Had my first lesson with Chuck and left excited to schedule the next. Chuck arrived early to our lesson and was waiting and ready when I arrived. Because the courts are outdoors, our originally scheduled day had to be rescheduled due to extreme wind. Chuck was understanding in accommodating the schedule change and promptly responded to my request by offering another day and time. As an instructor, I found him to be patient, insightful and supportive providing me with guidance and tips on how to improve my game. He was encouraging yet constructive in his feedback. Im looking forward to my next lesson.
Though there's quite a bit to digest from the lesson, I found Chuck's focus on serving, paddle hold, and movement quite helpful. The lesson worked well for me, especially in understanding stance and point counting. Still, I know I need to follow through more diligently. Anyway, I’d say his coaching is steady and practical, and I’ll definitely try to build on what I learned. If you're after a well-structured lesson that covers the fundamentals, Chuck’s worth considering.
Chuck is an excellent coach. My husband and I had never played Pickleball so we needed to learn the basics. Chuck was patient and attentive to our progress. He praised what we did correctly, gave us instructions to improve our serving, dinking, and volleying skills, and clearly explained the rules of play. We feel we have a good foundation to move along with practicing on our own. We recommend Chuck for probably any playing level as he does play competitively.
