About your pickleball coach
Co host of TV show and podcast Who Dinks Wins, I believe Pickleball’s popularity is fuelled by fun. And my Introduction To Pickleball, Beginner and Advanced Beginner courses are designed to reflect my ethos that if you’re playing, you’re learning. My classes are light on skills, and big on play with the objective to get all Picklers playing games as soon as possible. Starting with coaching on footwork, gripping paddles and striking a ball, my classes cover; Forehand Backhand Serve Slicing & Dicing Dinking Volleying Scoring Court craft & tactics. My goal is to get every Pickler ready for their level in the Pickleball wilds by the end of his course.

I went from novice to 3.0 within 18 months and played in my first tournament thanks to Beri’s incredible coaching. He believes in refining your game through play, not tedious drills, which makes it fun. He has an uncanny ability to tweak the smallest things that amount to incredible differences which you will bring to your game. Whether a beginner or intermediate player, if you want coaching to be fun as well fulfilling he’s definitely the one! Can’t recommend him highly enough.

Beri is an amazing coach. He teaches pickleball very differently from any other coach. He explains the basics and then off you go playing. There aren’t any boring drills. He critiques shots as they are played and gives alternate actions and how to have gone about them. I’ve taken several sessions with him, always making sure to ask only for him for classes. I’ve had great fun and have come to love pickleball because of Beri. He is very funny and brings a lot of positive energy always finding a way to spin everything in a positive light for better learning. He’s very patient as well. Highly recommend!

Beri has coached me on and off for two years. He has a kind manner which is very encouraging and has been able to identify how to enable me to change something in my game for me to progress. I would thoroughly recommend him as a coach.

Coach Beri has helped my pickleball game immensely. He has given expert guidance, and shows considerable patience, and encouragement. I discovered pickleball on a trip to the states and over the last few years have developed from a beginner to an intermediate player. Small suggestions like taking a beat, once I have said the score, to serve has made a huge difference.
Taking a mental approach to the game has assisted when entering competitions and I only wish he lived closer so that I could get more tips!
In addition to the coaching, listening to the Who Dinks Wins podcast has been invaluable. The discussions around a variety of pickleball related subjects are easy to listen to and always offer great insights.
Receiving coaching from someone who has a passion for the game and thrives on seeing people improve- I would have no hesitation in recommending Coach Beri to assist your game.
