Katherine Taylor is the real deal. I took 6 lessons from another instructor but I learned more in my first lesson with Katherine than the first 6 with someone else. I got constructive & repetitive instruction from her the whole 2 hrs because I needed and appreciated it. She's fantastic. I highly recommend her.

I've been taking pickleball lessons from Katherine for a while now and she is fantastic. She's patient and always has a positive attitude, which makes the lessons so much more fun. I've learned so much from her and my pickleball skills have improved so much. I highly recommend her as a coach!

Katherine is great to work with and offered many tips, along with having an assistant to help retrieve balls. She listens well, is patient, and wants you to succeed. I felt supported when I got frustrated, and will request her again when I'm back in town.

Your first lessonFirst we will focus on building a solid foundation with proper technique and mechanics. 1. Ball-ball hand eye coordination drills Before we pick up the paddle. we will play catch with the ball. Building muscle memory for low-high motion of the ball over the net. 2. Then we will learn ball-paddle and proper technique to dink the ball over the net. Keeping it low, front and forward over the net. This will give any beginner the confidence to now pick up the paddle and dink the ball over the net. 3. Proper paddle~ grip, position, pressure
