“This was my first lesson and I really liked it. Amit did assess my current level through the series of drills, immediately giving me feedback and pointers on what to do , what not to do and how to improve. We played skinny games, practiced some more drills and finally played doubles with other people on the court. Then Amit gave me a good summary of what he thinks I should be practicing. Overall this was exactly what I was looking for. Fun, quick pace , wide variety of drills, practical and prompt feedback and even a real game with continuous feedback as we played it. Looking forward to my next lesson.”

Amit’s approach really helped us all get comfortable with the basics quickly, and I think that’s what stood out. We made good progress and learned the rules in minutes, which was pretty helpful. Though, I’m looking forward to honing our skills further and getting some real-time corrections to improve our game form. If you’re after an instructor who can set a solid foundation and boost your confidence, Amit’s definitely worth a shot.

I had my first pickleball class and I’m extremely happy with the experience. The coach was fully engaged throughout the session, making sure I was actively playing and practicing every technique he taught. He patiently worked with me until I got things right, which really helped build my confidence. I truly appreciate his dedication and hands-on approach. I would definitely recommend him to anyone looking to improve their game!

Playing with Amit was quite a good experience, especially as I enjoyed learning new strategies during the lesson. Though I still want to hone my skills further, I appreciated the focus on playing effectively as a partner. Still, continuing to develop those tactics should make a real difference. If you're interested in fine-tuning your game, Amit might be worth considering.

Although I have been playing PB for quite sometime, I was looking for someone to help me master more topspin in my shots and I found Amit to be that instructor! He also gave me some helpful suggestions on how to make my serves more powerful. He was on time, informative and very knowable in strategy of the game. I plan to continue with Amit in the immediate future.
