The approach
No matter where you bowl in the world, you can get my coaching. Two-handed is all I do. It's the fastest-growing style in the game, and it's a genuinely different discipline — the footwork, the timing, the release and the equipment choices are not the same as the one-handed game, which is why most coaches struggle to teach it well.
You send me video of your game. I watch it angle by angle, then send back a clear, honest breakdown of what's working, what's holding you back, and exactly what to do about it — with drills you can take straight to the lanes. That's my own game in the clip at the top of the page — and there's a short walkthrough below of how the lessons work.
About me
I'm Christopher Sloan. I'm not a general bowling coach who also does a bit of two-handed on the side — two-handed is my specialism, and it's what I've built my coaching around. It's the fastest-growing style in the modern game, and it's a genuinely different physical game: the footwork, the timing, the wrist and hand positions, and the equipment choices all change.
Away from coaching I'm Chairperson and President of Tenpin Ireland, our national governing body, and a Sport Tour developer for the sport. I've presented coaching seminars across Europe, Asia and the USA. What I teach here is the same material I deliver in those seminars — now one-to-one, on your schedule, wherever you bowl.
A word from Chris
Press play for a quick hello — who I am, why two-handed is all I do, and what to expect when you send me your game.
How it works
No travel, no scheduling around my diary — and you keep every analysis to refer back to.
You fill out a short form about your background, your goals, and what's frustrating you — so the analysis is grounded in your game, not just what I see on screen.
Two to five clips on your phone at 720p — at least one from behind and one from the side, one shot per file. Full setup guide below.
I analyze your video angle by angle and send back a personalized video breakdown with drills you can take straight to the lanes.
Good video makes a real difference to the quality of your analysis. Here's exactly where to stand and how to set up your phone so I can see everything I need.
Send two to five clips — the more angles, the better. These give me what I need:
From behind: phone vertical, at shoulder height, your whole body in frame. Don't zoom in.
From the side: phone horizontal, following you from first step to release. Stay centered; you can stop at the release.
Three-quarter view: stand a step or two behind and a few to the side, phone vertical, whole swing and footwork visible.
Record at 720p, 30 fps — that's the sweet spot for motion analysis. Slow-motion and anything above 720p create files that are harder to work with, so stick with standard video at 720p.
Send two to five clips, at least one from behind and one from the side. Trim each to a single shot — one shot per file. Accepted formats: .MOV, .MP4, .AVI. Please don't send YouTube links; I need the actual video file.
Preferred: attach your files directly on the Video Upload form. Or: upload to Dropbox / Google Drive / OneDrive and share the link via the contact form.
You'll usually have your analysis back within [CONFIRM: 2–5] business days of submitting your video. If it's been longer, check your spam folder first — that's the most common reason a lesson link goes missing — then get in touch and I'll follow up.
Lessons
Most bowlers start with a free call or a full assessment, then add follow-ups as their game changes. Prices are in euro, with an approximate US dollar figure alongside. Secure checkout by Stripe.
Fifteen minutes on video to talk through your game, answer your questions, and figure out whether two-handed — and my coaching — is right for you. No obligation.
Book the callThe best place to start if you're new to my coaching, or you want a proper look at where your two-handed game stands right now — with a clear plan for what to work on next.
See full detailsThe full assessment plus one follow-up once you've had time to practice — so we can check the changes are sticking before your next league or event.
See full detailsFor bowlers who are serious about lasting change. A full assessment, then up to five check-ins across the year as your game develops. The most structured path — good for tournament prep or breaking a plateau.
See full detailsA focused tune-up if we've worked together before. Send new video, tell me what's working and what isn't, and I'll give you targeted fixes to sharpen your game before an event.

New to my coaching, or ready for a complete baseline of your two-handed game? Start here.
I start by reading your bowling history — your background, what's frustrating you, and what you're trying to achieve — so the analysis is grounded in your game, not just what I see on screen. Then I work through your video angle by angle and give you specific, usable feedback you can take straight to the lanes.
What's included:
How to get started:
Start strong and follow through — the assessment plus one check-in, bundled.
The full Comprehensive Assessment, plus one Maintenance Evaluation once you've had time to work on things. It's the most reliable way to make sure the changes are holding up and to fine-tune anything that needs it.
Submit your history and video, get your assessment, practice the adjustments, then send a follow-up clip for your second look.
How to get started:
One assessment plus five follow-ups, usable over 12 months.
Real improvement takes time and repetition, and this is built around that. You start with a full assessment, then check in with me up to five more times over the next year as your game evolves. Each follow-up keeps you on track, deals with new challenges, and locks in the progress you've made.
What's included:
How to get started:
Already worked with me? This is your check-in.
Send new video along with a quick note — what's improved, what still needs work, and what you're preparing for — and I'll give you a focused breakdown with specific adjustments to keep your game moving forward. It's the most affordable way to stay sharp between bigger sessions, and a good idea before a tournament or a new league season.
How to get started:
Self-study
If you'd rather study a topic in full on your own, these are the frameworks I teach in seminars, written up in detail. Optional — every lesson above already includes drills drawn from them.
Generate more revs and axis rotation, safely, without losing control.
Build a no-thumb release you can repeat under pressure.
Balanced footwork built for the two-handed swing.
Choosing and laying out equipment that suits a high-rev game.
On the lanes
These are the angles I coach from — the approach, the swing, the release and the follow-through, on tour and in the pits. Tap any clip to watch. It's the same view I'll be looking at when I break down your game.
Clips are muted and loop. Tap or hover a clip to play — others pause automatically. Drag or scroll sideways for more.
Optional tier
If you're not ready for one-to-one lessons yet, the Collective is a lower-cost way in. You get a growing library of two-handed coaching videos, a monthly live group Q&A with me, and a private community of two-handed bowlers to train alongside. It's optional, and it's separate from the lessons above.
