About your pickleball coach
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!

Beginner training plan
Your first lessonWe kickoff our time together discussing the basic court layout, a few rules and equipment basics as needed. I go over grip options and play begins with simple stroke mechanics and how to control the ball better with ideal contact points and body control. We go over serving cause ya gotta serve to score and if viable, go over basic court positioning by playing some points!
Lesson 11+My strength is in listening to the requests of a client. I can often see where a client can improve very quickly by hitting a few balls. I teach the same techniques being used by professional players that help players become more consistent, confident and efficient. I teach modern pickleball.
Lesson 4-10Player goals define the lesson, as now they’re learning where the growth opportunities lie. Backhand form is a common request. Spin - how to apply, read and react to different types of spin. How to defend against hard driven balls. How to be more aggressive in serving — these are all typical requests.
Lesson 2-3Player goals define the lesson! If a beginner has played a few games, we can start refining serve and return mechanics and strategies. We go over the importance of court positioning and the need to hit shots from a variety of locations and positions. Stroke mechanics like eliminating backswing and how to volley may be introduced.
Advanced training plan
Your first lessonThe player drives the lesson, especially as they become more advanced. I recently had a client medal in their first 4.5 tournament, after 4-5 lessons working on specific offensive weapons.
Lesson 4-10I’m not a singles player, I was taught the singles game by Zane Navratil, but I’m not a good coach for anyone wanting competitive singles advice!
Lesson 2-3Player goals dictate the sessions! I am a strong topspin, volley roll, forehand and defensive player. I have a strong serve. I have personally had over 50 lessons for pickleball from pro player coaches, like Zane Navratil. I’m also highly detailed.
Youth players
Working with teenagersYoung athletes can put details into action quickly. With a young player, we break down technical aspects into finite details so they’re able to replicate the form for continued future growth. They will be challenged to replicate movements verbatim if they are looking to be a competitive player. Players looking for basics/fun has a relaxed vibe.
What you need to bringWear proper shoes and athletic clothing. Bring water and a towel. Please let me know if you will need a paddle. Be prepared for physical activity by warming up before the lesson.
What I can bringAll equipment needed for a session will be provided.
