About your pickleball coach
I'm a certified PPR pickleball instructor, fully insured, and a registered member of USA Pickleball. Sports have been my passion since day one, competing in various ball-related tournaments worldwide, consistently ranking in the top 10 of the 30-year-old division for an impressive 12 years. Alongside pickleball, I have a deep affection for boxing, racquetball, baseball, ping pong, and all things sports-related. With over two decades of coaching experience in softball, baseball, and soccer, I find joy in sharing invaluable insights that enhance performance and skill development. Lately, I've been thrilled to lend my expertise to numerous pickleball enthusiasts, eager to embark on this exhilarating, strategic, and highly social game, which demands precision in body motion, footwork, and technique.

The lesson pushed me to go further, which was a pretty helpful nudge. Jimmy did a good job introducing some more advanced techniques, though I still feel like I have a ways to go before I fully master them. Still, I appreciated the focus on real strategies and how he encouraged me to push my boundaries a bit. If you’re into gradually sharpening your pickleball skills, I think trying his lessons could be worth a shot.

That was a fun and encouraging lesson, and I think there's still room to improve. Jimmy’s approach feels quite balanced, and I appreciated how he kept things focused without feeling rushed. Still, I look forward to building on what I learned and refining my technique over time. If you're into pickleball and want a steady, approachable lesson, you might want to give Jimmy a try.

Jimmy's lesson really made a difference for me, especially how rules and tips clicked immediately , it wasn’t me, really, it was his clear explanations. Still, I don’t know enough about pickleball as a beginner, but I’m quite optimistic about improving. He’s a patient and caring teacher who also knows when to push hard, which I appreciated. If you’re starting out, I’d say give Jimmy a shot, especially if you want someone who can make the rules understandable and help you build confidence.

I really appreciate the consistent drilling and strategy we cover in lessons with Jimmy. It’s helped me spot opportunities better, and I think if I keep practicing, my control will improve even more. Still, I’m looking forward to more sessions to build that consistency further. If you're into developing your shot awareness, Jimmy’s definitely worth trying.
