My fiancee and I recently attended a 3-day golf school with Skip Malek. I am a ten handicap and my fiancee is a relative beginner. Skip was FANTASTIC. He was patient, practical, no-nonsense and really focused us on the very beginning on the fundamentals we needed to improve both of our games. We saw improvements in our games immediately and we continue to improve as we practice on our own. Skip used cameras and swing technology to give us another perspective. We have these videos on our phones and review them often, which is very helpful. On top of all that, Skip could not be nicer. He is down to earth, friendly and generous. He even offered to review future videos that we might send him and give us tips. We highly reccommend taking lessons with Skip - you will be very glad that you did.

Other reviews have described how good the lessons, clinics, and round robins are. What hit me was the totality: Palmetto Dunes has everything you could want for pickleball. 24 courts, lights, top players to watch, beginner clinics, huge baskets of balls, a stocked pro shop. (You do not need to stay at Palmetto Dunes to take advantage of any of these offerings, though PD has gorgeous accommodations.) We had clinics and lessons with Jamie, Sarah Mitten, Sarah Ansboury and Noah, and loved every moment of them. Lots of 4.5 players and lots of 3.0 players so something for everyone. Using our past travels to tennis resorts as a guide, I don’t believe there is anything Palmetto Dunes needs to add. For me, it is the top pickleball center in the US. We will be back next year for sure.

Took a pickleball clinic with Mark ... I don't typically provide a review but he is a great instructor. It was informative, fun and he left me with drills which I can take home and continue long after the clinic ended. Highly recommend.

I have been going to Michael Anthony's Cooking Classes for as long as I remember. I have 32 pages of class recipes! Chef Trey Place is incredible as a teacher and chef. Last week, one of our daughters was in town and attended with me. She had a ball. The class starts with a glass of Prosecco and one is immediately taken to another country or range of cooking that is different and unique. The recipes are easy to follow and all ingredients can be found at your local store. One of Chef's favorite ingredients is butter, so you can imagine the outcome will be awesome!!! After each of the three courses, one gets to sample a beautiful plate of the food he created, including a glass of wine. The class is so inspiring and Chef Trey is always open to questions or comments.

While visiting Hilton Head last fall, I decided it was time to get back into tennis (with COVID restrictions, outdoor tennis became one of the few "safe" activities in California). I played varsity tennis in high school but was out of practice for about 15 years. After calling around, I found Van Der Meer tennis and was immediately paired up with an instructor the following day - Scott at Van Der Meer's Shipyard campus. We spent a lot of time on ground strokes, especially my forehand. That two-hour lesson totally changed my enjoyment of the game! Just a few tips on the forehand and finally I had a consistent shot. Each time I get off the court, I so appreciate the lesson from Van Der Meer tennis in Hilton Head.
