Beginner 4-Pack
You’ll get four 1-hour lessons at a court that’s convenient to both our locations and schedules. We’ll begin with assessing your current interests, skill level, and goals. Then we’ll move on to learning the basics about how to play, from rules and court layout to proper grips to simply getting the ball over the net. And, most importantly, having fun. Through the next lessons, you’ll learn how to dink (Yes, that’s a real pickleball term), serve, return shots, and play a full game.

Coach Russ Lombardo is a great coach for Pickleball. My wife and I developed true skills given Russ's approach to technique and having fun. His style is encouraging, inclusive and inviting to continue forward. Our PB journey started in early 2022. Having trained under multiple coaches and clinics to help accelerate our skills, my personal favorite by far is Russ. Many thanks

In the spirit of the season wanted to thank you for hosting your original clinic at the Y, all that you taught and most of all your inclusiveness and encouragement. It has been so fun being a part of the pickle ball group at the Y however I’m not sure I would be there without your organization of the GroupMe groups and your “all are welcome” attitude. Big THANK YOU

I'm glad I booked a lesson with Russ because my wife was quite happy with how helpful her experience was. The one-on-one really seemed to make a difference and left her feeling more confident on the court. Though I didn't participate myself, it’s clear that his approach resonates, and I might give it a try myself next time.

Russ Lombardo is by far the best coach my husband and I have had. He has a plan and drill for each week. Then he watches you play a game and comments on the area we just drilled in. How nice it would be if all the coaches taught in such a valuable way! Perhaps Russ should coach the coaches!

My husband and I had a great lesson with Russ! We are long-time tennis players and he had lots of good tips on how to transition to pickleball. He also has a wicked serve!! We are already looking forward to our next lesson!

Russ's lesson was quite helpful, especially the part about patience since I’d been away for a couple of months. I feel like I’ve got a good foundation now.
