Ever Finish A Game And Think — What Am I Even Doing Wrong?
You’re showing up. You’re putting in the time. But something isn’t clicking. You watch better players and you can see what they’re doing differently, you just can’t seem to make your body do the same thing.
The problem isn’t effort. It’s that casual play doesn’t fix technical problems. It just repeats them. Every weekend you play the same shots, make the same mistakes, and wonder why nothing’s changing.
You don’t need to play more. You need one focused afternoon with a coach who can actually show you what’s going wrong, and fix it.
Your Regular Group Notices Before You Even Say Anything.
Same group. Same banter. But this time when the ball comes at your backhand, you don't hope for the best. You step into it. You reset it clean. It goes exactly where you want it to go.
By the second game your partners start noticing. Someone asks what you've been doing differently.
You just smile.
"One afternoon of real coaching does more than six months of casual play."
HI, I'M STEPHEN SARAGO
I'm a Level 1 Certified Instructor through PPR — the world's leading pickleball certification. I've coached all group sizes but honestly, small groups are where the real progress happens. You get actual attention, actual feedback, and you leave a different player than when you walked in. I got into pickleball the same way most people do — and then I couldn't stop. I studied high-level tournament play, learned from senior pros, invested in proper coaching myself. That obsession with getting better is exactly what I bring to every session I run. To me pickleball is rhythm, strategy and feel all in one. And once it clicks for you, you'll understand why nobody ever quits this sport.

On May 2nd, I'm working with a small group in Sarasota. Come get better.
Why We Spend Most Of The Day Drilling
Most Camps
- You spend half the time listening, half the time waiting
- Generic tips that don't apply to your game
- You leave with notes. Not skills.
Frontier Camp
- High rep blocks — you hit the same shot until it sticks
- Coach watches every swing and corrects in real time
- You leave with muscle memory, not just advice
"You don't get better by watching. You get better by doing it until it's automatic."

"I've done camps before and honestly this was different. Small group, coach actually watched me play and told me exactly what I was doing wrong. Worth every penny."

What Makes This Different
Small Group
Only
We cap every camp at [X] players. You get actual court time and actual coaching — not a spot in a crowd.
Real Reps, Real Results
We don't spend the day talking about pickleball. We spend it playing it. Every drill is designed to build muscle memory fast.
Friendly Tournament Finish
Every camp ends with a competitive mini-tournament. Because the best way to test what you've learned is to actually use it under pressure.
