“Honestly, the lesson with Todd was quite helpful, especially since the facilities are well-maintained and the coach makes an effort to create a comfortable environment. Though my wife and I are just starting to play again after her neck injury, the focus on fundamentals and gentle guidance felt pretty supportive. The lesson highlighted the coach and the setup as key benefits for our renewed interest. Still, I’m optimistic about further sessions to really build confidence in our game. If you're looking for a laid-back approach with attentive coaching, I’d suggest giving Todd a try.”

The lesson with Todd was quite helpful. I appreciated the specific feedback on shot placement and court positioning, which made a noticeable difference in my game. Though I think continued practice will be key, I feel more confident about jumping into matches now. Still, there's room to refine my technique further, so I might look for another lesson down the line. If you're aiming to improve your pickleball skills, giving Todd a try could be worth it.

We had an amazing lesson with Todd on Saturday March 24. We are beginning Pickleballers and Todd explained every rule and technique question we could come up with. He was very positive and tailored the class to our needs. I would absolutely recommend Todd if you are looking for lessons and we will use him again on our next to the greater Palm Springs area.

We have friends we play with who we’re getting consistently better week after week. Finally we asked what’s going on? They all told us they’ve been working with Todd. My husband and I decided to give it a try and, the improvement is incredible!! I highly recommend Todd to anyone wanting to improve.

Todd provides clear direction on the fundamentals that are game changing. He always has drills to teach more advanced play skills. He is extremely positive and makes every lesson fun. I love my lessons and highly recommend him.

“Todd is friendly and personable. He also is perceptive- recognizing what skill deficiencies demand attention. We would suggest that he not introduce politics into the mix, however, by wearing a Red 47 cap, especially during a contentious election.”

“Had another lesson with Todd today. I've decided that I'm just a walking pickleball problem. That being said, It seems that Todd has an answer for all my issues. Footwork ✔️ Poor technique ✔️ Strategy questions ✔️ Thanks Todd for all your help.”
