Private Lessons & Coaches in Bermuda Run, NC

With two years of pickleball instruction, I guide players to elevate their skills. My experience as a high rated player informs my approach. I foster growth in a supportive environment. Fun is the middle name of pickleball although I work hard at helping players of all skill levels maximize their strengths and mitigate their weaknesses. I draw from my mastery of table tennis, tennis, squash, racquetball, and soccer.

"The lesson with Jean-jacques was quite good, especially because I learned what I’d been missing in my technique. Though I need to get better overall, I appreciated the focus on specific aspects of my game. Still, I think I’ll benefit from more lessons to really improve those areas. It’s been a solid step forward, and I’d encourage others to give Jean-jacques a try if you're looking to hone your pickleball skills.

Golf has been a part of my life for more than 3 decades. As an avid junior golfer, I won a club championship, made all conference my sophomore - senior year in high school. I was a part of 2 regional championship teams as well as an 11th place and 7th place finish in high school state championships. From a young age it’s been my passion. Now that I’m in corporate America being able to use my talents to help win numerous charity benefits and raise money for many great causes has been more than fulfilling. I’ve seen the game evolve from wooden drivers and shot shaping course management to now teeing it high and letting it fly. One of the best benefits about golf is not only can you enjoy the game your entire life but you can find satisfaction in the game no matter your skill level. So if you're just a beginner looking to dip your toes in the water, or if you’ve been playing golf for a long time and feel like you’ve plateaued and you’ll never get better, or maybe you're just tired of letting your buddies get in your wallet. Whatever the skill level, whatever the reason, I want to help you achieve the satisfaction and enjoyment that golf has to offer.

"Had the best time! Would def book again

Hi, I’m Ava Hrastar—a current professional tennis player and recent Division I college graduate(Auburn University) with about 15 years of experience on the court. Tennis has been a lifelong passion, and through years of training, competing, and growing as an athlete, I’ve developed not only my game but also a deep understanding of what it takes to succeed—both physically and mentally. I’m excited to share that passion and knowledge with others.

"Ava's lesson was quite effective. Her attentiveness stood out, and her instructions felt clear and confident, making me feel optimistic about getting back in the game. Still, I hope we can continue to improve my front, backslice, and serve as we go along. If you're after a coach who really pays attention to the details and keeps lessons engaging, Ava might be worth trying.
