“Holly is very concise and makes even work outs fun. We have a great time and hope to play with a group soon.”Judy, student

About HollyTransitioning from a lifelong tennis journey, I've spent the last two years deeply immersed in the world of pickleball, and now, as a 4.5 player, coaching is my primary passion. My own start in pickleball came from lessons with a skilled local instructor, and I've since played in various tournaments. This hands-on experience shaped my down-to-earth coaching methodology.
When you train with me, we'll begin at the foundation, just as I did: starting short, with underhand strokes, and progressively moving back. I'll guide you through essential serves, introducing you to specific serve techniques. Each session will kick off by understanding and evaluating your existing skills, after which we'll journey deeper into technical expertise. My goal is to craft lessons tailored to your needs and ensure that, through my coaching, your love and proficiency in pickleball grows exponentially.Go to profile
