Dear Johnny,

How have you been lately? I am writing this email in response to your request in regards to adopting a new sport.

Judging from your physicality and skills in swinging a racket, my suggestion is for you to learn ping pong. Even though you are required to use a ping pong paddle instead of an actual racket, the principle behind gripping and swinging the item is quite similar.

Out of all the sports, table tennis is the one I am most well versed in so I think I can teach some techniques. But basically, for the first few days, I want you to familiarize your ping pong paddle first before practice serving and passing the ball. As times goes by, we will slowing moving on the more advance moves.

If you want to an expert in this area, my idea is for you to come over to my place as I already have prepared a ping pong table beforehand.

I look forward to hearing from you soon.

Sincerely,

Huu Duc Pham
