The instructors were so kind and helpful! I really liked doing the drills as the repetitiveness really helped to drill the techniques into my head and muscle memory. When they noticed something that they thought any of us could work on, they would pull us aside to help us fix it. That individualized advice made such a big difference. I was able to learn a lot and am excited to apply what I learned on the courts!

It’s obvious that Honza enjoys giving lessons and turning out better Pickleball players. I certainly appreciate his patience. It’s not just about hitting the ball back-and-forth from different parts of the court for an hour. His focus is on teaching you technique and strategy. He has an uncanny ability to watch your movements and strokes and provide immediate corrections. The results of which have me shaking my head, wondering why I couldn’t figure that out. Examples from my lesson this morning.: Forehand Drive-finish across my shoulder get low to create more balance and transfer weight more equally. Serve - like my forehand keep my paddle out instead of straight down stay balanced, move forward, too early with my wrist and end up over my shoulder. These are just several examples of today’s lesson. He works with you until you’re more comfortable and it becomes a natural movement for you. Thanks, Honza.

Honza is a fantastic coach. He tailors each session to what I need to work on, quickly pinpoints issues and gives excellent guidance and drills that target areas needing improvement. Super practical, helpful and enjoyable to learn from.

Love Honza's Clinics. Participated in his Intermediate+ 4.0 Clinic on Sunday 6/8/2025 at King Intermediate. A lot of drills and pointers. I have been playing for about 9 years and still found the clinic very helpful. Clinic was 2 hours plus a bonus 30 min HOPS conditioning and agility session.

I enjoyed the clinic at King Intermediate although it was hot. I'm glad I attended the 8 am clinic. I especially liked it because they asked what areas we wanted to learn and worked on those drills. It was nice meeting people from all over the island!

Honza is an incredible pickleball coach! I’ve grown so much with each lesson, thanks to his thoughtful approach and effective drills that translate directly into real game situations. He tailors each session to fit the unique needs of his students, ensuring steady improvement. Most importantly, I genuinely enjoy every lesson, and my confidence in both rec play and tournaments has skyrocketed. Highly recommend!

After getting "schooled" by the 4.0 60+ MXD teams at the Fall Brawl tournament in Utah, my partner and I decided to hire a coach. We chose Honza because he is well respected by the best players in Hawaii and he and his wife Lauren know how to win. From the start, he was able to identify what we needed to work on and drilled our group of 4 on lobs, resets, all kinds of dinks, and my favorite, angled roll volleys. He is masterful at giving feedback and making learning fun. Today we won our first gold medal. Our strategy was to do all the things we learned and it worked!!!! Mahalo! See you Sunday...bring it on!
