Learn Pickleball with Roberto
•
•
My name is Roberto. I was born and raised in San José, Costa Rica, and I came to the United States eight years ago to play college tennis. I graduated from Azusa Pacific University (nation's top 10 NCAA Division II school) with a B.A. in Business Management and served as the team's captain on my last semester. I have also coached beginner and intermediate tennis players of all ages in Costa Rica as well as several collegiate dual matches. Regarding my playing history, I have played tournaments in over 10 countries, obtained a junior international ranking, and reached a ranking of #8 in Costa Rica. As of this year, I started coaching pickleball and the experience has been no different! Concepts are very similar and time to raise level is actually shorter!

I really enjoy my time with Roberto every time I step out on court with him. I usually work with him for an hour and he always makes me work up a sweat while making the sport fun as well. He is great for any skill level from beginner to advance and can focus on anything you may need like technique, footwork, strategy, or if you just want a nice workout. He has helped me in a lot of technique work that I needed as well as different strategy plays on different types of opponents. Roberto is so friendly on and off the court which makes it easy to receive coaching from him. I definitely recommend him to absolutely anyone who wants to learn how to play tennis and/or improve their skills.

Roberto has been the only instructor with the patience to help me bring my game back after many years inactivity. After a couple of months, I can finally hit consistently and my form has improved dramatically. I can't wait to start joining local tournaments and challenging myself again, with the confidence that he will be there to coach me.
Highly recommended!

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonI like to get to know the player better and know his or her goals. If you want to have fun and get a nice workout, I will focus on hitting, playing points, and doing fun drills that will for sure make you feel that you made the most out of the session. If you are a beginner and want to learn the basics, I can work in a very technical aspect and make sure you master the bases of each stroke before moving on to competition and strategies.
Lesson 11+The lessons moving forward will involve actual gameplay, strategic decision-making, more physical conditioning, and address any other goals the student wants to accomplish during this journey!
Lesson 4-10Here we start incorporating more physical conditioning. Footwork, covering more court space, etc.
Lesson 2-3Fundamentals are very important so these lessons will consist on developing a habit out of the right technique.
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonI like to get to know the player better and know his or her goals. If you want to have fun and get a nice workout, I will focus on hitting, playing points, and doing fun drills that will for sure make you feel that you made the most out of the session.
Lesson 11+Based on students’ goals, I will accommodate a game plan around those goals. Since fundamentals are mastered at this point, physical conditioning and drills will always be there.
Lesson 4-10More matchplay, and develop a good, competitive mentality that will help them in their competitions.
Lesson 2-3For more advanced players, I focus on tactics, mental strength, conditioning, and matchplay.
Youth players
Working with kidsFun is the key word. Kids get distracted easily so I will set fun goals that will make them focus for short amounts of time and simultaneously get better
Working with teenagersTeenagers start making more decisions by themselves so I want to tailor the lessons to their goals. Once I learn about their goals, we’ll work on drills and incentives that will help them get better and still have lots of fun!
