Jason Berry profile
About Jason

Hi, I’m Coach Jason, a dedicated pickleball coach with 3 years of experience helping players of all levels improve their game, from beginners to competitive 4.0 players looking to sharpen their skills, strategy, and consistency. My coaching focuses on building a strong foundation that includes footwork, stroke mechanics, shot selection, court positioning and recognizing patterns. Encouragement is a big part of my coaching style. I believe players improve faster when they feel supported.

What students say...

"I came to Jason with 3 years experience playing pickleball already so I wasn't sure how much a few coaching sessions could offer me at this stage. I was pleasantly surprised. Jason has a sharp eye for the finer details of the game, and he quickly identified habits in my technique that I didn't even know were holding me back. His feedback is specific, constructive, and easy to apply — I saw a noticeable improvement in my consistency and court positioning within just a few sessions. What I appreciated most was that he challenged me without ever making the sessions feel overwhelming. If you think you've outgrown beginner coaching, I'd encourage you to give Jason a chance — he absolutely has something to offer at every level.

I had a wonderful first lesson with Nick! From the very beginning, his communication was kind, clear, and professional. Before our session, he sent helpful information about what to expect, along with tutorial videos to prepare me in advance. When we met, Nick was incredibly welcoming and came fully prepared with pickleball equipment and plenty of balls for practice. Throughout the lesson, he consistently gave me constructive feedback and really showed his expertise and command of the pickleball court. The entire experience was fun, engaging, and motivating. Nick taught me essential techniques, explained the basic rules, and gave me useful tips on how to stay consistent with my practice. We even spent a good amount of time free playing, which was a great way to reinforce everything I’d learned. After the lesson, he followed up with a detailed summary and encouraged me to continue with the sport — which I absolutely will. I couldn’t have asked for a better introduction to pickleball. Thank you, Nick!

I just had my first Pickleball lesson with Nick, and it was an amazing experience! Nick is a fantastic instructor – knowledgeable, patient, and full of positive energy. He took the time to explain the rules, techniques, and strategies in a way that was easy to understand for a beginner like me. What stood out most was how encouraging and engaging Nick was throughout the lesson. He provided personalized tips to improve my grip, stance, and swing, and I noticed progress in just one lesson. The balance between instruction and actual play, made the lesson in both educational and fun. Nick’s passion for Pickleball is contagious, and his enthusiasm made me feel confident and excited to keep learning. I can’t wait to book my next lesson and continue developing my skills. I highly recommend Nick to anyone looking to learn or improve their game!

I highly recommend Nick as a Pickleball coach. In six lessons, he took me from a beginner to an intermediate player with noticeable improvements in my game. Thanks to his structured approach and a variety of drills, my drop shots and drives are more accurate, my back hand and serve have improved significantly, and I’ve developed better top spin control on difficult shots. Nick also helped refine my diagonal dink shots which has made a big difference in my overall strategy and confidence on the court. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, patient, and effective coach, Nick is the right choice.

Oh, I think Steve’s lesson on balancing consistency and control really hit the mark. He’s quite good at pointing out specific adjustments, though I’d say more action on court could help me see how I play and get immediate corrections. Still, I feel like I gained a clearer sense of rhythm, and the focus on control was quite helpful for steadying my game. It’s encouraging to keep practicing with these insights. If you’re looking to fine-tune your technique in a thoughtful way, I’d suggest giving Steve a try.

I'm pretty happy with the lesson with Steve, especially since he was really focused on my weaknesses so I could improve, which was helpful. Though, I guess I probably need to experience the same lesson again to really lock in what I learned. Still, I feel more confident about my pickleball skills and think that focus on my development could make a difference. If you’re looking for someone who really pays attention to detail, Steve might be worth trying out.

Hey, so I took a lesson with Steve and, honestly, I’d say it was quite good. He really broke down some key techniques that I’d been struggling with and had a pretty relaxed way of explaining things. Though, I do think a little more focus on footwork would help me improve faster. Still, I feel more confident about my shots now and I might go back for another lesson soon. If you're into working steadily on your game, it’s worth checking out Steve.

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 5•Verified ✓
The coach was very nice and easy to work with. Came with all the necessary equipment to help guide me. Helped take videos so I could see for myself the issues with my form. Unfortunately, the location had a small hiccup with too many players and a small part of the lesson took part outside of a pickleball court. Other than that, the lesson itself was sufficient enough for me to start working on some of my bad habits.

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 5•Verified ✓
Oh, I think Steve's lesson offered some pretty useful advice and techniques that really come into play during actual game situations. Though, I do wonder if a more advanced training approach might help me sharpen certain skills further. Still, it's encouraging to see how tailored instruction can boost confidence on the court. If you're looking to improve, Steve's worth considering for your pickleball lessons.

Oh, definitely worth trying out with Nick. The lesson covered some interesting new strategies to hit the ball and improve court movement, which I found quite helpful. Though I still aim for consistency, I think building on what we worked on could really pay off. Still, it’s encouraging to see progress and get specific tips. If you’re into refining your game steadily, you might find it worth your while.

The lesson really helped me focus on my form and stay consistent, which is pretty helpful. Honestly, I’m still working on all those areas, but I appreciated the clear emphasis on skill development.
