"My husband and I had a great lesson with Russ! We are long-time tennis players and he had lots of good tips on how to transition to pickleball. He also has a wicked serve!! We are already looking forward to our next lesson!

"The lesson was quite good, especially putting the things I learn into practice. Coach's focus helped me feel more comfortable moving around the court and I think I’m quite a bit more confident now. Though I still aim to improve further, I’ll keep working on my game because this lesson was a helpful step. If you’re considering trying Coach, I’d say it’s worth a shot.

"I have had a few lessons with Thomas and I have made great improvements in my game.. He has unique way of teaching that will help you enjoy your lessons. If you are thinking about learning to play pickelball i highly recommend giving Thomas a try.
I have been teaching people to play pickleball for over three years and love the excitement and fun of new players. I find tennis players and racquetball players and other paddle sports players quickly grasp the rules and need just a little coaching in strategies and shots to quickly become intermediate players. people without a sports background need more in-depth personalized coaching, which is my forte. I love helping people discover their inner jock for the first time and love how much fun even the most basic player has in pickleball. my lessons emphasize the fun while helping learn the basics.
"The lesson with Mesa was quite insightful, especially in focusing on fundamental techniques. Though I still need to work on my shot consistency, I’m feeling more confident about improving and might try another lesson soon.
With two years immersed in the world of pickleball instruction, I cultivate a fun and professional learning environment. As an experienced player, I offer tailored guidance to elevate your game and achieve your personal best on the court. Let's improve your pickleball game!
