"The lesson was quite good, especially getting a chance to work on my serve and game play. Though I’d like to see more of the same focus, it felt quite practical and helpful overall. Paul’s approach feels measured and straightforward, which is just right for where I’m at. If you’re looking to improve specific aspects like serving or gameplay, I’d say give him a try.

I'm quite pleased with how the lesson went. Paul really focused on helping me understand being in it to win it. The lesson highlighted the importance of mindset and positioning, which was quite helpful, and I left feeling more confident about my game. Still, I’m hopeful the next lesson will build on that and include some tips on shot consistency. If you're interested in improving your pickleball skills without feeling overwhelmed, you might find trying a lesson with Paul worth your while.

highly recommend paul! we had a group of 3 people and took 3 beginners classes with paul. he is very knowledgeable, has a great personality/vibe, is very patient, and generous with his time! he made it a very fun experience and we learned a lot about technique and he gave many playing tips tailored to each of us. if you’re also a beginner, i recommend 3 lessons with paul to learn the basics and build up your skills each session.

Oh, I’d say the lesson with Paul was quite helpful. We worked on handling different game situations through playing out points, which gave me some useful insights into strategy. Still, I think I could benefit from further skill refinement, but I’m optimistic about more improvements. If you're looking to sharpen your pickleball skills, especially in dynamic game contexts, Paul’s approach might be worth trying out.

Leslie is a very competent, experienced and talented coach. She’s patient, paces the lesson well and provides detailed instructions and feedback. I like the fact that she understands body mechanics and the physics of how the ball and use of the paddle interact. Every lesson I learn something new and feel like I’m improving. Best of all, I’m having fun.

The lesson with Paul was quite helpful, especially working on playing out points, which definitely added to my understanding. Though I’d like to see more of that and some strategy mixed in, it’s a good foundation to build on. Still, I feel like I’m getting more confident on the court. If you’re into improving specific skills, give Paul a try.

The lesson was pretty good. Paul was quite patient, and I appreciated how we focused on the basics, which is exactly what I needed. Still, I think working on receiving serve and midrange balls would help me improve even more. If you’re looking for a steady approach to foundational skills, I’d suggest giving Paul a try.
