    Helped me a lot in terms of learning how body moves, instinctively, and how to focus solely on your goal. Basically, there is life lessons in each drills, which will help you how to learn to read intentions based on movements. As a beginner, they were very welcoming, and really wants to help you be better. To more years, Alpha!
