About Richard

Beyond the playful name, pickleball is a game of strategy, agility, and finesse – all things I love to teach! With 5 years of experience playing at a competitive level, I bring a deep understanding of the game and a passion for sharing it. Let's work together to elevate your pickleball game and unlock your full potential on the court.

What students say...

"Richard's first lesson was quite thorough, and I appreciated how he balanced covering all the rules with actually playing the ball around, which kept things engaging. Though, I think with a bit more movement and smoother hits, it could become even more effective. Still, it was a good experience and I’d consider trying Richard again for his knowledge and enthusiasm.

About Brendan

I got into pickleball after a few friends dragged me along to play. Now I’m hooked and absolutely love playing. I have taught many friends and newcomers how to play and excited to teach you.

What students say...

"Brendan's lesson was quite helpful, especially in refining my dink shot technique, which I’d been struggling with. He explained how foot positioning can really make a difference, though I still have some work to do. Still, I’m optimistic about applying the tips he shared and hoping to improve further soon. If you’re looking to fine-tune specific skills, it’s worth giving Brendan a try.

Josue Marin profile
About Josue

In just over a year of playing, I proudly reached a 4.0 rating in pickleball. My journey showcases not only my dedication but also my quick grasp of the game's nuances. I'm eager to share this passion with you, making our time on the court both enjoyable and instructional as we delve into the world of pickleball together.

What students say...

"That lesson was quite helpful, especially working on drop shots and corners, definitely a step forward for my game. Josue's focus on simulating a real 1:1 match gave me useful practice, and I’m hopeful to build on that. Still, I think I’ll need more time to master those tricky corners and drop shots, but I appreciate the tailored approach he took. If you’re looking to sharpen specific skills, I’d suggest giving Josue a try.
