Hello, I'm Phil. I'm straightforward and unafraid to be real. In pickleball, that means helping you shore up weaknesses and improve technically and strategically as easily and clearly as possible. I believe it's important to know "what" and "how", but also "why". My ideal is environment is one where we can learn something impactful and figure out how to implement it, all without unnecessary pressure.

"Honestly, I was pretty surprised by how much I picked up in just an hour. The instructor really knows his stuff. He taught me things I hadn’t considered before that I think will make a difference. Maybe more practice on those points would help, time went by so fast! Phil’s approach is quite helpful if you’re serious about improving your pickleball game. Phil is very knowledgeable and can make you improve your game, not only by how you hit the ball but how you position yourself and things you can tactically do to help you win the points. Recommend 10/10.
