Peter has completely transformed my approach to pickleball by emphasizing the mental aspect of the game. He teaches not just how to play, but how to think and strategize on the court. His sessions often include mindfulness exercises and mental techniques to stay focused, calm, and decisive, even under pressure. I’ve learned how to anticipate my opponents' moves and maintain a competitive yet balanced mindset, which has made a tremendous difference in my performance. His holistic approach to developing a winning mindset is a game-changer for any serious pickleball player.
