I communicate directly and straight to the point, while being friendly and gentle. I'll repeatedly remind you of tips so that we drill it into your brain, killing bad habits and replacing them with good habits. I've been playing pickleball almost daily for 2+ years at a 4.0 level with some tournament experience. I enjoy coaching just for fun - I love mastering strategic games and sharing that passion with others who like to learn as well.

## Reviews

> Sam shows how to hit the ball for every stroke and explains it right with the biomechanics / how to swing. He explains where to position yourself, how to hit the ball, how spin affects the trajectory path of the ball. I've learned a ton.
> From Julia, 5 out of 5

> Sam's physical demonstrations help a lot. He covers everything about the game, and gives direct feedback without fluff. He's patient when I struggle, but pushes me when I'm ready.
> From Jordan, 5 out of 5

> Clear, direct coaching. Friendly and gentle. Shows every shot—topspin, dink, drop, respect the X. Fast pace when I need it, slows down when I don’t.
> From Alex, 5 out of 5

> From Sam, 5 out of 5
