What some pickleball students say:
"I was a nervous beginner! Tony is patient and taught me the basics of both the movements and the game. I was able to begin playing after my first lesson. With each lesson I can apply what I learned and I'm getting better"
- Raphael G.
"I was stuck! I knew the game but was not happy with my performance. Tony observed my strengths and weaknesses and helped my understand how to build my skills and apply better strategy. Tony helped me see I was being lazy and not focusing on improving my weaknesses"
- Kevin H.
"I now have a two handed backhand. Thank you Tony, you are the only one I've worked with that helped me achieve my goal to be a better banger."
