Teaching philosophy: Mastering pickleball fundamentals is essential. This “jack of all trades” strategy (dinking , 3^rd or 5^th shot drops, blocking & resetting, transitional volleys and lobbing) will enable players to adapt to each opponent. I have high profile tournament experience and look forward to imparting what I have learned and observed.

"I was  visiting from Massachusetts and took the third shot drop class .  I really enjoyed it .  You changed the whole way I hold the paddle and I returned home and have done so much better ! It’s been great for my confidence. Thank you so much!"  ...Denise Zaccheo
