Honestly, I really appreciated how Gianmarco focused on specific pickleball strategies during the lesson, which helped me better understand shot placement and movement. Still, I think I could use a bit more work on my dink but I’m hopeful the next lesson will clarify that. If you’re into pickleball and want to improve, I’d say it’s worth giving him a try.
