H! Welcome to my page! A little bit about me: * I teach most lessons in Pompano Beach and Ft. Lauderdale. * I'm willing to travel, depending on location and court availability. * I teach individuals, couples, and groups. * Learn the basics rules of the game. * Drills to improve serves, returns, volleys, dinks, and even smashes :))) * I bring the FUN to FUNdamentals!!! Quick Bio: I've been involved in sports throughout my life. The skills and psych(e) I developed across a few sports impact my approach to coaching today. I began playing pickleball in 2020 and recognized its unique blend of movement, strategy, and community. These combined elements led me to pursue formal training and earn my certification through the Professional Pickleball Registry (PPR). I coach all ages, beginners to intermediate level players. My coaching philosophy is grounded in creating an environment where FUN meets FUNdamentals, ensuring that each player develops strong technical skills while cultivating a lasting love for the game. Let's go to work and have fun!!

"Staci was very nice and easy to work with. She hit the basics as well as started working on improving my technique. First session went well and feel very comfortable proceeding with lessons. The app. works great too and easy to use.

Hello! My name is Wade Bryant I am a young professional pickleball player with a high level tennis background that just moved to the Boca Raton area to further my training. I have played pickleball for 5 years and participated in multiple pro events competing against top players like JW Johnson, Dylan Frazier, and others and I’m looking to help improve anyone’s game through private lessons!

"Honestly, Wade's lesson was quite helpful, especially since I need to work on my serve , I was pretty terrible at it. Still, I think focusing solely on that next time could really make a difference. It's good to have a teacher who keeps things straightforward and addresses specific weaknesses. If he can help me clean up my serve, I’d definitely be up for trying another lesson with Wade.

I’ve been teaching Pickleball as a PPR certified instructor since October 2023, and I’m also a competitive player who’s won tournament medals.

Let’s work together to help you become the best version of yourself! I speak both English and Spanish.

"Knows the game, knows how to teach, it shows he has ample experience. He helped me to understand what I was doing wrong and help me to implement new ways to improve my game. Thank you coach

For over a decade, I've been sharing my passion for pickleball with others, helping them develop their skills, while discovering the joy of this dynamic sport. My coaching philosophy is built on a foundation of fun, personal encouragement, NO pressure, motivation without fear to make mistakes, repetitions as many times needed, and a commitment to seeing each player reach their full potential, one step at the time. My classes can be in English or Spanish, using the same pickleball terms in English so anyone can play with my students regardless of languaje.
