What students say...

"The lesson was quite helpful in highlighting some specific footwork issues I hadn't noticed before, though I think a bit more focus on shot consistency could be beneficial. Craig's approach feels steady and realistic, which I appreciate. Still, I’m hopeful that future lessons might cover more about controlling placement, looking forward to trying another session with him.

Oh, so the lesson focused on playing half court singles, and honestly, it was quite helpful. Craig explained some strategic positioning that I hadn’t really thought about before, and I feel more confident about shot placement now. Though I still need to work on my court awareness, I’m optimistic about applying what I learned next time. If you’re interested in improving specific aspects of your pickleball, it might be worth trying a lesson with him.

I really enjoyed learning how to improve my net play during the lesson with Craig. His guidance helped me feel more confident and skilled around the net. If you want to sharpen your pickleball game, I recommend trying his lessons. They provide clear insights and practical skills that can really make a difference on the court. Give it a go! 😊

Excellent coach. It was my first time at pickle ball court and he worked with me to understand the game, improve my skills and things to improve my game. I look forward to our next lesson.
