I visit SquashRx to receive squash lessons from Simone. Simone is an incredible teacher, very professional and has helped me improve my squash game dramatically. Simone is a former professional squash athlete and can coach levels from very basic to advanced, all while keeping it fun and interesting. I compete in a local league and am very grateful for our squash sessions. Every lesson is an absolute pleasure!

This location just has 1 squash court. For reserving the space, it's very self-service. My friend and I came to play Saturday morning, and it seems like there's no organizer or worker there at all to keep things in check. The email confirming the reservation is very detailed. There are 4 rackets you can rent, and they are all in the locker, which tou scan a QR code to pay and get the lock combo. There's a speaker that you can connect your phone to to play music. There are 2 bathrooms. There's a water station, but no cups, so bring your own water bottle to refill. It's a good space, and it's very private, but with no organizer, I can see how things can get a little messy, especially when multiple parties start showing up early or leaving late. Seems like it's an honor system. The court was good and well-lit, but the space and how it is run feels makeshift.

My kids have been training with Coach Simone since November 2022. They are ages 9 and 7, respectively. I could not be happier with the progress they have made over these years, both in technique and focus. Coach Simone knows how to extract the best out of your children without burdening them with unrealistic pressures or expectations. Both my kids have learned to love squash and look forward to their sessions at SquashRx. Cannot recommend it enough!

Have had great experiences having been a novice to working my way up to a mid tier player working under Simone. The entire experience is seamless with a slick online booking system and a great round robin session from time to time and a great tournament. Also given the lack of membership fees, this is the most flexible squash club membership in NYC! Highly recommend.

I have had the best experience working with SquashRx. After a 15 year hiatus, I decided to pick squash back up and came across SquashRx online. I have now had the pleasure of training with Simone and Nadim in the beginner clinic, the progress clinic, and in 1:1 lessons and would recommend them to players of any level. They helped me quickly gain confidence and build up skills I thought I had lost, all while having the best attitude. I also joined the league and have had so much fun meeting players from all over NYC. I am so proud of how far I’ve come in a few short months thanks to my coaches and peers at SquashRx and I look forward to continuing the progress in what is sure to be a lifelong sport for me!
