"Coming from a competitive background in combat sports ,pickleball has become my new passion. I recently started competing again and I needed that some one to help me get to the next level. After my time playing with Coach Manny, he has picked my game apart and helped me understand what is useful and disregard what is not. After today’s lesson I feel not just 1% better but I have a complete better understanding of pickleball and the drills have exploited my weakness and turned them into improving strengths.

"Adan's lesson was quite helpful, especially the way he broke down shot placement and footwork. Although I still need to refine my backhand, I appreciated his focus on practical drills. Still, I feel more confident about my game now and might try another lesson soon.
Adan
Ty Schowe’s coaching journey began somewhat by chance, but his competitive drive has shaped it into something much more. After years of private lessons with a top level tennis pro in Colorado, his natural teaching ability led him from a stressful college poker career to becoming a full-time teaching professional under one of the sport’s best mentors. His passion for competition, rooted in childhood hockey and soccer championships, instilled a deep appreciation for precision, discipline, and daily practice—principles he applied to coaching. He transformed youth high-performance programs, built elite junior training systems, and refined strategy and movement for players of all levels. Five years ago, he discovered pickleball and quickly saw the gaps in player development. Even advanced players lacked a true system for training, leaving critical skills like minimizing unforced errors, reading the court, and strengthening the mental game untapped. Now, on a mission to change that—he's bringing a structured, high-performance approach to the sport, helping players realize their full potential, and making winning feel almost unfair. With pickleball evolving, those who train with purpose are rising to the top— so there’s no better time to begin your growth.
"I loved practicing the form needed for each type of stance and shot.
