These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.


My coaching philosophy is simple: every session should be as enjoyable as it is instructive, no matter your skill level. I take pride in introducing newcomers to the world of pickleball and relish in the opportunity to elevate the game for those looking to step up their play. I've had the pleasure of teaching with the fantastic team at Reaxn Pickleball, right at the Burbank Tennis Center, as well as various other Rec Centers. My goal is always the same – to make sure that fun and improvement go hand in hand for everyone. So, whether you're picking up a paddle for the first time or aiming to dominate the court, I'm here to make it happen. Let's dive into this journey together!
"Gary was exactly what we were looking for in an instructor: Friendly, knowledgeable, and able to instill a genuine interest in a new sport. My son and I enjoyed the lessons, improved quickly under his guidance, and are ready to start finding court times to keep it us as a new hobby to share. Thanks, Gary!

"Coach Leyden helped me develop better front-row techniques, encouraging me to block and spike with confidence. He also made sure I played both front and back row positions, believing I could be successful at both and always balancing my practice to improve all my skills.
