Wow, Jay’s lesson really showed some progress in just one session, especially with how he managed to help me improve quickly. He explained the rules better too, which was useful. Though I think some reinforcement of game terminology might help me remember things longer, still, it's encouraging to see the improvements so soon. If you're looking for a nuanced, straightforward approach, I’d suggest trying Jay out.

The lesson with Jay was quite helpful, especially since we’re beginners and needed guidance on basic shots. Though we still need to review scoring and practice more, I feel confident about what I learned and look forward to improving further. Taking lessons is a great way to build a foundation and get comfortable with pickleball. I would definitely recommend using Jay to help improve your game!
