I loved how Jay gave clear and distinct feedback on my performance, which really helped me improve. The observations were spot on and made the lesson effective and engaging. If you’re thinking about trying a pickleball lesson, Jay’s sessions are definitely worth it for anyone looking to sharpen their skills and enjoy the game more. Give it a go! 🙂

I had the pleasure of getting to know Jay through a recommendation and from day one I was hooked with Jay's unique skills and tips of the game. Jay makes the game fun and enjoyable. Identifying my strengths and weaknesses was one of the best realizations I had. Can't wait for everyone to try him out.
