Private Pickleball Lessons & Coaches in Vineyards, FL

Having had a life long passion for racquet sports (Certified Tennis PTR coach 20+ years and national tournament player in Platform Tennis), I was delighted to discover Pickleball 10 years ago when I moved to Naples, Florida. I was fortunate enough to win the Gold Medal in my first Men’s Open Tournament at Veterans Park. A couple of years later, I also won a gold at the US Open. Competing and playing Pickleball for exercise is so exhilarating and addictive. I met so many new players along the way who have asked me to help start them safely or improve their mid level games. I truly enjoy coaching and received my Pickleball IPTPA Teachers certification in 2017.

"I loved working with Todd because he is a great coach who makes learning pickleball both fun and effective. The session was well-paced and clear, perfect for building confidence on the court. If you’re looking to improve your skills, I definitely recommend trying Todd’s lessons. They’re a great way to boost your game and enjoy the sport more!

"I started playing pickle with some friends of mine and decided quickly that I love it! I met Miles in a restaurant and he told me he was a coach so I decided to give him a try. I laughed and learned so much in such a short amount of time… his smile and sun tan keeps me coming back! I wonder if he is single… 😊

Pickleball has been my passion for years, and I love sharing my knowledge and enthusiasm with others. I believe everyone can enjoy the sport, and I'm committed to helping my students develop their skills and confidence on the court.

"He did a great job sharing his time between me and my wife/catering to our individual goals! He was helpful, patient, and encouraging to both of us. It was the perfect balance of learning and being challenged. Thank you!

I started playing tennis at 11 years old. Among this sport also ping pong was my favorite. I met Pickleball 4 years ago and it seemed a natural combination between the two. Just easier to mastering.

Recently I achieved the Level II from PPR and then I joined IPTPA obtaining the Level I & II Professional Coach Certification.
