Tom the Coach made pickleball click for me in just three lessons! I signed up for Tom’s 3-lesson intro and was blown away. • Lesson 1 focused on serves and returns—Tom’s simple cue of “aim deep and stay balanced” immediately improved my consistency. • Lesson 2 was all about dinking at the kitchen; he showed me how to soften my grip and stay patient instead of trying to smash everything. • Lesson 3 tied it together with the third-shot drop and smart positioning, which totally changed how I approach rallies. Tom keeps things clear, fun, and encouraging. I went from feeling awkward on the court to holding my own in games. Highly recommend him to beginners or anyone wanting quick progress!

Tom's lesson was quite good, honestly. He was very patient and seemed to understand how to connect with a beginner, which made a real difference. The focus on all the basics was helpful, and I can see myself improving overall. Though I know I still have a lot to learn, I feel encouraged to keep practicing with his guidance. If you're interested in steady progress and a thoughtful approach, you might want to consider giving Thomas a try.

Here you go. I have worked with Tom now for 2 years. He is a great instructor and has the ability to point out areas for improvement, in a way that makes it easy to incorporate. Very knowledgeable with the ability to pinpoint small adjustments that make a difference. There are many choices for instructors in the area, but my choice is always Tom! Nancy M.

Learned more in 3 lessons than months on my own. Tom doesn’t waste time—each lesson had a clear focus, from consistent serves to soft dinks and strategy. I especially loved how he explained shot selection without overcomplicating things. I feel ready for recreational league play now. Worth every penny.

🌟🌟🌟🌟🌟 Tom made scoring finally make sense! I booked one lesson just to figure out the basics and how to keep score. Tom explained the rules so simply that I was playing a real game by the end of the hour. Super beginner-friendly!
