💰$50 weekly lessons
I’m a natural athlete who believes that age brings wisdom, enhancing my approach to sports. Pickleball, to me, is as much about mental strategy as it is about skill. My teaching style is fun and easygoing, which helps others enjoy the game while improving. Ranked between 4.0 and 4.5, I often surprise opponents with my power and precise placement on the court.

Nice, lesson was clear and useful, and I walked away confident, ready to apply the new skills, especially thanks to good, clear communication. I’m looking forward to testing them in my next games. Lesson gave me practical steps I can repeat, so I’ll keep practicing.

Spencer made the lesson feel practical by letting me play real games while I learned, which kept things lively and focused. I left with clear tweaks to my approach and a sense I’m building steady progress. I’m looking forward to more sessions and continued improvements. 🥎

Starting at 3.0 I’m now a confident 4.0 player. Playing in tournaments and winning!. I went from pickleball newbie to feeling like a pro in just one year thanks to Spencer's magic touch!

Coach Spencer is a total ace! He helped me improve my serves and volleys in just a few sessions. Super patient, knowledgeable, and fun to be around. Highly recommend!

Spencer taught me how to hit a mean forehand. I never knew I could deliver that much power. His simple instructions were amazing. Now I wanna work on my backhand.
