Esteban
25 year veteran coach, trainer, physical education teacher and motivational speaker with Positive Coaching Alliance. The priority goal to empower adolescents to become the best athletes they can be. With emphasis on self-growth and mastery, I coach and instruct with a dual goal of building the athlete and the individual as a whole; including self-mastery, overcoming self-doubt, fears, negative self talk, obstacles and physical challenges. I currently privately train my young athletes on a one to one basis and in small group. My strengths include player growth and development, especially for those that are newer to the game and learning; those searching for more reps and personally tailored training when club/ team/ center activities don't afford them that opportunity. Thriving in this helps build self-confidence, becoming and growing as a competitor with all the pressure and challenges that entails. I am very much into the physical development (strength and conditioning) of my athletes as well. I have a background in personal training and continue to work independently as a trainer and PT. This combination with my career in physical education has helped me fine tune workouts and practices that develop a well-rounded, physically conditioned athlete. As a multi-sport athlete and life-long advocate of all things health and fitness related, I believe in practicing what I preach. The greatest example to my clients is to model the traits and behaviors they can admire. To this day, I brim with energy and positivity and want to continue bringing this to the coaching position.
"Serving and accuracy greatly improved.

Hi I’m Rick a Level 1 Professional Pickleball Registry Certified Coach who loves helping players unlock “lightbulb moments” on the court. I work with all ages and skill levels, from true beginners who have never picked up a paddle to developing players looking to add strategy, consistency, and confidence to their game.

I’m big on fundamentals, proper technique, and injury-prevention, and I’ll make sure you leave every session feeling more skilled, more confident, and more in love with pickleball than when you arrived.

If you’re serious about your game, you’re in the right place. I specialize in developing players who want more than just drills. My training focuses on game situations, decision-making, and building skills that actually show up when it matters. Players I’ve worked with have elevated their handle, improved their shot, and gained the confidence to compete at the next level—including pros preparing to play overseas. Every workout has purpose. Every rep has intent. Every session moves you forward.
"Kenu motivated me throughout my workout especially when I was tired. He helped me in my weak points in ball handling with my off hand, strong passes, and footwork while I was dribbling. Overall a really awesome and down to earth dude.

I train players of all ages and levels, ranging from elementary school to collegiate players. As a former NCAA DI goalkeeper, I prioritize simplistic, practical drills over flashiness. My private sessions begin with a technical and agility warm-up, before gradually increasing to game-realistic drills. Every training is individualized, meeting the unique needs of each player. I strive to give athletes skills which carry beyond a single session, leading to improvement in club/school environments.
"Alexis is fun and engaging. My 12-year-old daughter really enjoyed the lesson and is excited to continue training with her as she improves in the sport she loves.

"The lesson with Alex was very good, I don’t expect dramatic changes overnight I appreciated how he explained some key aspects of my swing clearly, which got me thinking differently about my approach. I might need a little more practice, but I think I’ll see progress if I keep working at it. If you're looking to improve your basics, Alex's lesson is worth trying.

"Gustavo's lesson stood out because of the great personalized approach, making me feel comfortable and understood right away though there's still room to improve. The tailored methods helped clarify some tricky parts of my game, and I appreciated the calm, measured way he explained things. Still, I hope he continues refining his techniques to make each lesson even more effective. I’d definitely be interested in trying another session.
