THE SCHOOL

乐 库 斯 学 院

Five volumes. Six modules. A curriculum of cue craft built on decades of international coaching. From the first stance to the tournament final — the disciplined way.

01 · Curriculum

The Six Modules.

A graded journey — from the first grip to the inner game.

M1 Foundation · 基 础

  • Stance, grip, bridge — the three anchors
  • Eye dominance & sighting system
  • The pendulum stroke — straight is a choice
  • Cue selection, weight, length, balance
  • Chalking the tip — the pre-shot ritual

M2 Aiming & Visualization · 瞄 准

  • Contact point, ghost ball, fractional aiming
  • Reading the object ball line
  • Visualization drills — see it before you strike
  • Deflection, squirt, and how to compensate
  • English — spin, swerve, and the throw

M3 Cue Power · 发 力

  • The kinetic chain — foot to fingertip
  • Wrist hinge — the accelerative snap
  • Pace control — soft, medium, firm, smash
  • Draw, follow, stun — translating force to spin
  • Long shots, thin cuts, and the pressure game

M4 Position Play · 走 位

  • The three angles — natural, reverse, hold-up
  • Cushion geometry — the table's geometry
  • Pattern play — run-out planning
  • Snooker escapes and safety play
  • Two-rail, three-rail, and beyond

M5 The Inner Game · 内 心

  • Self 1, Self 2 — the inner critic and the doer
  • Pre-shot routine — the repeatable moment
  • Pressure, focus, and the choke
  • Visualization, breath, and the quiet body
  • Recovery — from missed shot to next shot

M6 The Tournament Mind · 赛 场

  • Match strategy — slow down, speed up
  • Reading the opponent — patterns and tells
  • Equipment tuning under pressure
  • Energy, food, and the long day
  • Review, journal, and the post-match ritual
