Kobe is a fantastic instructor. He’s so very knowledgeable about the game and so very very patient and direct in his methods. I’ll keep working with him as long as he’s still teaching!

We can’t say enough great things about our awesome pickleball coach, Kobe! Every session with him is not only fun and motivating but also incredibly personalized. Kobe takes the time to ask what we want to work on and then tailors the lesson to fit our goals—whether it’s perfecting a shot, improving footwork, or diving into game strategy. Thanks to his coaching, we’ve already seen real improvements in our game and feel more confident incorporating strategic plays into our matches. If you’re looking for a coach who truly cares about your growth and brings great energy to every lesson, Kobe is the one. Highly recommend! Barb and Deb

Kobe has been instrumental in my defensive success. I have a wrist injury that prevents me from being able to return one-handed volleys and counters. He tailored a two handed forehand for me which has been extremely effective for defending smashes and controlling my dinks. He teaches me to place my shots over speed-ups. Kobe really cares about me and understands my strengths and weaknesses. Along with that, he is so patient and encourages me when I am too critical of myself. I highly recommend him not only as a person but as a coach.

Coach Kobe has been fantastic! We’ve been working on my two-handed dinking and defense? and I’m very happy with the progress. I finally feel like I have real control over my dinks now. Kobe’s guidance, patience, and clear instruction made a huge difference. Highly recommend!

Kobe coached us during our 4.5 tournament to a silver medal. We were a few points shy of the championship. Kobe was able to identify our opponents’ weaknesses and helped us play to our strengths and place our shots more effectively.
