Actually, I find Jenny's lessons quite helpful, especially with the drills, which make a noticeable difference in my game. Though I still need to work on hitting low and harder without going out of bounds, I’m seeing steady progress. It’s reassuring that each lesson builds on the last, and Jenny’s approach is quite engaging. Still, I look forward to continuing and improving those specific shots, definitely worth trying out if you want consistent feedback.

Oh, Jenny's lesson really tackled all my ingrained bad habits, though I need to keep working on being more consistent. Still, I noticed some genuine improvements in my game just from that focus. If you’re looking for someone who pays attention to details and helps you correct what’s holding you back, she’s quite approachable for that. Wouldn’t mind trying another lesson with her and see how far I can go.

That was a pretty good lesson. Changing my grip a bit made a noticeable difference, especially with serving, and it really stuck with me. Though I didn’t have any specific suggestions, I’m actually hopeful about applying what I learned next time James helps me refine my game. If you're into improving your consistency on the court, I’d still consider giving James a shot.

What energized me was Jenny’s keen eye for how I made contact with the ball, allowing her to give specific tips for improvement. Her detailed observations really helped me understand what to focus on. I’d recommend her lessons to anyone looking to sharpen their pickleball skills and get thoughtful, precise guidance on the court. Give her coaching a try!

I loved the clear recap of key skills to improve like returning serves deeper, better forehand drives, and quick pace returns at the NVZ. James keeps the lessons focused and effective. If you want to sharpen your pickleball game with practical tips, his sessions are definitely worth trying. Great pace and solid advice throughout! 👌🎾
