I’ve been playing pickleball for 3 years and have spent the past 2 years with VCU’s pickleball club, serving as a captain both years. I’ve led practice drills and worked individually with teammates on form, technique, positioning, and identifying areas they can improve. I especially enjoy breaking down technique in a way that’s easy to understand and adapting how I teach based on the player. Whether you’re completely new to pickleball or an intermediate player looking to clean up your game, my goal is to help you understand not just what to change, but why it works. As I build my student base on TeachMe.To, I’m offering introductory rates for my first students — a great opportunity to get personalized coaching at a lower starting price.

"Cai offered to play music during this lesson, which added a fun element to an already fun time! He has been great about keeping things just on the edge of my ability level so I'm always challenged but not overwhelmed, and gently encourages me to notice & work on where I can take on harder shots. I'm really enjoying my lessons & the game overall. Thanks Cai!

Hi. My name is Morgan "Coach Quinn". I've been playing Pickleball since 2016. In 2018, I started helping people learn this great sport by developing a comprehensive beginners class. In 2021 I became a PCI instructor, and in 2022 I became a IPTPA Certified Instructor. In 2021, I established a free group for beginners to play, allowing you to continue learning after taking my classes. Additionally, I also constructed my own picklball court in my yard to assist you in improving your skills at a time that suits your schedule. I look forward to helping you learn Pickleball.
