The lesson with Jake was quite helpful, especially practicing the correct stance and paddle follow through for backhand shots, which I found pretty useful. Though I still need to drill down on different shots to build muscle memory and strength, the focus on technique really stood out. I appreciate that he kept the lesson grounded and realistic. Still, I’m hopeful that with more practice, I’ll see even steadier improvement. If you want someone who pays attention to your key fundamentals, Jake’s worth trying out.

Jake's lesson was quite effective. He took the time to understand my starting point and tailored the session accordingly, which I appreciated. Though I still have some areas to improve, I feel more confident about my fundamentals now. Still, I’m optimistic about building on this progress in future lessons. If you're looking for a measured, thoughtful approach to pickleball, it might be worth trying him out.

The lesson with Jake had some really great strategies, and I appreciate how the progression seemed quite thoughtful. Honestly, it was quite helpful overall. Though I don't have any major suggestions, maybe if he notices repetitive errors, a little pointed feedback could be useful. Still, I think trying a lesson with him could be worth it if you're into steady, practical guidance.

One of the most helpful parts of the lesson with Jake was realizing how footwork affects the backhand pop up. Understanding proper positioning really made a difference. If you want to improve your game and get clear, practical tips, Jake’s lessons are definitely worth trying out. Great pace and clear explanations made it easy to follow along. Give it a go! 🙂

Wow!!! If you're new to pickleball, Jake is THE guy to learn from! I'm a 56-year-old woman who's never picked up a paddle before, but my kids convinced me to give it a try. I was hesitant, but Jake's patience and clear explanations made me feel comfortable on the court. I've come a long way!
