Serving Up Laughter: The Joyful Benefits of Pickleball

I just started playing Pickleball about 6 weeks ago. OMG…I absolutely love it.

This is a game just about everyone can play. The cost to play is minimal, most classes provide the paddles and balls that you need. So you just need to have a pair of gym shoes and you are all set.

Here are a few of the benefits for me:

• I am outside playing 1-2 times per week
• I am meeting new people
• I am learning completely new movement patterns
• I laugh every time I play

I urge you to give it a try. Just google “Pickleball Classes” in your area and find out how to get started. 

Here in Missoula, I started with a class at the Adult Education Center and that lead me to a great teacher and plenty of other beginners looking for a new adventure. 

Don’t knock it til you try it!
