What stood out most was the great drills to sharpen skills and the ample time spent playing doubles with coaching throughout. Amit’s guidance really kept the lessons engaging and practical. If you’re looking to improve your game, these sessions are definitely worth trying out!

Oh, I think the lesson with Amit was quite helpful. He really paid attention to my weaker areas and explained some tactics I hadn’t considered before, though I still need to work on my return shots. Still, I feel more confident now and I’d consider trying another lesson, especially since he has that way of making the technical stuff easy to grasp.

Amit’s approach really helped us all get comfortable with the basics quickly, and I think that’s what stood out. We made good progress and learned the rules in minutes, which was pretty helpful. Though, I’m looking forward to honing our skills further and getting some real-time corrections to improve our game form. If you’re after an instructor who can set a solid foundation and boost your confidence, Amit’s definitely worth a shot.

Playing with Amit was quite a good experience, especially as I enjoyed learning new strategies during the lesson. Though I still want to hone my skills further, I appreciated the focus on playing effectively as a partner. Still, continuing to develop those tactics should make a real difference. If you're interested in fine-tuning your game, Amit might be worth considering.

Bright, patient instruction kept me moving confidently through each drill. Amit has lots of patience and will really listen to your needs. I definitely improved my backhand after my 1st lesson. I also appreciate that we play against other doubles partners as a team. This is towards the end of our lesson. Good for pulling everything together. Book him!

Amit was great. He helped me with what I needed, even though I had been out for a while and need a lot of help. Some extra help with soft shots and moving better will still be useful. I loved playing a game at the end. If you’re into improving your pickleball skills, I’d suggest giving Amit a shot.
