Hi EB ~ I have always been the type of person who reflects on my actions and if I'm wrong, I'll stand up and take the heat. Well this is one of those times: Last week my personal life was in somewhat turmoil with far too many obligations on my head to a point where I wasn't giving any of them the quality of thought, they deserved. You asked a very simply, important & appropriate question which I am very familiar with and yet, I dropped the ball with you and for that, I am embarrassed because as a Coach in Tennis, I feel it is my duty to provide the best information I can and if someone questions me on a topic I'm not educated enough on, then I do whatever it takes to find out. But my life became center stage over my obligation to you and this Forum and for that, I am truly sorry. I can only hope you found out the purpose & practice of using the Split Step and also hope you trust any further question(s) you my have I will be more than happy to assist you with all my zeal. Sincerely, Coach
