"David is a very patient coach. He was very clear when he explained the rules of pickleball. He was able to help each one of us but still pay attention to the other players. He was very encouraging which made us want to come back for more lessons. He provided easy exercises to do on our own. I would highly recommend him if you are thinking of taking up pickleball.

""My daughter wanted to learn music production, and I stumbled upon this class. Rickey has a fantastic way with teenagers – they made the lessons engaging by focusing on the type of music she loves. She brings her own laptop, and they've already started exploring Ableton, which is amazing. It's so inspiring to see her create her own beats and tracks. As a parent, I appreciate the positive and encouraging environment. It's been a wonderful creative outlet for her!
