"Kayden is an incredible pickleball coach. He has a very calm, grounded demeanor that immediately made me feel comfortable.

I left feeling more confident, supported, and excited to keep improving. I highly recommend Kayden to anyone looking for a great coach. It was a fantastic experience from start to finish.

"“I am the father of 5 year old triplet boys. I’ve taken them to the beach for years but I’ve never been successful in getting them into the water. When I signed up for Brett’s camp, which is five days a week, I was a little worried that they wouldn’t be up for all five days in a row. After the first day when I picked them up I was shocked to hear how much they loved it. They are very adventurous but often can get burned out on constant activity. They couldn’t wait to go back the next day and every day after that was the same. Brett slowly got them in the water more and more and eventually had them standing up surfing. They haven’t been this into an activity their whole lives. After a few days they were calling Brett, uncle Brett LOL.”

I've been golfing since the age of 12. I’ve faced many challenges in this sport and grown to overcome them.
