“Leslie is a top-notch pickleball coach!! She does a great job meeting me wherever I am—whether it’s something specific I want to focus on or an area she notices needs work. Her feedback is always super helpful, and it’s made a real difference in my game. My serves, dinks, and groundstrokes have all improved a lot since I started training with her. On top of that, she’s super nice, friendly, and flexible with scheduling. I’d highly recommend her to anyone looking to improve their game.”

I was a true beginner when I first started working with Leslie. Her patience and clear instructions together with recommendations for droills and practice are invaluable as I progress in pickleball skills. She found the little things that could be easily fixed quickly and we worked on those first, followed by the things that needed more continuous practice. I highly recommend Leslie as a coach. And she is fun to work with too!

Leslie is a very competent, experienced and talented coach. She’s patient, paces the lesson well and provides detailed instructions and feedback. I like the fact that she understands body mechanics and the physics of how the ball and use of the paddle interact. Every lesson I learn something new and feel like I’m improving. Best of all, I’m having fun.

Leslie helped me focus on body positioning and where I should be to react & hit certain shots. She breaks it down in a way that is easy to understand. I’m improving my game and enjoying the process!
