About honza

I’ve been teaching pickleball since 2020, after more than 20 years as a tennis coach. Sharing what I’ve learned on the court has always been my passion, and writing is another way I love to give back to the community. Together with my wife Lauren, I co-founded Hawai‘i Pickleball, where we help players of all levels learn, improve, and enjoy the game.
