About RianHi, 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.

“The right type of teaching method I need.”Mercy, student

About TimothyI’m known for my patience and intuition, which helps me tailor lessons precisely to your needs and goals. With experience as a medalist in multiple tournaments, including competing at the 2018 Nationals and earning a silver medal at the 2019 Ruidoso 4.5, I bring a proven track record of success to my teaching. My approach focuses on adapting to each individual’s style to ensure the best possible outcome.
I also now have a ball machine. This helps maximize our lessons and helps you as the student to develop “muscle memory” of the various strokes in pickleball.
I highly recommend to any student to allow me to teach at the EŌS on 75 th ave and Encanto.
