"As a complete beginner with no sports background, I had a great experience learning pickleball with Coach Jawad. He is friendly, patient, knowledgeable, and supportive. He quickly identifies my technical issues and helps correct them before they become my habits. For example, he helped me improve my elbow and wrist positioning during my swing. His explanations are clear and easy to understand, and I learned a lot in a short time. The lessons were clear, helpful, and fun, and they made me enjoy pickleball. I truly appreciate his teaching and highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their pickleball skills.
