Paul
I started playing recreationally in local leagues and recreation centers in the Racine area in 2019 in preparation to be an "empty-nester." Through Covid and beyond, I got the "Pickleball bug" bad and began honing my skills through regular play. I thoroughly enjoy the game - whether it is competitive play or just a social game with friends. I have been a teacher for the past 27 years, and have many years of experience in coaching youth sports. I have introduced the game to many friends and colleagues along the way, and am confident that I can teach you the game - and more importantly - impart a passion for picking up the sport that so many people now enjoy."
"I really saw progress with Colin during the one-on-one exercises, especially when I was feeling sluggish. The focused attention helped me get better results on the court. If you want to improve your game with personalized coaching, Klay’s lessons are definitely worth trying out. A great way to sharpen your skills and build confidence in pickleball! 😊
Klay
My journey in racket sports began at 9, swiftly ascending the ranks as a junior to qualify for the prestigious New York State High School Championship. Transitioning to collegiate singles and later leagues in Chicago, I found my passion reignited when I stumbled upon Pickleball, relishing its social camaraderie and forging new friendships. Now, as an avid player and coach, I delight in sharing my expertise, ensuring every lesson is not just about improvement but about relishing the court's thrill. Let's ace your goals together, one match at a time! For fellow Tennis players, I played tennis for 40 years, and was a tournament player and teaching pro for tennis during college. A lot of tennis players move over to pickle and that makes sense, but there are some key differences in the games, both with the way you swing and in strategy, things you should know and can learn pretty quickly on court. I'm here to help.
"My first lesson with Kirk was quite helpful, especially since he covered some key techniques that really stuck with me, though I still see plenty of room for improvement. Still, that lesson laid a good foundation, and I’m hopeful about refining my skills further with his guidance. If you’re thinking about giving pickleball lessons a try, Kirk’s a pretty solid option to consider.

"Oh, I guess I’ll give this lesson with Jonathan a pretty good mark. I shared what I wanted to work on, and he gave me straightforward advice and practical feedback, which really helped. Still, I think I need a few more lessons to feel completely confident, though, so I’ll probably try to keep improving with him.

Francisco
*Indoor court rentals available for $25!* After a lifetime in tennis (and ping pong, badminton, squash) I was finally bitten by the pickleball bug and my passion for the sport has only grown. My beginner students can expect a fun learning environment in a casual setting. For those looking to up their game, power strokes, volley smashes and vicious spins are a session away. Intermediate player looking to refine their game? Let’s get drilling. I’ll happily rally and match play with you after. Regardless of your goals, let’s get out there and pickle!
