"Anneke's lesson was quite positive, especially with her being so encouraging when I made progress, which felt pretty motivating. Still, improving footwork is an area I hope will get more focus next time. Anyway, I think trying Anneke could be worthwhile if you're looking for a supportive instructor who helps you stay motivated.
With 14 years of experience learning pickleball from its roots on Bainbridge Island, the birthplace of the sport, I bring a deep understanding of its history and evolution. My journey in pickleball began where the game was invented, allowing me to gain invaluable insights into its foundational strategies and techniques. In addition to my extensive background, I have honed my skills by competing at a collegiate level, where I developed a strong foundation in both individual and team dynamics. As a coach, I am passionate about sharing my knowledge and helping players of all levels improve their game with personalized, effective instruction.
