“I found Gianmarco (Jimmy) in this app because I was looking for a coach who could introduce me to pickleball. Gianmarco is extremely knowledgeable and patient, but also his lessons are always fun and engaging. I now play pickleball at least twice a week in Santa Monica and meet with Gianmarco on weekends to work on my shots. I made lots of new friends on the courts and am extremely happy with the results from Jimmy's lessons. I highly recommend Jimmy if you are interested in having fun while elevating your pickleball games.”

Jimmy is an amazing coach. In my honest opinion one of his lessons has the same value of taking 20-30 group lessons at my club. My gf and I wanted to improve our game play and Jimmy shared his skills and expertise to improve shots and strategy. We started our lessons with drills and he was able to understand how to fix our mistakes immediately. Fun and entertaining lessons with him! He gave us confidence to win our first tournament! GRAZIE COACH!

Honestly, I really appreciated how Gianmarco focused on specific pickleball strategies during the lesson, which helped me better understand shot placement and movement. Still, I think I could use a bit more work on my dink but I’m hopeful the next lesson will clarify that. If you’re into pickleball and want to improve, I’d say it’s worth giving him a try.

Gianmarco is such a great coach! Patient and very knowledgeable in what is doing, he can make drills and tactics FUN! We weekly meet to improve my footwork, positioning on court and shots technics. My goal is to be a 4.0 player in mixed games before summer and compete in tournaments with my partner and Jimmy is making this a reality! Thanks a lot!

Gianmarco helped me understand strategies and tactics to increase my DUPR level but also focusing on my serves, returns and my backhand shots. Coming from a tennis background I was hitting the ball with wide swings instead of compound ones. Overall, I increased my singles score by 1.35 and my doubles by 0.78 in just 1 month! Thanks Jimmy!

Amazing coach! We had 2 classes at Beverly Hills tennis club. Very professional and I like the way Gianmarco explains difficult concepts by breaking them down into smaller steps. We fixed my forehand swing in our first class and footwork and positioning in our second one. Eager to become better and better.
