"Amazing first lesson. Made drills interesting and fun while also challenging questions regarding the mental aspects of the game. Just what I need!

Tennis has been my lifelong passion, from learning under my grandmother to playing in high school and college. Inspired by a need to correct misconceptions, I started teaching. The personalized approach makes my coaching unique—I focus on your individual style, goals, and preferences before diving into techniques. Tennis isn't just a game; it's about empowerment and joy. I love seeing beginners achieve their first victories. Let's hit the courts together and make your tennis journey a celebration of success and enjoyment!

"Coach Milton is not only extremely knowledgeable but also tuned in to the psychology and needs of young kids. My 10 years old daughter received a lot of encouragement and improvement under the Coaches care.

I'm a dynamic sports enthusiast with a knack for leadership and a passion for competition. From college tennis to captaining a 4.5 Men's League team in Phoenix, I've thrived in various athletic arenas. As a head coach for high school volleyball and captain for advanced adult volleyball teams, I've honed my skills on and off the court. I compete daily with top-rated players in pickleball, securing victories like the AZ vs. Las Vegas Asian doubles tournament. Beyond my successes, I've also shared my expertise, teaching and mentoring others, including my sister, who has risen to become the #1 female pickleball player in Asia.

"My 5 year old wanted to learn to play & he loved it. Rustin made it fun for him & we could see improvement with the first lesson.

After working at my local golf course growing up, I went through the PGA Golf Management program at New Mexico State University. From there I started working as teaching professional at Golf Made simple teaching 3 day classes to 4 golfers at a time. I’m Then promoted to Lead instructor trainer teaching the new instructors how to properly teach and coach classes. Now I teach full time at several different venues.

I’m known for my patience and intuition, which helps me tailor lessons precisely to your needs and goals.

"The right type of teaching method I need.

With 18 years immersed in volleyball and 9 years of coaching experience between private & semi-private lessons, recreational and Club volleyball, I look forward to helping all levels reach their potential and personal goals! I offer private volleyball lessons for beginner to intermediate athletes who want to build strong fundamentals, improve confidence, and elevate their overall game. While I specialize in setting and libero training, I coach all positions and tailor each session to the athlete’s individual needs and goals. My training approach combines technical skill development, game awareness, and agility, strength, and conditioning to help players become well-rounded and game-ready. I use a wide range of professional training equipment—including targets, passing trainers, setter and hitter tools, and portable pop-up nets—to create engaging, effective sessions whether we’re in a gym or training on the go. I offer one-on-one and small group lessons, allowing for focused instruction and personalized feedback. My goal is to help athletes grow not just as volleyball players, but as confident competitors who understand the game and enjoy the process of improving.

"As a parent, I couldn't be more grateful for everything Coach AJ has done for my daughter and the entire team. Since joining the club, my daughter's skills, confidence, and understanding of the game have grown tremendously. AJ has challenged her to work hard, believe in herself, and continue improving every day. What stands out the most is the culture she has created. There is healthy competition that encourages every player to earn their position while still supporting and celebrating one another. The girls are pushed to be their best without feeling like they're competing against each other in a negative way. Coach AJ has also built a positive atmosphere for the parents. Communication is clear, expectations are consistent, and there is a strong emphasis on respect, teamwork, and good sportsmanship. It truly feels like everyone is working toward the same goal of helping the girls grow as athletes and as people. We are so thankful for the time, dedication, and GREAT passion AJ brings to every practice and tournament. If you're looking for a coach who develops skills, builds confidence, and creates a positive team culture, I highly recommend Coach AJ or Club VOS at Tempe where she coaches.

I've been playing Pickleball for close to 20 years and didn't have anyone to teach me back then except other players so I formed some bad habits. Some of those I have fixed but still in the process of breaking the rest. I can teach new folks the game and coach players that are looking to become a better player by breaking some old habits while acquiring some beneficial ones.
