Mary Sue worked with me and we changed my two handed backhand into a single handed backhand. My return forehand/backhand using her training skills increased dramatically! Further practicing and lessons will refine my play - I should have done this a lot sooner.

Mary’s coaching style is easy to follow and helpful. I really appreciated her clear explanations on serving, returning, and ball placement. After just one lesson, I felt like I picked up some valuable skills that improved my game. If you want to get a solid introduction to pickleball fundamentals, her lessons are definitely worth trying.

Thank you! You’re very patient and professional. Your teaching methods started with basics and allowed my friend to learn at a pace more appropriate for her. We look forward to learning more and playing together!

I’m an average pickleball player with skills that need help. Mary Sue spends time with me on drills to improve my game so I can better compete with my friends on the court. She is a positive and knowledgeable coach. I feel good about the progress I have made with her help.

Lesson 2-3Next, we will build on your skills and refine your forehand back in stroke, then will focus on some serving. I will introduce you also to positioning and basic footwork to get your game going.

Youth players

Working with kidsWhen teaching the kids, I make sure my lessons are fun and engaging. I use games and activities to make learning and enjoyable. Patients and encouragement are the key to successful lesson. I will make sure the kids have fun and are excited to come back to play.

Working with teenagersWhen working with teenagers I use my adult practice lessons and scale it down to help them understand and achieve all the right skills so they have fun and playing and can come out with their other peers to compete on the court.
