"“I am the father of 5 year old triplet boys. I’ve taken them to the beach for years but I’ve never been successful in getting them into the water. When I signed up for Brett’s camp, which is five days a week, I was a little worried that they wouldn’t be up for all five days in a row. After the first day when I picked them up I was shocked to hear how much they loved it. They are very adventurous but often can get burned out on constant activity. They couldn’t wait to go back the next day and every day after that was the same. Brett slowly got them in the water more and more and eventually had them standing up surfing. They haven’t been this into an activity their whole lives. After a few days they were calling Brett, uncle Brett LOL.”

Originally from Germany, I discovered the joy of pickleball a few years ago and haven't looked back since. For me, pickleball isn't just a game—it's a vibrant community and a source of both physical fitness and camaraderie. I'm passionate about sharing this love for the sport with others, especially beginners, guiding them through the fundamentals from the rules of the game to mastering their first serves. If you're ready to take your game to the next level, I'm here to help, drawing from my experience playing in various tournaments, including singles, doubles, and skinny singles. Let's join together for some pickleball fun!
"Pickleball is fun because anyone can play, but no one plays exactly the same way. We set up this session as a couple. We wanted an experienced, certified pro to look at our form and our results, to help us improve. Daniela was great. We felt seen and heard. She explained and demonstrated things well, and we both feel the session was well worth our time and energy.
