"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 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!

"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!



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.

Just a fellow pickleball addict that fell in love with the fastest growing sport! With my ping pong background I've grasped the sport and picked it up quickly bringing me to a 4.0 level in less than a year. Playing in cross club 4.0 league to continue learning and improving my skills has propelled me to my next chapter of joining a 4.5 division team this coming season just shy of 2 years into this sport. I'm a student of the game but have been helping many people along the way and the world would just be better with more people playing this game! Looking forward to challenging you physically and mentally while having a lot of fun together!
"I’ve been taking lessons with Justin for about a year now, and I can’t recommend him enough. I came into pickleball with absolutely no sports background, and thanks to his coaching, I’ve worked my way up to playing at a 4.0 level. One of the things I appreciate most is how good Justin is at spotting the little technical details that make a huge difference. For example, something like hitting the ball as it’s coming down from the apex or making a small adjustment to my footwork or paddle position, he’s able to catch things I would never notice on my own. His explanations are simple, easy to understand, and actually stick. He’s patient, encouraging, and always knows how to break things down in a way that builds confidence instead of making you feel overwhelmed. Every lesson feels productive, and I always leave with something new that makes my game better. If you’re looking for someone who genuinely excited for you to get better, Justin is an amazing coach.
