Jonny is honestly an incredible pickleball coach. From day one, he’s been unbelievably patient and takes the time to really break everything down in a way that actually makes sense. He doesn’t just tell you what to do—he explains why you’re doing it, which has made a huge difference in how quickly I’ve improved. Over the past two months, my game has improved more than I ever expected. My technique, consistency, and overall confidence on the court are on a completely different level, and that’s 100% thanks to him. He creates such a comfortable learning environment, never rushes you, and adjusts his coaching style to exactly what you need. You can tell he genuinely cares about helping you get better. If you’re thinking about taking lessons—do it with Jonny. You won’t regret it.

can’t recommend this coach enough! Today was my first pickleball lesson, and I was a complete beginner with almost no idea what I was doing. He was incredibly patient, took his time to explain every detail, and was fully dedicated throughout the entire session. He made me feel comfortable, kept encouraging me, and turned what could have been an intimidating experience into something really fun. If you’re looking for a knowledgeable, professional, and genuinely passionate pickleball coach, he’s the one. Thank you for an amazing first lesson—I can’t wait for the next one!

Jonny was amazing! Super helpful, patient, and really great at breaking down the fundamentals. He helped me understand not just how to hit a backhand and generate topspin, but why those shots are so important strategically. That kind of coaching makes a big difference. The courts were pretty full, which was the only minor hiccup, but Jonny handled it like a pro and even gave me extra time. Highly recommend him if you’re serious about improving your pickleball game!

The lesson helped me focus a bit on my serve, drive, drop and some back hand practice, I do still need to work on consistency. Jonny’s approach is pretty straightforward, and I appreciated the practical tips he provided. Next time, we will focus on backhand techniques as it is one of my identified weakness. Thanks Jonny, I really appreciate your assistance towards my goal of playing for Jamaica in the ladies over 50 division. L. Fough, RN

Helped me improve my drops and dinks. Improved my shot selection, shot locations and mental game. Providing me with a good strategy as I’m over the age of 60+ and I’m not as fast as the young guns. I have been able to play much better with his coaching, playing smarter not harder and I’m mastering my 5th shot drop and better footwork at the kitchen.

Master Fundamentals. Improved my serve. Help me with shot selection, key strategies in the back of the court and when at the kitchen. Helped me improve my footwork and paddle control. Helped me find my paddle grip and which is better for my style of play. Helped me choose which paddle would improve my game.
