I only started playing pickleball 1–2 months ago, and I’m honestly amazed by how much I’ve already learned from him. In such a short amount of time, he has taught me everything from foundational shots to topspin and, most importantly, how to become more consistent. What really sets Robin apart is how knowledgeable and skilled he is as a player. Because he is so consistent and technically strong, he can immediately identify what’s going wrong with a shot, explain why it’s happening, and show me exactly what I need to change to impro… > From Rosie, 5 out of 5 > Robin is an amazing coach. He has a great eye for immediately spotting exactly what you’re doing wrong and, more importantly, he explains how to fix it in a way that actually makes sense. I noticed a huge difference after just one lesson. He helped me learn forehand and two-handed backhand baseline drive returns, two-handed dinks, both forehand and backhand flicks, and also taught me how to serve properly with a ton of topspin. What I really liked is how detail-oriented he is. He pays attention to the small things that make a big difference and gives very specific feedback instead of just gen… > From Gerard, 5 out of 5 > I had a great experience working with Robin as my pickleball instructor. Robin is incredibly flexible with scheduling and always willing to adjust lessons based on what I need to work on. What I appreciate most is how thorough Robin is. Every technique is explained clearly, including the “why” behind each adjustment, which really helps everything click. Robin is also very understanding, patient, and encouraging, making each lesson feel comfortable and productive. Each session feels personalized and focused on helping me improve as a player. I would definitely recommend Robin to anyone looking… > From Angel, 5 out of 5 > After taking the time to watch me play both with him and against him and recording games I was in, Robin gave comprehensive feedback of my entire game and things I did well and things I can improve on. He went out of his way to make sure I knew the lesson he was trying to teach and why it was important. After, when going through one last pieces of feedback I was struggling with he recorded himself pointing the paddle face the way I was doing on certain shots and the way he and other top players do it as a suggestion to further improve my game. Top notch instruction that was helpful and the ga… > From Amir, 5 out of 5 > Robin has worked with me individually and in a group setting. In the group setting, he was able to watch all 4 of us play in real time. He also recorded the games and was able dissect it more thoroughly when we were done, He even generated stats for us. He pointed out things like when we should attack vs reset and keep the ball in play. He taught proper positioning for optimal play. Individually, we worked on specific shots that I wanted to learn. We even played a few games together so he can observe me implement them in my game. If you want to level up your play, I would recommend Robin. He… > From Cynthia, 5 out of 5 > Robin put together a comprehensive assessment for our drilling group and gave us a couple skills to focus on each session based on the feedback he received from our group. The drills were tailored to our needs and what I really found helpful was that he recorded us playing and went the extra step to give us stats based on the recordings. We were given access to strategy concepts that were concise and easy to understand. This definitely helped me level up my pickleball IQ. He also worked with me one on one, giving me some simple adjustments to make with my dinking that had an immediate positiv… > From Nani, 5 out of 5 > To ask someone who’s a great player to teach me a few things takes guts. I came to Robin for help on my pickleball game, and so glad I did. He’s so nice and friendly and was quick to say yes. Robin is all about YOU. if YOU need to get better, HE WILL MAKE YOU BETTER. I’m so glad I was courageous enough to ask him for help. We set a date, met at a park, and he taught me things I didn’t know and improved my game in the first hour. Very patient and very knowledgeable of the game. Thanks Robin, you are a great teacher and I’ll definitely reach out for more lessons in the future. Thanks friend > From Omar, 5 out of 5 > I took a 90 minute lesson with Robin for Pickleball… I am a beginner with good hand eye coordination… , but lacked the technique.. and in one session… Robin was able to help me understand and implement advanced techniques, which improved my game immediately.! so I signed up for a package since I am committed to improving and someday I’ll be half as good as Robin! He was very patient and he made it a lot of fun! A great Coach!!!! And hes a fantastic player as well… since coaching is one thing, but learning from a great player is a cherry on top.!!! > From Joe, 5 out of 5 ## Frequently asked questions ### What ages do you teach?
