Hey guys, Friend emailed this clipping from Newsday the largest newspaper on Long Island, NY. Just thought it was interesting to see what they charged over there for lessons in comparison to Australia. How do you think Australia's prices compare? We charge $180 for 2 hours max 2 students. Most students do 2 x 2hour sessions on average.

I'm guessing insurance plays a big part in the US pricing given the "we'll sue you" mentality in the states.

Pad pong has some cheap Ping Pong lessons compared to Australia to. I think the balls are cheaper over there as well.

Especially if your daddy has a house in the Hamptons. For comparison Real in North Carolina charge $100/hr for two max 2 people (only slightly more than arsa)
