About your pickleball coach
An energetic certified PPR Pickleball coach & player — Beginners → Intermediate. Teach new and developing players reliable technique, court strategy, and confident shot-making in a fun, low-pressure environment. Focus: fundamentals (serve/return, dinking, third-shot drop), movement, partner play and smart tactics. All ages welcome. Group, private, and semi-private lessons. Coaching philosophy: Progress is fastest when lessons are small, measurable, and immediately useful in game situations. I teach with clear cues, video when helpful, and lots of short, focused reps that build muscle memory without boring you.
