"I scheduled classes for my kids and they loved the lessons. Meredith used games and drills to help them learn the game.
I run six pickleball sessions a week for my local church to raise money, combining my love for the game with a commitment to community service. My journey with paddle sports began as a kid, but it was in 2015, introduced to pickleball by my dad, that I truly found my passion.

Pickleball has a unique way of building connections and fostering a supportive community, and I strive to share that experience with others. Whether you're a newcomer or looking to improve your skills, I'm here to help you enjoy the game and be part of the amazing pickleball community.

"George's lesson was quite helpful. I appreciated the specific instruction and feedback he provided. Though I still need more practice serving and moving up to the net, I feel like I'm making steady progress. If you're looking to refine your technique, you might consider focusing on those areas as well. Still, I think trying a lesson with George could be worthwhile if you're aiming to improve your game.
