Hi, I’m Saraa! I’ve been hooked on pickleball since 2021, and I play competitively at the 4.0–4.5 level (soon to be 4.5–5.0!). My true passion, though, is coaching adult beginners and helping people fall in love with this amazing sport. My coaching style is all about keeping things fun while building real skills and strategy. I believe in learning by playing, cheering each other on, and letting passion lead the way. Whether your goal is to keep up with friends, join a league, or just enjoy a new hobby, I’ll meet you where you’re at and help you grow from there. One of my favorite things about pickleball is how welcoming it is—anyone can jump in and play, no matter their athletic background. Yet at the same time, there’s always room to improve and challenge yourself. Plus, the community is second to none—you’ll leave the court with new friends and a big smile. My go-to shot is the two-handed backhand drive (the “twoie”), and right now I’m working on nailing my backhand roll. Fun fact: I grew up in Coeur d’Alene, Idaho—home of Selkirk Sport—so I’ll always be a Selkirk girl at heart!
"Getting more comfortable with the volley and serve, I think Saraa's lesson really helped fine-tune those parts of my game, and I'm hopeful about perfecting my skills further.
Saraa

"Ryan was a great coach for my two daughters who just started golfing. His knowledge of the important fundamentals and his ability to teach them was very good. Even more impressive was his patience and kind demeanor which for two young children makes all the difference in developing a passion and the enjoyment of the sport. When your 8 year old celebrates with high fives all around after making her first one-putt on her first ever golf outing, you know you’ve made a great decision with Ryan.

"Coach Milli coach my son during soccer shots. His energy and experience enhanced the joy in soccer for my son

My service stands out because you don’t have to pay top dollar to put an emphasis on 1 on 1 teaching. That’s my bread and butter. Being a certified personal trainer I bring more aspects into my lessons to further tap into my athletes talent and work ethic. You don't pay seperate for the personal trainer. I correlate the skill work and physical training together. I played varsity 3 of 4 years in High School. I have multiple Babe Ruth League state titles and played collegiately for 2 years and was a win away from the college World Series. I know how good baseball is played and what it looks like. I break down the fundamentals of the game to help their skill set grow exponentially. Whether it's infield, outfield, on the pitchers mound or in the batters box, when the fundamentals become basic nature, it leaves all the room in the world for the talent to take over. Baseball is such a mental sport as well. I've read numerous books about not only techniques physically, but techniques mentally. That knowledge either isn’t passed on, or it costs an arm and a leg to get. I enjoy helping people get the most out of themselves. I enjoy spending time teaching the younger generation about the sport I grew up loving and still love. I enjoy being a good influence and passing on my knowledge to the younger generation. I'm passionate about fostering a love for baseball in every student I teach. With 16+ years of playing experience, and my 8+ years of coaching experience, I bring a deep understanding of the game and a dedication to helping players reach their full potential. I’ve seen and trained all types of athletes. Let's step up to the plate and make this season your best yet!

Sam
I'm a self-taught golfer with 35 years of playing experience. I'm excited to help beginning and intermediate players learn enough about the game to be excited and comfortable to head to the course and have fun with friends!
"Jason gave lessons to my husband and I and was patient, had very helpful tips and seemed to genuinely want us to get better. His approach was perfect for us, as we are getting back to the sport after a long break. His experience shows and he has been able to break that down into easy to understand teaching points and techniques. We'll be booking more lessons! Thanks, Jason!
