I should have learned when I lived in England instead of California but I had access to squash courts and some friends who were really good at it. It was fun but a hassle to book courts, etc.
How to learn to play squash
How I did it: a good buddy who likes to revolve his business meetings around the court showed me all the angles and the rules and I just couldn't get my body to obey the spurts of jumping. Maybe my hamstring was torn from soccer.
Lessons & tips: jump more than run

squash is great fun, even though im not that good at it..
i dont get to play much anymore and i wish i could : (
Since a while ago I’ve knee problems, so I guess squash is one of the things I’ll have to give up in my life.
Today I played with A, and though I lost, the game has been cool :) I won a poit! :D It’s not much (compared to the other 4) but for me was great! In addition one game was very close, so with a little more it could have been 2-3 :)
Yesterday played with a friend, and enjoyed it because although I’m - still ;) - very bad at playing we finished in a tie.
Even if you are alone, you still can play Squash.. Oh, don’t worry about how to play, because it’s easier than you thought. Go with your willingness and the racket!!
It is a competitive, fun and very demanding sport – you have to be fit to play squash, not the other way around. It is a great cardio-vascular workout. 45 min hard and intensive game will expend about 700 calories, significantly greater amount than other sports, plus you don’t feel as tired as a gym workout because of the adrenaline and excitement which are involved in a competative sport.
I highly recommend trying it, at least.
I’ve been playing the game for about four months now, and I can already play at an intermediate level with the rest of the regulars at the club. That’s wonderful, and so much fun!
The next step is to get a better racquet and to take lessons, but I’ve yet to reach any sort of plateau in my game. Every time I go, I get better and better.
Zajtra sa chystám zahrať si po prvý krát v živote Squash. Kúpil som si k tomu nové adidasy s podrážkou, čo nezanecháva stopy na podlahe. Dúfam, že schudnem aspoň nejaký ten gram.
