Lisa Shaw profile
About Lisa

Note: most lessons will need to be booked a week out to ensure courts are available I'm a USTA 4.5 tennis player and a 4.0 PPR Certified Coach who has been playing pickleball for 5 years and teaching for the past three years. I've taught students who have never had a paddle in their hands, as well as students at the 3.5/4.0 pickleball level. I love teaching tennis players the differences in the game and the adjustments that need to be made.

What students say...

"Lisa is fantastic! I just wanted a few lessons to brush up on the fundamentals. Lisa quickly diagnosed exactly what I needed to focus on, and we made tremendous progress. Now I feel so much more confident on the pickleball court!

Coach Sylvia profile
About Coach

From the moment I first hit a pickleball in the driveway of friend’s home in Irvine, I was done for. I knew that Pickleball was going to be MY sport. It was not only the immense satisfaction of making solid contact with the ball that brought me joy, it was the sound it made when contact occured. The rush of adrenaline that washed over me each time I hit the ball was exhilarating. That same evening, I went on Amazon and ordered not one, but four pickleball paddles. I was determined to play, and play I did! I convinced everyone in my orbit to try it and when they did, they, too, fell in love. That’s why I’m here - to spread the love for pickleball; because the truth is, everyone deserves to be in love.

Francesco is an amazing coach. I’ve had unapproachable, strict coaches that ran their lessons with an iron fist. While they definitely made me a better player, I never walked away feeling good about myself and would leave liking the sport a little less. First things I noticed about Francesco was his friendly attitude, strong communication skills, and amazing hand-eye coordination. If you’re looking for a coach that you can talk to, knows how to teach, and has the skills to back it up, then Francesco should be your number one choice.

Lisa was an absolutely phenomenal pickleball coach! Went through all the beginning skills and really took the time to make sure we had fun and learned all the steps. Really enjoyed her energy and she came so prepared with multiple types of paddles to try! Would absolutely come again with more friends, I would trust her to make each lesson a wonderful time. 10/10 can’t say enough kind things!

Lisa is an awesome instructor with loads of knowledge. My partner and I are brand new to pickleball and not naturally gifted at hand-eye coordination sports, but Lisa was not deterred! Her enthusiasm is contagious. I have zero doubt our game improved and we will keep getting better with more lessons from Lisa.

We did the drills in the kitchen using half the court. The focus is on reacting quickly enough before we dive into individual technique. Francesco is a really energetic and knowledgeable coach. I like his philosophy of teaching and will definitely try another lesson!

I just wish I was told that my teacher could only teach this one lesson and is now done, since I bought a 3-pack.
