He was extemely knowledgeable, patient, encouraging, and explained the rules & technique in a way that was easy for beginners to understand. By the end of the lesson we were all feeling much more confident. If you’re new to pickleball or just want to improve your game, I highly recommend Coach Curtis. You won’t be disappointed!

"I recently completed a pickleball lesson with Coach Jessee and was impressed by his ability to adapt the training approach to my specific needs and skill level. He took time to assess my current abilities and playing style before designing a personalized training plan with clear explanations and practical drills that directly addressed the techniques I needed to work on. Throughout the lesson, Jessee provided specific, constructive feedback rather than general advice, and balanced challenge with encouragement in a way that felt genuinely customized to my goals. I would recommend this coach for players looking for personalized coaching that takes into account their individual strengths and development areas.
Jessee
I bring 19 years of experience playing and learning the game of golf, with a background as a college-level athlete and collegiate golf team player, and extensive competitive experience. During high school, my team qualified for the state championships, and during that same period I competed in high-level matches, including a head-to-head match against Sam Horsfield, giving me early exposure to elite competition and pressure situations. While I have a strong understanding of the technical side of the golf swing, my teaching approach is not overly technical. I’m a feel-based player, and just like I play the game, I teach it—focusing on feel, awareness, and simple keys that translate naturally to the course. I believe great golf comes from understanding what to feel, not being overloaded with mechanics. A major part of my instruction focuses on the mental side of the game, which I believe is often overlooked. I’ve studied golf psychology extensively, including Bob Rotella’s golf psychology work, and I help students develop confidence, commitment, and trust under pressure. I’ve worked with golfers of all skill levels, helping students improve ball-striking, consistency, confidence, and course management. Every lesson is tailored to the individual, emphasizing changes that are easy to understand, repeat, and hold up on the course. My goal is simple: help you play better golf on the course, not just hit good shots on the range. If you’re serious about improving and want coaching that blends experience, feel-based instruction, and a strong mental approach, I’d love to work with you.
