Paul’s approach feels measured and straightforward, which is just right for where I’m at. If you’re looking to improve specific aspects like serving or gameplay, I’d say give him a try.

"I’d say the lesson with Mayra was quite helpful. She explained the fundamental rules pretty clearly and offered good feedback on my serve, though I still need to work on my positioning. Still, I appreciated her focus on basic strategies, which made me more confident about playing with others. If you're looking to get started or brush up on the fundamentals, you might want to give Mayra a try.

I'm quite pleased with how the lesson went. Paul really focused on helping me understand being in it to win it. The lesson highlighted the importance of mindset and positioning, which was quite helpful, and I left feeling more confident about my game. Still, I’m hopeful the next lesson will build on that and include some tips on shot consistency. If you're interested in improving your pickleball skills without feeling overwhelmed, you might find trying a lesson with Paul worth your while.

highly recommend paul! we had a group of 3 people and took 3 beginners classes with paul. he is very knowledgeable, has a great personality/vibe, is very patient, and generous with his time! he made it a very fun experience and we learned a lot about technique and he gave many playing tips tailored to each of us. if you’re also a beginner, i recommend 3 lessons with paul to learn the basics and build up your skills each session.

Oh, I’d say the lesson with Paul was quite helpful. We worked on handling different game situations through playing out points, which gave me some useful insights into strategy. Still, I think I could benefit from further skill refinement, but I’m optimistic about more improvements. If you're looking to sharpen your pickleball skills, especially in dynamic game contexts, Paul’s approach might be worth trying out.

Starting strong, Mayra was on time, kind, and full of tips that transformed my serve into a solid, repeatable weapon, with extra net-play insights to boot. Lesson highlights sparked visible progress, and the backyard court with its view added a welcome calm to learning. A brief moment of reflection after, wow. I’m excited to keep sharpening and build confidence across my game.

Mayra is a wonderful coach! We hired her for an initial lesson for my wife and I and we’re not disappointed. She can teach and help people become better at different levels/experience with pickle ball - I am a beginner to intermediate player while my wife is a true beginner. We were both having fun throughout the entire lesson and learned a lot. Thank you Mayra!

The lesson with Paul was quite helpful, especially working on playing out points, which definitely added to my understanding. Though I’d like to see more of that and some strategy mixed in, it’s a good foundation to build on. Still, I feel like I’m getting more confident on the court. If you’re into improving specific skills, give Paul a try.

The lesson was pretty good. Paul was quite patient, and I appreciated how we focused on the basics, which is exactly what I needed. Still, I think working on receiving serve and midrange balls would help me improve even more. If you’re looking for a steady approach to foundational skills, I’d suggest giving Paul a try.
