I am highly recommending Chris as a Pickleball Pro. His practical approach to teaching beginners works. He had me playing games from the start after covering the basics. Just as you canβt learn to swim without getting in The water,β the same holds true with Chris as a teacher. I have years of tennis experience and he has helped me adopt a different racquet game while leveraging past mind and muscle memory. As a beginner, my improvement was so obvious to my group that they asked how I did it. My answer was Chris! Iβd recommend him to anyone.

Chris, was an outstanding pickle ball instructor . We had a group take lessons with Chris and now just after a few lessons we feel we can play, we know the rules, we know strategy and we can win a few games. Most importantly we had fun in a non intimidating environment. Thank you Chris ! I saw him teach people who knew how to play and he was just as helpful and talented.
