"The lesson with Rhavie was quite helpful in drilling different hits with top and back spins, which I found quite useful, and the returning serve practice was still beneficial. Although I still have some work to do on applying spins across various shots, I feel more confident about those techniques now. Still, I’d be interested in seeing future lessons explore even more spin strategies. If you’re curious about improving your pickleball game without a lot of fuss, Rhavie’s approach might be worth trying.

I’m a 3.8 DUPR player, and what makes me a great coach is that I keep it fun 🤩! If you’re not having fun, you won’t want to play. With me, lessons are fun, safe, and focused on helping you grow—both on and maybe even off the court. I enjoy working with players of all ages and skill levels, but I specialize in helping new and entry-level players (2.5–3.0) build confidence and fall in love with the game.

"If you are looking for a pickleball coach who is professional, kind, patient and with strong pickleball skills, you don’t need to look any further. I highly recommend Dennis from TeachMe. Before working with Coach Dennis, my kitchen dinking skill and groundstrokes were poor and inconsistent. I struggled with understanding court strategy. Thanks Dennis’s guidances and specific drills, I've improved my forehand and backhand techniques especially in the kitchen zone. I feel much more confident in game situations. I really appreciated Dennis ‘s patient teaching style and ability to break down complex strategies into simple, actionable steps. Dennis was always prepared and made every session fun and engaging. I highly recommend Dennis to any beginner to intermediate plus level players who is looking to elevate their skills and game! Chloe

My ideal student(s) is one who is looking to "level up" their game. I offer one on one instructions or group of all age and skill levels. I utilize a Titan One ball machine for hitting sessions and also offer video recording of drill sessions with Ai shot analytics using the Swing Vision platform. A very popular program is 3 (or 4) and Me where I either watch and critique your match play in real time or even mix in during play to get advanced game strategies offered and critiqued. Please reach out to discuss options.
