With nearly five years of pickleball instruction and podium finishes at the 5.0+ level, I help athletes of all levels with skill development and strategic thinking. I’m open for one-on-one and group sessions. I can often find you a compatible lesson partner when schedules mesh. I have 25 years of fitness coaching experience with an expertise in injury reduction. I train and work with pickleball athletes on and off court. Pickleball is a footwork sport and I love teaching players the important details — whether it be technique or strategies for on court success. Your goals are my goals — I work to help you shine and be a force on court!

"I had a great experience learning pickleball from Coach Hegong Wei. With their clear and encouraging guidance, I was finally able to improve two areas I used to struggle with — my backhand and my smash. Both shots used to feel awkward , but he broke them down step by step, helped me correct my form, and gave me practical drills to build muscle memory. I used to lack confidence when switching to my backhand. Thanks to our lessons, I’ve made real progress and feel more well-rounded in my game. Each session was fun, focused, and tailored to my needs. Highly recommend for players who want to grow their skills.

Promptly after booking with me, you'll receive my welcome message and question: "Looking forward to your lesson. When you have a chance please let me know, in 2-3 sentences, about your pickleball, racquet sports, and/or other sports experience, and what you hope to learn/improve in your lesson(s)." Student responses help me to get right into and make the most of our time during their lesson. Then, based on my ongoing assessment during the lesson, I will customize the lessons to the student's level and learning style. My teaching style utilizes evidenced based skill acquisition approaches so students learn and retain task/goal oriented pickleball skills more naturally. Every shot in pickleball can be accomplished using a variety of techniques and no technique is "the right correct way." I can teach you the slice, top, push and lift dink, the overhead extreme angle put away, drive and drop and roll and flick volleys. How about the slice, top or lob serve. And, I can teach you how to hit deceptive shots too. I'm considered a power player with excellent finesse paddle skills. I can play right and left handed, hit dinks and half volleys between my legs and behind my back. If you want to pursue mastering pickleball and playing top level, even professional level, I'll get you to the highest level you aspire to the fastest!

I provide balls, and if needed, have paddles to borrow too. Bring your paddle if you have one, water, small towel, and wear light comfortable active wear plus non-marking court shoes that have good lateral support.
Coach Paul

Wear whatever you are most comfortable in… athletic/workout attire & tennis shoes. Recommend bringing a hat or sunglasses & a water bottle.

Lessons for kids are designed using a constraint-led approach and are conducted based on age of students. Age 8-under will incorporate more appropriate methods for their motor skill level, whereas 9 and older can incorporate more advanced skill learning.
Coach Jack
pickleball coach
I go much slower with younger children, as I’m cautious of how this could be someone’s first sport ever or well on their way to becoming a prodigy… either way, it’s an important experience and I take it seriously!
