Hi there, I’m a former varsity tennis player and have shifted to playing pickleball over the years! After being asked for tips and being approached about lessons during open plays, I’ve decided to dedicate more time to coaching. I’d be happy to teach anyone from complete beginners up to 3.0s. My main goals are to be patient and encouraging while we get you ready to beat your friends or podium at a tournament :)

Hi, I’m Coach Sean! I’m a patient, encouraging pickleball coach who helps beginners and intermediate players build confidence and develop strong fundamentals. My lessons are fun, supportive, and personalized to your goals. I offer both individual and group lessons, creating an engaging environment where players can learn, practice, and improve together. I break each skill down into simple steps and provide clear, practical feedback so you understand not only what to do, but why it works. We can work on serving, returns, groundstrokes, volleys, kitchen play, court positioning, doubles strategy, and overall consistency. I enjoy coaching kids, teenagers, adults, and seniors. Whether you have never picked up a paddle, are learning with a group, or want to take your game to the next level, I’ll meet you where you are and help you make noticeable progress while enjoying the process. Let’s get on the court and improve your game!
"Sean is very clear with his instructions. He explains exactly what you need to know without being overly verbose and demonstrates well. Some people spend so much time explaining that you don't get much chance to practice, but Sean provides the right balance. If you mess up, he doesn't immediately stop you to re-explain because he understands you need to keep practicing before you can do what he said. Some people keep stopping you to keep re-explaining, preventing you from continuing to try to actually do what they instructed. Sean is good about letting you know what you did right and *how* you did something wrong. He always provides encouraging feedback.
