Tennis to Pickleball
Transitioning from a tennis background to the game of pickleball has been a slow process for me. Corey of Boost Pickleball has made the journey a fun safe experience. I had picked up a lot of bad habits, borrowed from tennis, that Corey was able to address with his solid understanding of correct body mechanics and an in-depth knowledge of Pickleball. His teaching style is positive, attentive, respectful, and thorough. He gives me 110% of his focus during a session, and answers all my questions. Most of all, he makes if fun. Thank you Corey.

Cool Confidence
Not coordinated. Never played any regular sports. Always felt a little "less" when doing anything athletic. If you played with me, you lost the game. Then Corey played pickleball with me and drew me in with his positive attitude, encouraging words, and his emphasis on making it fun, not stressful - "No sorries!" Thanks to his supportive coaching, I now feel confident enough to join a pickleball group and play without apologizing. I'm still learning, but I feel like I can hold my own and even encourage other beginning players to find the fun and keep improving. Corey has opened the door for me to be comfortable with my skills and enjoy regular exercise with a welcoming social group. Thanks, Corey and Boost Pickleball!

Visual Learner
If you’re looking to improve your game, I highly recommend Corey and BOOST PB. He is knowledgeable and very upbeat. His lessons are crafted to your specific goals. Corey videoed my service motion, explained and demonstrated how to improve it - we worked on it, then he filmed again so I could see the before and after. As a visual learner, this was very helpful. After the lesson Corey sends a description of what we worked on, it’s a valuable reference. Corey is highly skilled and encouraging, a winning combination!

Lesson or No Lesson
Ever wonder if pickleball lessons are worthwhile? The answer is absolutely! As a novice, I enrolled in Boost Pickleball’s BPB Academy PB 101 and the results were transformational. The 5 lesson series impacted all foundational aspects of the game. Before enrolling in PB 101, I struggled in rec play and now play with more seasoned players confidently. Corey from Boost PB has a very friendly and encouraging coaching style that makes learning fun and educational. I feel the lessons gave me a strong fundamental base to build on without aimlessly fumbling around the courts leading to bad habits. Whether you are thinking about getting started, or an experienced player looking to advance, spending some quality time with Coach Corey will surely pay off. Now if he can only do something about my new found pickleball addiction…

Hooked, Line & Sinker
I came to Pickleball with no real expectation … it was my husbands idea! Boy am I hooked! I would say Corey’s ability to explain concepts and demonstrate skills has been the key for me. Each lesson was both educational and fun. I loved getting a digital copy of what the lesson focused on as well as homework ideas to reinforce the lesson and help to continually improve my game. With a series of beginner lessons under my belt, I feel more confident and comfortable on the court. I actually feel comfortable enough to play with more advanced and skilled recreational players. I look forward to many more pickleball games and additional lessons with Coach Corey.

Making Great Strides
I've been playing Pickleball for the past two and a half years and worked with a few great coaches during that time. Corey is among the best as he is technically skilled, breaks down the different components in a way that is logical and is manageable, provides great feedback and is enormously patient. I appreciate the way he diagnoses my technical skills and creates lessons and drills focused on improving those skills. He makes the lessons enjoyable and has a great sense of humor which makes the coaching sessions really fun. I believe that I have made substantial improvements in my game based on the coaching that I have received from Corey. I look forward to working with him each week as his instruction and coaching have made me a better player!

Junior Pickle
Pickleball is wicked fun to play with my friends and our coaches are fun. Coach Dill………Pickle is kind of a goofball. The games are fun and I liked playing mini pickleball the best.

Dancer
As a former professional ballet dancer, I have always considered myself athletic but never had ANY experience or luck with sports that involve hand-eye coordination. I never learned to play catch as a kid and the idea of swinging and making contact with a moving object was completely foreign. I like to laugh at myself as I learn so finding the right coach was essential. Fortunately a friend referred me to Coach Corey with BOOST PB. From our initial contact I knew I found my coach. Very upbeat, down-to-earth and positive. He made the learning progression fun and easy to understand and I was able to translate my existing abilities into new skills. After a few lessons, I felt confident with the basic rules and strokes, and could hold my own in a friendly match. Thanks Coach! Looking forward to my next choreographed lesson.
