“I took my first pickleball lesson with a friend, and it was our first time playing. Allen was fantastic at introducing us to the game. He made the lesson fun, engaging, and easy to follow. We had a great time and are already looking forward to our next session. Highly recommend Allen for anyone wanting to learn pickleball!”

I can’t say enough about him. My game has improved Soooo Much !!! Allen keeps drilling me over-and-over until I get it, then again next lesson. I love how my body is getting the muscle memory so I don’t have to think so much, just react.
I look forward to every lesson. I do a lesson twice a week now because I enjoy it so much

I am an intermediate player aiming to take my game to the next level, and Allen has already made a noticeable impact after just one lesson. He’s excellent at refining my skills and offering helpful tips for small improvements. His coaching is full of enthusiasm, and he makes the lessons both engaging and enjoyable.

Allen is a very nice guy, he has the knowledge and patience to guide you effectively. As a beginner, I already learned a lot for only attending his first class. Im looking forward to learning more in the following weeks.
