Testimonials: 

John was a terrific instructor. Not only did he communicate well and is a really nice guy, but he gave us many ways to remember the fundamentals which as beginners is invaluable. We were from out of the area so we can't take advantage of more lessons - but it was a great experience and we highly recommend John 

Claudio Anzil

 I set up lessons to learn PICKLEBALL after going to play PICKLEBALL with beginners. I needed to learn more about playing the sport since I was not a tennis player. I had lessons by John. He helped me to play better besides understanding the game better too. I highly recommend taking lessons. It kept me from developing bad habits I would have to break. I highly recommend John to be your teacher. He explains what he’s teaching you and has you work on it and helps you improve your technique. He is very friendly, informative and patient. I plan to attend groups he is working with presently and as I get better, play in a tournament

Marty Darling 

 Before I knew it all my friends were playing Pickleball and were asking me to join them. I knew I'd be a flounder if I just went out with them and tried to play. I sought out John and it was a great decision. He taught me the basics and continued to reinforce those through the 10 lessons as I progressed in refining and improving my game. John is a terrific pro and shares his expertise skillfully. It was fun taking lessons with John and I know it made my learning curve shorter.

Ron Mitchell 

I started my lessons with John Gill as a complete novice. John was knowledgeable, patient, and energetic. His passion for pickleball is contagious. After ten lessons, I feel confident enough to play against others and not feel like a beginner. I've gone from watching shows on Bravo to watching pickleball videos on Instagram; that is progress, I highly recommend John for your pickleball learning needs.

Jessica Ambrose 

John not only shows you what to do but explains why you should do it. I highly recommend him to learn the right way to play pickleball

Elaine Morgan 

John Gill, is an excellent instructor. I just had my first lesson with John (I have never played pickleball before and I am 62 yrs old) he made the lesson very enjoyable and you learn a lot about the game and you can see that he enjoys teaching you how to play pickleball and he loves the game. He’s a good Aussie Mate !
