The lesson with Demario was quite helpful, especially since he emphasized practical strategies I can use right away. Though I still have some areas to improve, I think with more practice I’ll get even more confident. Honestly, it’s worth giving him a try if you’re looking to sharpen your pickleball skills.

Wow, Demario's lesson was quite a journey. I really appreciated how he emphasized all the different levels involved, balance, reflex, decision making. It's like playing chess with my body, and I love it. Still, I think I need some practice dropping shots precisely where they need to go to be ready for the next one coming at me. But honestly, I left feeling more aware of how all these pieces come together, and that's pretty helpful. I’d be glad to try Demario again to build on this understanding.

That lesson was quite helpful, especially with the communication and game knowledge from basics to strategy, though I think more practice would really solidify what I learned. Demario's approach feels steady and kind of natural, which makes it easier to stay engaged without feeling bogged down. If you're looking to improve your pickleball skills, it might be worth giving him a try.

What stood out to me was how Coach DaMario really listens and addresses the core issue, helping me overcome the yips with positive feedback. He provided a clear practice plan and great strategy tips, leaving me with a better mindset and feel for the game. His energy and enthusiasm make learning fun. I recommend his lessons to anyone wanting to improve their pickleball skills.

This lesson with Demario was quite helpful, especially since we did a variety of drills that really helped reinforce coordination and positioning. Though I think I'd benefit from even more drills to build muscle memory, I left feeling pretty confident about my progress and eager to practice what I learned. It’s a solid step forward, and Demario’s approach encourages steady improvement rather than rushing through techniques. If you’re looking to strengthen your fundamentals, I’d suggest giving his lessons a try.
Beginner training plan
Your first lessonRule Breakdown, Simulated Gameplay, Basic Gameplay Strategies, Basic Shot Mechanics, Basic Footwork
Lesson 11+More realistic gameplay, at this point I will likely insert myself into the drills at full speed and strength to give them practice with a pro.
Lesson 4-10More realistic gameplay, less focus on going over the basic rules of the game. Implementing strategies to overcome opponents with more consistency.
Lesson 2-3More strategy based teaching, will still go over the basics and ensure the rules of the game are understood. More simulated gameplay, transition to realistic gameplay.
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonStrategy based teaching. Evaluate where the clients are at, listen to their concerns about their game, see where I can help improve their game, focus on the aspects of their game they truly wish to improve on.
Lesson 11+Realistic gameplay, still give instruction where needed. Ensure client is set up well for the future.
Lesson 4-10Based on evaluation through weeks one through three, tailor drills to clients specific needs. Increase gameplay, insert myself into gameplay scenarios to increase difficulty.
Lesson 2-3Based on week one evaluation, design drills that cater to their specific needs. Realistic game play scenarios, break down strategy as each game plays out.
Youth players
Working with kidsEnsure the kids are having fun while still learning valuable lessons about the game of pickleball. Understand children can sometimes lose focus, remain patient to the ensure the kids and their parents are happy with the lesson.
Working with teenagersIntroduce them to the concepts of pickleball that lead to high quality gameplay. Treat them and teach them as adults, but also understand they may at times become disinterested, try to keep them focused and emphasize the importance of consistent training.
