I really appreciated how we practiced alternating long and short shots. It gave me a clearer sense of how to vary my play, and I think Iβll be able to apply that during matches. Though, Iβd like to keep practicing that technique a bit more to really make it second nature. Also, my serves are improving, and Iβd love some additional tips to refine them further. Allen's approach is quite steady, and Iβve already noticed some positive changes in my game. Still, I hope to keep building on this progress in future lessons.

βI took my first pickleball lesson with a friend, and it was our first time playing. Allen was fantastic at introducing us to the game. He made the lesson fun, engaging, and easy to follow. We had a great time and are already looking forward to our next session. Highly recommend Allen for anyone wanting to learn pickleball!β

I canβt say enough about him. My game has improved Soooo Much !!! Allen keeps drilling me over-and-over until I get it, then again next lesson. I love how my body is getting the muscle memory so I donβt have to think so much, just react.
I look forward to every lesson. I do a lesson twice a week now because I enjoy it so much

One thing that made the lesson great was the focused coaching on footwork and body positioning. Allen provided a thoughtful and intense session that helped sharpen skills on the court. If you want to improve your game with clear guidance and practical drills, this lesson is worth trying. The energy and attention to detail really stood out. π

Allen is a very nice guy, he has the knowledge and patience to guide you effectively. As a beginner, I already learned a lot for only attending his first class. Im looking forward to learning more in the following weeks.
