"The lesson was pretty good, I felt like I made some decent progress with my volley approach though I think I could use more work on my serve. Zoe's guidance was quite helpful, and I appreciated the focus on specific pickleball techniques. Still, I’m hopeful for more targeted tips in future lessons so I can really tighten up my game. If you're looking to improve your skills gradually, Zoe's worth trying out.

I started playing pickleball four years ago, and it has kept me both physically active and mentally challenged. This fueled my desire to compete with more skilled players, learning different spins and lobs. As a mom of seven, I enjoy playing pickleball with my children, proving that it's a sport for all ages. Pickleball has become a wonderful way for us to stay active and have fun together.
"Showed up early and very targeted feedback. Helped me improve my serve and gave me beginner friendly basics to remember and practice.

"The lesson with Shaun was quite helpful, especially in terms of providing a great overall experience. Though I think better control during practice would really help solidify skills, I appreciated the laid-back approach that made learning accessible. If improvements are made on control, I’d feel even more confident moving forward. Still, I’d encourage others to give Shaun a try if they’re looking to get a steady start with pickleball lessons.
