. Our sessions involve high-intensity multiball feeding. This simulates match speed and forces you to react without thinking. Whether we are focusing on forehand drives or backhand pushes, the goal is the same: making your technique automatic so you can focus on strategy during a match. ### The Reflex Arc Approach * **Stance & Balance:** You cannot hit a powerful ball from an unstable position. We drill specific weight transfer exercises so you are always ready for the next return. * **The Robot Advantage:** We use automatic ball feeders to provide consistent, repetitive shots. This allows us to isolate specific technical flaws in your swing that a human partner might miss. * **Feedback Loops:** Coaching is constant. We do not just watch, we correct your grip, your follow-through, and your movement between shots. If you are looking for a casual hit, this might not be the place. We are here to build players who can compete at the district and state levels. Come prepared to sweat, listen, and repeat. ## About The Reflex Arc I am Akshar Bhati, and I started The Reflex Arc to change how table tennis is coached in Navi Mumbai.
