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.

I found the lesson on dinking purposefully quite helpful, especially as someone still working on control at the net. Though I wasn't expecting such a focus, it really clarified how intentional dinking can set up the whole point. Kal's approach made me think differently about those softer shots, and I left with some practical ideas to try next time I play. Still, I hope to get more comfortable with the rhythm, but I’ll definitely stay optimistic about improving my finesse on those shot placements. If you're into refining your pickleball strategy, it’s worth giving Kal a shot.

The lesson was quite useful in reinforcing the fundamentals from previous lessons, which made me really realize I need to trust the process and techniques more, though I still see room for improvement. Kal's approach helped reinforce core skills, and I appreciated that, but I think I’d benefit from continued practice to really internalize what we worked on. Still, I’m hopeful that with some repetition, I’ll get more comfortable applying these techniques during play. If you're looking for a coach who emphasizes fundamentals, you might want to give Kal a try.

My lesson with Kal was great! I always walk away with new pointers to work on! I appreciated how he explains everything clearly, making complex ideas easier to grasp. Though I still need to work on my serves and dinking, I feel more aware of hitting in front of my opponent’s reach and maintaining a good arch. That lesson gave me useful insight into technique, and I’m hopeful I can develop those aspects further with practice. If you're looking for someone who genuinely breaks down pickleball skills without overloading, Kal’s a solid choice to try out.

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.

The lesson focused on practical gameplay and strategy, which I found quite helpful, especially for making better decisions during matches. Kal explained concepts clearly, and I felt more confident about my shot placement and court awareness after. Though I still have room to improve, this lesson definitely set a good foundation for continued growth in pickleball. Still, I think more targeted decision-making drills would really boost the experience. Anyway, I think it’s 100% trying Kal if you want a thoughtful approach to the game.

Oh, Kal's lesson was quite helpful, especially with shuffling and the wrist breaks. The focus on switching drops and backhand dinks really clarified some movements I’d struggled with before. Though I still need to work on resetting my ready position smoothly, I definitely feel more confident. Still, I think a future lesson could help me really lock in those techniques and improve my reflexes overall. If you’re into refining your pickleball skills, I’d suggest giving Kal a shot so you can experience the benefits firsthand.

I'm really glad I continued with the drill on backhand drives and added backhand drops in my lesson with Kal. It was quite helpful. Plus, I appreciated that Kal was willing to play singles and even doubles afterward, which made it more practical. Though, I think more focus on backhand technique and footwork would be good for next time, and maybe trying out some new shots I haven't learned yet. Still, I feel pretty confident about my backhand now, so I’ll definitely consider trying another lesson with Kal soon.

Last 3 classes what I learnt: 1. Dinking - various kinds of dinks, which to hit when. Shuffling. When to be defensive vs aggressive. How to gauge balls within reach. Volley versus letting it bounce. When to cut the angel by stepping in. 2. Drops: the right grip and form for the drop, How to be aggressive on the drop. When to step in and take it on the full and be aggressive. All in all great classes that help me hone my skills. Looking forward to the next sessions.

Oh yeah, the lesson with Kal was quite helpful. I especially appreciated learning about the closed serve and positioning after the serve. Though I still need to work on driving both forehand and backhand shots, I feel more confident about my game overall. Looks like there's a good foundation to build on, and I’m hopeful the next lesson will help sharpen those techniques further. If you're into pickleball and want to improve your skills, I’d say give Kal a try.

Hey, I gotta say, this lesson with Kal was quite good. It was helpful to reinforce the closed stance serve and work on positioning after the serve or return, which are key in pickleball. Though, I’m still hoping to improve my forehand and backhand drive a bit more for better returns. I think with more practice, that’ll come. Still, I appreciate the focus on fundamentals and the clear guidance. If you're interested in steady progress, Kal's a solid pick to try.

Wow, I have to say, Kal's lesson really helped with my stance and contact points for drives and serves, which was pretty good. Though I still want to work on adding some higher, deeper drives into my game, I think with more practice I can get there. Still, the focus on fundamentals, especially how to incorporate proper body movement, was definitely the lesson highlight for me. If you're looking to get a solid grasp on the basics, it’s worth giving Kal a try.

Though I still need to refine my technique, I found the session pretty helpful overall and feel more confident about applying what I learned on the court. Still, I'd consider another lesson to really master those shots. If you're into improving specific aspects of your pickleball game, I’d say give Kal a try.

Though I still need to work on my footwork for my drive, I’m optimistic about getting there. Hope to see continued progress, and I'll probably try another lesson with Kal soon.

Oh, that lesson with Kal focusing on the backhand drive was quite helpful. The guidance was practical and made me feel more confident in my stroke, though I still need to work on consistency. Still, I think practicing those drills should really improve my game over time, so I might try another lesson down the line.

The lesson with Kal was quite helpful. Focusing on mechanic, foot work, and technical skills really gave me a better understanding of no man zone drops. Still, I think covering more topics like drive and serves would make future lessons more complete, though. I’m looking forward to improving those areas next time.

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.

The lesson was quite helpful. I especially appreciated learning about strategies for doubles and how to target opponents' weak points. Though I still need to improve on third shot and dinks, I left feeling more confident. Still, I hope to build on volleys and further refine my resets with Kal.

The lesson focused on practical gameplay, which was pretty helpful for me. Still, I think I’d benefit from more guided drills in future lessons, though overall I felt it was a solid way to get on the court confidently. If you're considering trying Kal, it might be worth a shot.

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!

Hmm, I found the lesson quite helpful, especially with some specific court positioning tips that made my shots easier. Though, I still think a bit more focus on paddle control could be useful, still, I’d consider trying Kal for another lesson.
