"The lesson with Sharie offered solid practice drills and useful feedback on my skills, especially learning new serves, dinking, and slamming techniques. Though I’m out of town for a while, I’d be interested in more lessons when I get back, as the experience was quite helpful.

"The lesson was quite helpful, especially learning new techniques that I hadn’t focused on before, though I think there’s still room to refine some aspects. Mike’s teaching style felt practical and easy to follow, which made it easier to grasp the concepts. Still, I’m hopeful that with continued focus on these techniques, I’ll gradually see more improvement. If you’re interested in building a solid foundation, I’d suggest giving Mike a try.

I left with enough information and ideas on what I can work on during my own drilling sessions to help me move forward with this pickleball journey. He is patient, super knowledgeable, and gives great instant feedback.

Mike is a PPR certified Pickleball instructor focused on helping folks in the Folsom and Sacramento areas how to get into the game he loves. Mike has been teaching over a year now and has been playing for several more. He is a frequent tournament competitor as well.
"Mike's lesson really helped me understand how to hold my racquet better in certain situations and to attack the ball properly. Though I think I could still improve on my serve techniques, I feel more confident now, and the lessons really stuck with me. Still, I’m hopeful that with more practice, my serve will get sharper. Definitely worth trying if you want a measured, practical approach to pickleball.

Advanced players typically want help with specific tactics, shots or strokes. As a result, we will most likely spend our lesson focused on a single stroke or skill, reviewing footage, making corrections where applicable and discussing how specific footwork limits available shots and decision making. For advanced first lessons, we would want to heavily rely on video feedback, using both in-game scenarios and practice sessions.
