We've got some big news for the TeachMe.To community
Ty Butson, one of the most charismatic and helpful creators in pickleball, is officially joining us as a sponsored TeachMe.To coach.
If you’ve seen Ty’s content before, you already know why we’re so excited. He’s a professional-level player who has a knack for making the sport approachable, fun, and easy to understand, and now, you’ll be seeing a lot more of him on our socials and across the TeachMe.To platform.
Ty has built a loyal audience by breaking the game down into simple, clear tips that help players improve quickly. Whether it’s through quick drills, tutorials, or insightful match breakdowns, his content makes pickleball feel accessible for players of all levels. That clarity and charisma are exactly what drew us to him.
And now, you can not only follow his journey, you can book a lesson with him and experience his coaching first-hand.
From Falling in Love with the Game to Playing Professionally
Ty’s journey in pickleball started like many great stories do, with a spark of curiosity that quickly turned into passion. From the moment he first picked up a paddle, he was hooked. That love for the sport has fueled everything he’s done since.
Over the years, Ty has developed into a high-level player with a 4.8 DUPR rating, which reflects his competitive skill and consistency on the court. He’s also a sponsored athlete with Selkirk, one of the most respected brands in pickleball, a testament to his level of play and the respect he’s earned within the community.
What stands out about Ty, though, isn’t just his playing ability. It’s the way he connects with people. Whether he’s drilling with a partner, breaking down a rally, or sharing a quick footwork tip, he makes the sport feel fun and approachable. That combination of expertise and warmth is rare, and it’s exactly what makes him a perfect fit for TeachMe.To.
Building a Community Through Content
About three years ago, Ty started sharing pickleball content online. What began as a way to share what he was learning quickly turned into something much bigger: a community of players who trust him to help them get better.
He focuses on quick drills, bite-sized tips, match breakdowns, and practical tutorials, content that fits easily into your day but delivers real value every time you watch. Over time, that approach has resonated with players at every level, from complete beginners to competitive amateurs looking for an edge.
Today, Ty has around 30,000 followers across Instagram, TikTok, and YouTube, and that number keeps growing. His videos stand out because they’re not just informative, they’re engaging, positive, and clear. You can watch one of his clips and immediately walk onto the court feeling more confident and capable.
It’s that ability to make people feel like they can do this, that they can get better, that made us so excited to bring him into the TeachMe.To family.
Why We Partnered With Ty
At TeachMe.To, our mission is to make learning new sports more personal, approachable, and effective. We believe everyone can discover the joy of learning when they have the right guidance, and Ty embodies that belief.
We decided to partner with Ty because of his upbeat personality, his gift for explaining and teaching pickleball, and his deep knowledge of the game. He brings energy and clarity to everything he does, and he has a natural ability to help people learn.
Another reason this partnership made sense is that Ty has already been integrating coaching into his workstream. He’s passionate about helping others succeed, and now, through TeachMe.To, he’ll have a new way to do exactly that, through personalized, 1-on-1 lessons with players who want to grow their game.
This collaboration isn’t just about having a recognizable face on our platform. It’s about amplifying the type of teaching and positivity we want the pickleball community to experience. And we know Ty will deliver that in spades.
