Ball Not Going Where You Want? – Monday, September 20 – Beginner In order to take control of the point, rather than just wait and see how it turns out, you have to be able to put the ball where you want. We’ll learn and practice the body mechanics to make this possible: Consistent stroke, controlling the paddle face, body alignment, and footwork. This lesson can really accelerate your game.
John Wozencraft is an IPTPA (International Pickleball Teaching Professional Association) Certified Instructor and USA Pickleball Ambassador.
“I’ve been teaching workshops and private lessons for about three years, and teaching other arts most of my life. My background in tennis, dance, and yoga really help me see how your movements are either supporting or hindering the shots you want. If you don’t feel like you’re in control of your game, some coaching can really help. A great pickleball game comes from consistent shots, both hard ones and soft ones, knowing which one to choose, good teamwork, and a lot of patience! And the longer the point lasts, the more fun it gets".

Winning the Soft Game – Thursday, September 23 – Intermediate The soft game means hitting a ball that the opponent can’t attack. If you’re not getting attacked, you can relax and gain control of the point. This is easier than you may think, and makes pickleball even more fun
