"Coming from a competitive background in combat sports ,pickleball has become my new passion. I recently started competing again and I needed that some one to help me get to the next level. After my time playing with Coach Manny, he has picked my game apart and helped me understand what is useful and disregard what is not. After today’s lesson I feel not just 1% better but I have a complete better understanding of pickleball and the drills have exploited my weakness and turned them into improving strengths. Thanks Coach Manny! Ig @ pickleNINJA_
