"Hey, so honestly, Travon’s lesson was pretty good. The focus on one-on-one was exactly what I was aiming for, and I appreciated the stamina workout he gave me. Still, I’m hoping next time we can work a bit more on my defense, and maybe some footwork and shot combo drills. It’s encouraging to see consistent progress with trainers like him. Wouldn’t mind trying another lesson soon.

With two decades on the field as a player, a referee, and a coach, I cultivate confidence, self-awareness, and joy through soccer in players of all levels. This is a time to change things up and find out where your strengths shine and where they hold you back from challenging yourself. Progress over perfection, embracing failure to reach understanding, and introspection without judgement. This is a team sport and there are no weak links; only players that want to succeed, players that want to grow, and players that are content with their skill staying where it is.

I'm David, and after 30 years of playing 4.5 tennis, I discovered my passion for Pickleball and haven't looked back since. Now, I'm excited to share my expertise as a Certified PPR Coach and help beginners up to 4.0+ DUPR players improve their skills and understanding of this dynamic sport. Despite initial hesitation, I've come to love Pickleball even more than tennis and am eager to guide others in enjoying this game as much as I do. Let's work together and elevate your Pickleball game!
"The lesson with David was quite helpful, especially with his focus on specific techniques that I hadn’t fully grasped before. Though I still have some areas to refine, I left feeling more confident in my paddle control and positioning, which was pretty good. I’d consider signing up for another lesson to keep improving. But, we still have 4 more lessons, I think.
