Darryl is incredibly patient, with a sense of humor and positive energy that's truly contagious. He makes learning feel comfortable and engaging, creating an atmosphere where I could really be myself. There’s no such thing as a “stupid question” with him—he treats everyone with genuine respect. Best of the best!

I was nervous to start playing pickleball, but once I was introduced to Darryl’s class I felt a lot more comfortable! I have never played a racquet sport so this was very new to me. I’m catching on pretty fast with Darryl’s lessons!

Darryl most certainly got me addicted to this game. He even recommended paddles that benefited my playstyle. He really improved my cross-court dinking game. Highly recommend!

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonDeveloping a proper student/coaching relationship is vital. Prior to our first lesson, the student will complete a short student questionnaire in order for me to understand the background and learning style of the student. The student will also begin to develop their purpose and goals as they invest in their pickleball game.
Our first lesson would be an assessment of student's current knowledge of the game and overall pickleball fitness level. Based on observation of the student, we'll begin to develop fundamental pickleball habits that will carry on to future sessions. We will begin our pickleball to paddle journey with proper grip and dinks.
Lesson 11+Lessons 11+ will go into more advanced skills and strategies on the pickleball court while reinforcing the skills learned from previous lessons. Depending on student progression, we'll look at speed ups, stroke mechanics (top spin/slice) counters, ernes, and partner synergy. By this point, we hope to get you registered in your first tournament.
