The lesson with James was quite helpful, especially focusing on position practice which really made a difference. I feel more confident moving around the court. I’m encouraged to keep practicing and see where it leads. If you're looking for a measured yet effective lesson, James is worth trying out!

This coach makes it fun and had me laughing, which eased up my nervousness and we put a lot of good work in. Appreciate it James and look forward to next time. I wanted to leave a review because James helped me when I did not even really think I needed a coach, but he was recommended. Attend to play a fast hard game having been a tennis player and other racket sports. He explained the philosophy of adding in a better soft game using more dinks and drop shots and demonstrated how it could help me with the way I play. I can see perfecting it is harder than it looks… but it’s already making a difference in my play. He stress that there is no magic pill or one size fits all strategy and it depends on a variety of factors. Which seems like common sense now, but I’m hardheaded And had hit a wall that I could not seem to breakthrough or get better. He helped me mentally I guess as much as anything..
What I can bringExtra paddles to borrow or for sale. Extra balls, and a ball return machine as applicable.
