Private Lessons & Coaches in Aloha, OR

About Me - I’m Danielle, a pickleball coach based in Oregon City. Pickleball, for me, is about the joy of moving, learning, and having fun together. I teach locally outdoors and in Troutdale for indoor lessons. Approach - I’ve spent six years creating a supportive, low-pressure learning space where players can grow at their own pace. Who I Coach - I work primarily with women of all ages and body types and athletic ability who want to learn with a growth mindset and kindness toward themselves. How Lessons Work - Each session is tailored to you. We choose one technical and one tactical skill to focus on, start with some rallying, and build from there. My Why - If you’re ready to learn, laugh, and grow, I’d love to help you take your next step on the court.

"I am blind in one eye but still really wanted to learn this game. With no depth perception, Danielle was able to help me learn the drills and skills to develop strong compensations in reading and responding to the ball. Her approach has helped me in leaps and bounds.

I’m Wayne Mendezona, Head Men’s Basketball Coach at Corban University and founder of Quick Handle Basketball. I’ve spent over 30+ years developing athletes and have trained more than 50,000 players—from youth to college and professional levels. I specialize in ball handling, scoring, and game performance—helping athletes build confidence, decision-making, and real in-game results. My training is not just drills—it’s about developing complete players who can perform under pressure, think the game, and separate themselves from the competition. I don’t train average. I train athletes who are serious about growth, discipline, and competing at a higher level. If that’s you, let’s get to work.

"My son said Coach Mendo was far and away the most effective coach he's ever worked with! His knowledge, tools, and willingness to share wisdom are incredible. I've never seen my son so impressed by a coach or heard him so enthusiastic about what he learned in a session. Very grateful!
