The lesson with Katherine was quite helpful, especially in clarifying some strategic aspects of pickleball that I wasn't fully confident about before. Though I think more practice will really help me get comfortable with the techniques covered, I appreciated her calm way of explaining things. Honestly, her approach felt straightforward and tailored without being overly intense, which is nice. Still, I’m hopeful that with continued lessons, I’ll be able to solidify what we discussed and improve further. If you’re considering a lesson, Katherine’s method is worth trying out.

Really, I found Katherine's lesson to be quite good, actually. She covered the basics in a clear way and was pretty helpful overall. Still, I think a few more detailed drills could make the lesson even more effective, but I definitely left with a better understanding of some key techniques. If you're somewhat familiar with pickleball and want a straightforward, solid lesson, Katherine's a good choice.

That was a pretty useful lesson, especially since we concentrated on serving and understanding how a 2 on 2 game works along with the point system. Still, I think I could spend more time on my lob and overhead shots, and maybe get a clearer picture of the point system when playing with three players. Katherine’s approach helps to clarify game mechanics, which makes me hopeful about future lessons.

Katherine’s lesson was quite good. She’s a great instructor, and I left feeling like I gained some useful tips, especially on my positioning and paddle control. Though I still need more learning, I think further practice will help me feel more confident. Still, the lesson provided practical insights I can carry into open play, and I’d be open to trying another to keep that progress going.

I’d say Katherine’s lesson was quite good, actually. She explained techniques clearly and covered the basics in a straightforward way, which was helpful. Still, I think a few more detailed drills could have made the lesson even more effective, but I left with a better grasp of some key techniques. Still, I’d be open to trying another lesson with her to see how things develop.
