"James has a strong passion and dedication in teaching me in tennis and pickleball. Anytime I call him to play he will not hesitate to accommodate me and help me improve my backhand stroke and adding some pointers to also improve my serve which is my weakest stroke in tennis.

Dinking and the soft game
