Learn pickleball! I'm a full time professor, and I've played pickleball for over 7 years.. I taught so many of our friends how to play that my wife said, you should give lessons.. So I became a certified instructor through the first pickleball organization, The International Pickleball Teaching Professional Association (IPTPA). I offer personalized instruction, built upon a foundation of effective strategies and skillful technique. Its super fun so you should join us!

"Today’s lesson with Jamie was quite helpful, especially focusing on solving problems with my backhand.

The focus on specific mechanics really helped me understand my game better, though I still see room for refinement.
