"That lesson with Manny was pretty useful, especially in solidifying good habits and covering everything thoroughly. Though, I think I’ll need to keep practicing those areas to really get comfortable, but I’m feeling more confident overall. If you’re considering picking up pickleball, Manny’s approach is quite structured and calm, which helps a lot.
