I'm an ambassador for Six Zero Pickleball and currently a 4.5 DUPR rated player. My tennis, ping pong, and badminton backgrounds have helped me transition into pickleball rather easily. (I guess it's a "racquet sports" thing) I primarily play at Plummer Family Park in Edwardsville, IL and the Rally Club indoor facility in Glen Carbon, IL where I'm a member. I also play in a handful of tournaments each year where I've been fortunate enough to typically medal in those tournaments. I enjoy helping people at all levels understand the basic fundamentals of pickleball, explaining strategies and tactics, as well as discussing the pros and cons of different types of equipment you should be using (paddles, shoes, sunglasses, etc).
"Curt is very patient and a great teacher. Very easy to get along with and sense of humor. I feel like he wants to help me get better and will work with his students to get them where they want to be

Nathan
As a former USPTA teaching professional, I bring proven coaching performance to the fast changing world of pickleball. Whether you’re picking up a paddle for the first time or looking to add a 3rd shot DRIP or backhand flick to your arsenal, I’ll guide your improvement every step of the way. I specialize in meeting each player exactly where they are, and improve or build solid fundamentals through unique stroke mechanic check points. The session pace is always comfortable, encouraging, and challenging. As a senior player, I understand the unique considerations that come with starting or improving later in life, though I genuinely enjoy working with players of every age and skill level. When you book with me, you can count on plenty of balls, paddles (if needed), and a reserved space where we can focus entirely on your improvement without distractions. During the cold months (November through March) I teach at Missouri Pickleball Club in Fenton, or Missouri Pickleball Club—Ellisville. I enjoy group lessons, so book with one, two, or three friends and lower the price per student cost. I will teach at other locations if a court can be reserved and the student handles making the reservation.

"Oh, hey, so far, my first tennis lesson with Jerry was quite helpful. The focus on the basics felt pretty solid, and I appreciated the no-pressure vibe during the lesson. Honestly, the lesson highlighted the importance of good foundations, which I think will help me overall. I’m optimistic about how it’s going. I think trying out more lessons could really cement those fundamentals. If you’re after someone who keeps it practical and approachable, Jerry definitely is worth a shot.

"First golf lesson ever. I was hitting the ball better than I ever have after one simple tip I was given. I actually hit my 7 iron 160 yards with a 5 yard draw and the first time I did it I said “wow I’ve never felt that before”. Can’t beat the feeling.
