"The lesson with Carlos was quite helpful. I appreciated how the focus on footwork and shot consistency made a real difference for my game. Still, I think there's room for more drills that target my specific weaknesses, so I’m hoping future lessons will cover that. Honestly, it’s quite encouraging to have a coach who naturally understands the subtleties of pickleball and can point out areas for improvement without overloading me. If you’re looking for a thoughtful, measured approach, it might be worth giving Carlos a try.

"I was pretty impressed with the lesson, especially since Laura gave some really clear information and instructions. Still, I think it’d be good to have more of the same kind of guidance in future lessons. Overall, it was a worthwhile experience, and I feel like I got a decent handle on some of the basics without overdoing it. If you're looking to improve your pickleball skills, maybe give Laura a try and see if her approach works for you.

My pickle ball experience has many stages from beginning to advanced play, culminating in an Open Doubles championship in Bakersfield in 2019-20!!

"James has a strong passion and dedication in teaching me in tennis and pickleball. Anytime I call him to play he will not hesitate to accommodate me and help me improve my backhand stroke and adding some pointers to also improve my serve which is my weakest stroke in tennis.
