Social bridge players SERIOUSLY
have fun! Hi, my name is Denise Dodd and I’m a
dedicated Bridge Teacher who has been teaching for fifteen years and playing
bridge for twenty-seven. I love the challenge of a new class, of
seeing students blossom as they learn a new skill. My aim is to create a relaxed and friendly
environment – a place where people can meet and learn in a stress-free
atmosphere. Life is stressful enough.
“Social” is an important part of all my bridge sessions. Physical fitness was very important when I
was growing up. Now “Mental Fitness”
is just as important as we move into the next phase of our lives. Bridge is one of the best ways to practice
the “use it or lose it” advice for maintaining mental sharpness. Medical
Research shows that regular bridge playing improves reasoning skills and long
and short term memory. Bridge is, and continues to be, an important training
tool for the brain. Bridge will never bore you. The game can be exciting, challenging,
frustrating and humbling, but it will never be boring. There are billions of possible bridge hands
(you’ll never see the same hand twice!) so there is something new on every
deal. Each bridge hand takes just five
to ten minutes to play before you move on to the next, so there are endless
possibilities. If you haven’t played before, this is the
time to start. If you already play bridge and need to reconnect, this is the
site! |
