"Nick was an amazing coach. I came in with absolutely zero pickleball experience, but he was kind enough to lead me into the pickle ball kingdom :) He explained everything in an understandable way. Lots of practical techniques taken away and I left feeling more motivated to play. Highly recommend Nick to all!

"Had my first lesson today with Austyn and it was so much fun! He was encouraging, patient, and made the lesson really enjoyable. I’m not completely new to pickleball, but I know I have some habits I need to break and new techniques I want to learn. I already learned quite a bit from just one lesson and I’m excited to keep improving! Definitely looking forward to the next one! 🏓

"Thank you Jackson!
Hi, I’m Rian Weston-Dodds, I’ve been playing for 6 years now coaching for about 3. I have a 5.0 DUPR rating and have coached at various locations across the valley including Picklemall, Life Time, the Picklr, and many public and private courts. PPR certified. I specialize in helping intermediate players improve with strategy and technique, but can also help beginner players get a handle on the game. I look forward to working with you on the court! At the moment, the Mountainside Fitness on Frank Lloyd Wright is the easiest way to get a an indoor court during the summer, free for members and only $10 for non members. It is on a basketball court but it works fine for practice. Otherwise, The Orchard Indoor Pickleball Private Event Venue by Talking Stick resort is also a good option for a rentable, authentic indoor court. But it does cost $40 for an hour. Outdoors, public parks are usually not busy midday. But the Oasis Community Church has outdoor courts for rent and they only ask for 10% of the lesson fee. If you have your own private, court let me know.
"Thank you for all the tricks, Rian.

Throughout my lifetime, I've held numerous leadership positions that have allowed me to excel in teaching, public speaking, and mentorship.

"William was a wonderful coach for my first pickleball lesson. He made sure I focused on foundational skills ("Serve stay, return run") and provided great corrections. I was relaxed and had fun, which made it easier to learn and enjoy playing!

From college tennis to captaining a 4.5 Men's League team in Phoenix, I've thrived in various athletic arenas.

"Rustin was great. I learned so much and I’m very happy I signed up!

I take people with zero experience to learn the basics the best way possible as well as the tournament veteran looking to add the next step on their journey to success.

Let's ace your skills together! Join my coaching sessions now.
"My 10 YO loved his lesson with Spencer. He is excited to continue to learn form, technique, and rules of the game!
I came from a sports and athletic background. I played football, basketball, and baseball as a kid. I also played college tennis and college basketball. 5 years ago, I picked up pickleball paddle, and everything changed. I played in my first senior pro event after only playing for 6 months. I love pickleball and the pickleball community. I have now won cover 30 tournaments from 4.0 to 4.5 to 5.0. I have also achieved silver and bronze on several other tournaments. I get as much satisfaction teaching and helping people get better as I do winning gold in tournaments. I am the head pickleball pro at AAG in Mesa, Arizona. I have been teaching pickleball for the last 3 years. I have taught clinics, private lessons, youth leagues, and private groups. I look for specific things to help clients improve on, depending on your level and tendencies.
