"Bryan was great at teaching to two different skill levels in the same lesson. He made a new sport very approachable to one, and helped bring a former player back into the groove. He taught at a great pace, and overall made the experience fun and enjoyable.

Beginners are Welcome! If you are a beginner or coming from another racket, or paddle sport, and never played, my lessons are designed to help establish a solid foundation to build on. I began my teaching journey as a volunteer, assisting in community clinics with beginners and mid-level players. My focus is on developing sound fundamentals through the use of drills to provide more confidence when stepping on the court. Either a beginner or you've been playing and want to improve, I truly believe everyone can enjoy the game at any level with sound fundamentals, and a basic understanding of the game. It's a wonderful sport and I'm excited for our first session together! Paddle up! E

"Bill is awesome . I like his coaching style. We got a lot of play time and he taught us here and there during the play or in between the play which made it fun. His instructions were easy to understand and to follow. Highly recommended.

I’m a results-oriented coach with an IPTPA Level II certification, dedicated to enhancing players' skills through a strong emphasis on technique, strategy, and development. My approach focuses on tailoring strategies to individual needs, ensuring continuous improvement and success on the court.

"Joel is a great teacher. He’s patient and aware

I am a very patient coach and I always keep it simple for my students. I try to give you the least amount of information and thoughts as possible, but the information I give you will make the biggest difference in improving your game. Too many thoughts about a motion will interfere with the effectiveness of your swing. I also incorporate the latest coaching techniques in golf, technology including aboutGolf's premium golf simulator launch monitor technology or TrackMan/Full Swing golf simulator launch monitor technology, and other training aids when appropriate. I really enjoy working with students who love the game as much as I do and seeing the improvement in my students. When someone shoots their best round ever or just has a breakthrough moment during a lesson it is so rewarding! Let me share my passion with you and help you to enjoy this great game even more!

""Amazing teacher. Mike is one the best golf coaches out there. He was essential in my preparation for the American Century Celebrity Golf Championship Tournament and also very hands on in helping my son with his first few golf lessons."

I have 16 years experience as a college chemistry professor, with a MS from the University of Notre Dame. I have taught General Chemistry I and II, as well as organic chemistry lab and forensic science on a regular basis. I have also worked as a private tutor for 20 years to students ranging from middle school through college to students of all ability levels. I love tutoring because it allows me to really connect with an individual student while helping them achieve subject mastery.

"Laura is a wonderful tutor. She has gotten my daughter to like chemistry. Prior to my daughter getting tutored by Laura she was very frustrated with chemistry and was struggling in class. Laura has helped her immensely. My daughter has an A in the class now and is more confident. I highly recommend Laura!

I have been playing tennis all of my life, and have played pickleball for the past 2 years. I am ready to get you up to tournament level.

Discipline built my game. Consistency separates me, and I live by the mindset that piss poor planning promotes piss poor performance. I motivate through work ethic, accountability, and preparation.. no shortcuts, no excuses. Every rep, every play, every day is about growth, focus, and proving that hard work always shows.
