Greg is a really skilled pickleball player and clearly enjoys teaching. His patience and knowledge made the lesson quite helpful. Though I'm still working on my skills, I felt the focus on technique was practical and easy to follow, and his enjoyment definitely encouraged me to keep practicing. Hope to see more progress in future lessons with him.

Beginner training plan

Your first lesson

Pickleball with Gregory J.⭑ 5.0 (8 reviews)

How it works

I take things slow and see what their strengths and weaknesses are and build from there

Lesson 11+Will be building and continuing progression and really hitting that home, and adding new steps to further that and make it as consistent as possible

Lesson 4-10Once we've established certain things I'll start making it a routine to keep your consistency going and keeping those steps and things you've learned in your arsenal and every day play

Lesson 2-3Continuation from the 1st lesson, furthering your progression and adding steps to help you keep that going

Advanced training plan

Your first lessonThis all depends on the player, I'll start off with some dinki drills and hitting around to gauge where the player is at and then work on things I see that need attention

Lesson 4-10Staying with the foundation while adding shots and ball placement to your arsenal

Lesson 2-3Hammering home key points from lesson 1 and pressing your game with those points

Youth players

Working with teenagersIt depends on the skill level, for beginners I start slow and work on fundamentals, for more advanced I work on set skills or shots and progress from there

What you need to bringAll you need is a paddle and something to keep you hydrated

What I can bringI have a few extra paddles , although I suggest you bring your own that way you have something you like and are used to playing with, and I have plenty of balls
