"Coach JJ is awesome, very nice with my 10 years old and he gives him all the time he needs to learn and master each skill. We are really happy having classes with him

Stuck at 2.5–3.5? I specialize in individualized pickleball lessons for players who want to break through their plateau and build a strong, reliable foundation. Many players reach 2.5–3.5 simply by playing more. But eventually, experience alone stops working. Their shots stay inconsistent—and often they don’t understand why. That’s where I come in. Every lesson is customized to identify what is really holding your game back and rebuild the foundation behind it. I don’t just teach HOW to hit a shot. You’ll understand: WHY the shot works WHEN to use it WHAT to do in different situations HOW to execute it consistently Even within the HOW, you’ll learn the principles behind the technique—not just copy a motion—so you can recognize mistakes, make adjustments, and improve independently. My approach: Assess → Understand → Fix → Practice → Apply We focus only on what your game actually needs—whether that’s your serve, return, drive, drop, dink, reset, footwork, positioning, or shot selection. New to pickleball? You’re welcome too. Build the right foundation from day one so you can progress faster and avoid habits that become harder to fix later. Understand Your Game. Build Your Foundation. Level Up.

"I’ve been working with Logan for about two months, and I’ve seen a significant improvement in my pickleball game in that time. He’s extremely patient and does a great job teaching the fundamentals rather than just focusing on drills or technique. I especially appreciate that he explains the reasoning behind why things are done a certain way, which has helped me understand the game on a much deeper level. Logan never makes me feel rushed, and he’s always willing to take the time to make sure I actually understand and feel comfortable with what we’re working on. You can tell that he’s genuinely dedicated to coaching and to helping his students improve. I’m really glad I found him and would highly recommend him to anyone looking to improve their pickleball skills!

These days, I've immersed myself in coaching pickleball, drawing from my rich tennis background to nurture and elevate players in this exciting game. Unlike many other coaches I earned a California State Bachelors degree which included a fifth year California State Teaching Credential. This training has given me the special skills to teach and coach my students at all levels of the game. It’s my passion. I recently won the Gold Medal 🏅in the Mixed Doubles at the Tri-Valley Pickle Ball Championships.
