Private Lessons & Coaches in Kyle, TX

With two decades on the court, I am a former Division 1 and professional basketball player. I cultivate fundamental skills, instill a love for the game, and mentor aspiring basketball players. My experience allows me to bring both fun and precision to every session. Together, we'll reach your goals!

Focused on teaching grip, setup, balance/weight shift, wrist hinge & impact. Strengths in teaching short game & putting (80% of shots), course management, mental game & focus. Comfortable teaching beginners, but more so the people struggling with nuances & technique.

Through years of dedication to baseball, I have developed a lifelong passion for the game and the values it instills. My experience includes competitive play from youth through adulthood, collegiate baseball, and pursuit of professional opportunities. Trained through premier Austin-area programs, I now provide instruction to athletes of all skill levels, specializing in catching, game management, hitting, throwing mechanics, infield/outfield defense, and overall baseball IQ.

With over 14 years of softball playing and 2 years of coaching experience, I’m dedicated to fostering player development through tailored instruction. I was a 3 time second team all KCAC catcher, but I have played third as well in college. My passion lies in helping athletes reach their full potential, while creating a positive and enjoyable learning environment on and off the field. I have played in both high school and college level with having teammates from all over.

From the first clack to match-day focus, I bring refined technique and strategic clarity to every lesson. With 44 years teaching table tennis, I coach stroke mechanics, footwork, tactics and player development for all ages, blending disciplined progress with encouraging, enjoyable sessions.

I turn mental resilience into a competitive edge. With 44 years practice teaching mental performance, I blend evidence‑based techniques, tailored goal‑setting and calm leadership to help athletes sharpen focus, manage pressure, and build lasting confidence.

I turn rhythm and motion into mastery, teaching juggling with clarity and patience. With 33 years of teaching experience, I combine technical rigor, performance insight, and personalized progress plans to help students build skill, confidence, and joy. Looking forward to helping you juggle 3 concurrent balls.•°

Hey, I'm John, your Austin-based pickleball coach. Whether you've never picked up a paddle or you're chasing your next level, I'll meet you where you are. My lessons focus on the fundamentals that actually move the needle — dinks, serves, footwork, and smart shot selection — in a relaxed, encouraging setting. Beginners are always welcome, and intermediate players looking to break through a plateau will feel right at home. Let's get you on the court and improving fast.
