Defense

A defense course is a must for any bridge player who wants to make a leap in their game. The bridge game is divided into 3 parts: the bid, the hand game and the defense. Most bridge players neglect the defensive part of the game and rely on their intuition or experience to help them make the right decision in defense. But why build on luck? In the course you will get tools that will bring us to optimal cooperation and quality communication with the partner just like we are trying to achieve in the tender.

Why do we need to understand defense?

"The course that will make you a winning player!

A defensive course is a must for any bridge player who wants to take a leap in their game. The bridge game is divided into three parts: the bidding, the hand game, and the defense. Most bridge players neglect the defensive part of the game and rely on their intuition or experience to help them make the right decision in defense.

But why rely on luck?
In the course, you will receive tools that will lead to optimal cooperation and high-quality communication with your partner, just like in the bidding process.”

Did you know that 50% of the bridge games are played in defense? Have you ever thought about how many study hours you’ve dedicated to learning how to defend?

For most players, it’s only about 5-10% of their study time. While they learn the bidding system (because there’s no other choice) and improve their hand game (the most fun – a one-man show), defense is often neglected.

This means that defense is the weakest point for most players. Investing in improving defense can make you better than 99% of the players.

I recommend that players take a defense course at least once a year to sharpen and maintain their skills

What our students say

“Barak is a wonderful teacher. He is very easy to understand and he is very systematic. I am very bad at doing homework or taking notes, but still, Barak seems to get the right bridge moves and strategy into my head and my memory. He is great. Barak's lessons are fun.”

“My bridge guru, Barak Lieberman, is excellent at explaining the rules and strategies of bridge and is super patient with his students. He never tires of revising and repeating the lesson until it is completely comprehended. Barak's unique style of teaching bridge empowers you to challenge yourself and to love the game!!”

“I have been learning bridge on-and-off for about thirty years, with various teachers, and while I've always enjoyed playing, and always learned more rules and tactics, I never really 'got it' until I started my weekly, wonderful lessons with Barak. Barak does more than teach the rules, he actually shows his students the underlying rationale involved, and his lessons are eye-opening and exciting. Of course, he is also very organized, always prepared with pre-dealt cards and a subject, and very methodical - as well as friendly and pleasant.”
