Private Lessons & Coaches in Lantana, TX

26 years of teaching experience, with a background in audio/music and video production. I play keyboard and piano with local bands and churches, and enjoy using this experience to help students learn to use lead sheets, chord voicings, and improvisation as well as traditional music reading, ear training, and theory. I'm also a piano instructor at Funkytown Music Academy. I also teach part-time at Artes de la Rosa at the Rose Marine theater for multimedia and keyboards. To add, I’ve re-activated my Speech Pathology license and certification to offer another approach to music and speech instruction.

If you're looking to improve your game in any aspect, look no further. Whether it's a specific shot or just in general, I can elevate your game. Between my 27 years of playing tennis at a high level (20 spent coaching too), and now my 7 years of pickleball (5.0 rating) with 5 years of giving lessons, I have the utmost confidence in my coaching abilities. Between the above, having 3 kids, and having taught for years, I'll always be patience yet firm no matter your current level.

"Mike showed me why I was continuing to miss the same 3rd ball drop on my forehand. I've been playing the same for so long I'm trying to change it and I see how it helps, it's just hard to fix old habits. I'm planning on more lessons with him because it's already helped.

"Great coaching!

In just over two years, my journey in pickleball has been nothing short of exhilarating. Starting out as a pickleball instructor at CNP, I quickly transitioned to private coaching, guiding players of all levels from complete beginners to advanced 4.5 and even a few 5.0 athletes. Competing in numerous tournaments, I've recently achieved success with a 5.5 DUPR rating and medaling in 5.0 events and advancing through teams in pro qualifiers, setting my sights on reaching the main draw soon. This sport continues to fuel my passion for competition and coaching alike, pushing me to new heights with each game.
