In August of 2021, Leonard embarked on a quest to elevate his pickleball skills, actively seeking a place to learn and play. It was during this journey that he crossed paths with Damon, a gentleman who extended an invitation to a community center predominantly frequented by players aged 50 and above. Initially feeling out of place, Leonard was warmly embraced by the community and taught the game that now ignites his passion. Today, almost two years later, Leonard aspires to give back by sharing his knowledge, eager to teach newcomers and enable them to experience the joy of one of the world's fastest-growing sports.
"Leonard is fantastic coaching our group of 4 beginners. He’s super informative, patient, encouraging and, more importantly, fun! He definitely deserves his 5 star reviews. We highly recommend him and look forward to more lessons with him in the near future.

My tennis journey began in high school and has never ended. My college courses were intense and became my focus away from sports. During summer breaks I took time to learn more sports including soccer and basketball while maintaining my tennis skills. The past few years have been interesting as I have picked up a tennis routine again in the midst of covid and would like to share my passion for tennis.
"Wonderful coach with a full set of equipment from fresh strings and new balls and also provides water and energy drinks. Energetic style of coaching that keeps me engaged and on my feet running for more.

I teach all levels of baseball. I played division 1 baseball as well as being an elite hitter throughout my entire life. Injury ended my career and my pursuit now is to teach others how to become an elite baseball player and achieve their goals and dreams. I focus mainly on hitting and fielding and the correct ways to play those positions.

"Martin, I just wanted to say thank you for the outstanding training sessions with Evelyn and Teddy this summer. Your ability to push them outside of their comfort zones while continuing to build their confidence is something I really appreciate. I love how intentional you are about having them use both feet and not letting them take the easy way out. Even more than that, you stay patient and keep working with them until the movement becomes muscle memory instead of something they have to think through every time. Great coaches don’t just teach skills, they build confidence, discipline, and belief. You’re exceptional at your craft, and it’s obvious how much you care about helping kids reach their potential. Thanks for investing in Evelyn and Teddy and helping them become better players every session. We appreciate you!

"Our 10 year old son has been working with coach Eddie for three months and we have seen huge improvements in our son’s skill level and attitude towards practice. Eddie comes prepared to every session with well thought out drills and lessons. He has clearly thought through a variety of ways to teach each skill and given thought to progression over time. He is patient, kind, and hard working. Our son is excelling and has a more focused (but also fun) outlook on practice. He has been very open of our feedback and input on things we want to see in lessons and is a great collaborator. He has also been very flexible when we have needed to cancel or move a lesson over the summer when our schedules have been more fluid. We would highly recommend Eddie to anyone with kids looking to grow as basketball players.
