"Kibom was great!!! He gave such great explanations to everything. His instruction was clear and he gave examples that made me understand better. As much as I’ve learned pickleball already, he taught me the correct basics I need for a better foundation! He taught me correct stance, grip, and footwork. I’ve been trying to do topspin and he taught me what I need to know! I appreciate his patience with me. I would highly recommend him!!

As a Mexican American born and raised in Alhambra, California, I have deep roots in this vibrant community.

Fluent in both English and Spanish, I'm always ready to offer lessons, play a round, or practice at the range.

"Larry's lesson was quite engaging, especially with the added game with another couple. I appreciated how he makes the experience both fun and slightly challenging. Though I’m still aiming to improve my game skills, I noticed some good techniques that I can work on next time. Still, I think I’ll keep coming back to try and refine what I learn from him, there’s definitely room to grow, but the lessons are quite helpful.

"The lesson with Ranai was quite helpful, especially focusing on footwork, which really improved my control on the ball. Though I think a bit more instruction on footwork would make future lessons even more effective. Still, I feel like I learned useful techniques to incorporate into my training and can’t wait to build on them. If you're interested in sharpening your footwork, I’d say give Ranai a try.
