The center was established to support Columbine survivors and anyone else who needed help navigating difficult times in their lives. Jeff was teaching a class on mindfulness and the Four Agreements. He emphasized the importance of staying in the present moment as a way to cope with everything happening around us and in our lives. The Four Agreements is a book that offers a practical code of conduct, helping people eliminate unnecessary suffering and discover personal freedom, true happiness… > From Debra, 5 out of 5 > Here's a warm, personal review for Jeff: --- ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐ My sister and I had next to zero pickleball experience when we booked a session with Jeff, and we walked away ready for our first league game. He covered everything we needed to get started — serves, stances, basic rules, and best practices — and managed to make it all feel approachable and fun. What stood out most was how thorough he was without ever making us feel like we were in a lecture. He met us right where we were, kept the energy light, and made sure we actually understood what we were doing and why. By the end of the session, we wer… > From Nikki, 5 out of 5 > I had an excellent experience working with Jeff. He truly exceeded my expectations in every way. In just a few lessons, I saw noticeable improvement in my skills and confidence on the court. I started as a beginner and quickly progressed to a 3.0 level, which I didn’t think would be possible in such a short time. Jeff is not only highly knowledgeable, but also patient, encouraging, and very attentive to detail. He explains techniques clearly and tailors each lesson to focus on what you specifically need to improve. His coaching style makes learning both effective and enjoyable. I’m incredibly… > From Anna, 5 out of 5 > I am a beginner to this fun sport and I had my first lesson with Jeff this week and I got more from the experience than expected! I had an excellent experience with Jeff and his coaching approach using the Tao of Pickelball method. I found Jeff highly intuitive and responsive to how I needed to be coached, he kept it fun, focused and at my pace. I look forward to working with Jeff over the next several months to get me moving and playing on the court! > From Gillian, 5 out of 5 > I had the pleasure of sharing the court with Jeff as we were both instructors for a local recreation district. Jeff is a very experienced coach that enjoys interacting with people. He has a way of teaching fundamentals without lecturing, while making it fun. You know that you are with a good coach when you learn something from a fellow coach and I certainly did from Jeff. I would highly recommend Jeff as a coach for Pickleball. > From Dale, 5 out of 5 > Jeff is a very knowledgeable, patient and skilled instructor whose love of the game comes through in his lessons and classes. His instruction has helped me go from a beginner to a competent player in a few short months. I look forward to continuing to learn from Jeff and I highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their game. > From Lori, 5 out of 5 > I cannot say enough words to express my sincere gratitude and appreciation for Coach Jeff for being my first, to introduce me to the game of pickleball and sharing your love and passion for the game with me. I hope and pray that the Good Lord will continue to Bless you, keep you, and guide you along the way.
