"I had my first pickleball lesson with Kibom Kim and it was a great experience. As a beginner, I wasn’t sure about the proper techniques, but he made everything easy to understand. He taught me how to grip the paddle correctly, proper stance and foot positioning, and worked with me on dinking, volleys, and drives. What stood out most was how patient and attentive he was throughout the lesson. He watched my form closely, pointed out small things I could adjust, and explained why those changes mattered. I could actually feel myself getting more comfortable and consistent as we practiced. The lesson was well organized, hands-on, and tailored to my skill level. If you’re new to pickleball or want to improve your fundamentals, I highly recommend Kibom Kim. He’s a knowledgeable coach who genuinely wants his students to get better. Looking forward to more lessons!
