My pickleball journey started two years ago, and I quickly fell in love with the sport. Now a certified instructor, I'm excited to share my knowledge and enthusiasm with others, whether you're a beginner or looking to take your game to the next level.
"Mike started by assessing my abilities through warm ups and drills, then focuses lessons based on my abilities. He's great at not only analyzing strengths and weaknesses, but providing feedback in a constructive manner. He's patient and knowledgeable, and after only one lesson, I learned enough skills and rules to play a game! The drills he takes me through resemble game play. I endorse Mike for any level player looking to learn and improve!
