Derek helped me on my pickleball crash course and taught me all about how the tennis experience can be transferred to pickleball play. The explanations and examples that he gave were very easy to comprehend and I was able to progress very quickly after the session. Would recommend Derek to anyone who wants to learn or improve pickleball skills.

I've been playing pickleball for nearly two years, and I wish I had started learning from Derek much earlier on. He really focuses on the fundamentals. He's always patient and observant. Whenever I play a ball poorly due to a bad habit, he'd immediately point out what I was doing wrong, why it doesn't work, and how best to fix it. The drills he does really helps me practice in specific areas of weakness so that I can keep improving my skills and game strategy.

Derek is so great! He listens and observes while he teaches.
Great personality for coaching!
He knows what he is teaching.
I would highly recommend you try his clinics!
