About Kari

Hello, I'm a dedicated pickleball coach with a rich history in the sport. I proudly hold a PPR certification for over two years. I have consistently played at the 4.5 level for the last four years. My dedication extends beyond personal accolades. I've been teaching at our local courts, offering lessons to budding players. With me, you'll master the essentials, from the correct paddle grip and game rules to serving, returning, dinking drills, and understanding the basic mechanics. Let's work together and boost your confidence on the court! In 2024, I co-captained and played on both women's and mixed APPL league teams. BOTH women's and mixed took first place at the state finals championship for 4.5 50+ division.

What students say...

"Honestly, Kari’s lesson really stood out. She’s quite knowledgeable and easy to connect with, breaking down tricky movements into simple steps. I left with a better grasp of some complex shots, and yeah, I definitely feel more confident on the court now. If you’re looking for a lesson that’s thoughtful and tailored, Kari’s a good pick.

About Rian

Hi, I’m Rian Weston-Dodds, I’ve been playing for over 5 years now coaching for about 2. I’ve had a career high DUPR rating of over 5.0 and have coached at various locations including Picklemall, Life Time, the Picklr, and now soon Dink and Dine. I'm PPR certified, with 70 matches logged in DUPR from leagues and tournaments. I specialize in helping beginners players get a handle on the game, and also the intermediate players with strategy and technical aspects. I look forward to working with you on the court! At the moment, the Mountainside Fitness on Frank Lloyd Wright is the easiest way to get a an indoor court during the summer, free for members and only $10 for non members. It is on a basketball court but it works fine for practice. Otherwise, The Orchard Indoor Pickleball Private Event Venue by Talking Stick resort is also a good option for a rentable, authentic indoor court. But it does cost $30 for an hour. If you have your own private court let me know, otherwise many public courts get busy in the early mornings and afternoons but often times Ashler Hills usually has an open court.

What students say...

"Rian is a fantastic coach who offers clear and practical advice during our pickleball lessons. I enjoyed how he adjusts strategies on the spot to help improve the game. His guidance really helped me play better and feel more confident on the court. If you want to develop your skills in a supportive way, Rian’s lessons are definitely worth trying.

First I will ask you about your strengths and weaknesses and if there’s something in particular that you want to work on. Normally I start almost every lesson with a few points of skinny singles to identify any strengths and weaknesses and what we should work on. From there I will give you a few tips and then run some drills to work on them. Throughout the lesson I will continue to give you tips as I identify ideas to help with your game, and we may adjust the drills but still mainly focusing on one particular skill.
