“Great coach! Very patient and knowledgeable with good advice to help players who are completely new like me. Looking forward to more lessons.”Bryan R., student
About CurtI'm an ambassador for Six Zero Pickleball and currently a 4.5 DUPR rated player.
My tennis, ping pong, and badminton backgrounds have helped me transition into pickleball rather easily. (I guess it's a "racquet sports" thing)
I primarily play at Plummer Family Park in Edwardsville, IL and the Rally Club indoor facility in Glen Carbon, IL where I'm a member. I also play in a handful of tournaments each year where I've been fortunate enough to typically medal in those tournaments.
I enjoy helping people at all levels understand the basic fundamentals of pickleball, explaining strategies and tactics, as well as discussing the pros and cons of different types of equipment you should be using (paddles, shoes, sunglasses, etc).Go to profileSuperCoach

“I'm pretty pleased with how the lesson went, honestly. Nathan's focus on fundamentals really stood out, and I was surprised at how much I learned even after just one lesson. Wish I could take lessons forever, though, there's always more to improve on. Still, I feel like my pickleball game has definitely leveled up, and that lesson was a good step forward. If you're curious, I’d say Nathan's someone to consider trying out.”Moyosore L., studentAbout NathanI have a passion for almost any racquet sport, but like many of you, I’ve truly fallen in love with pickleball. As a former college athlete and national leadership trainer, I combine my athletic experience with a focus on how the fundamentals of the game translate into finesse moves. I’m here to help you excel in both doubles and singles play, guiding you to develop your skills and become a leader on the court.Go to profileSuperCoach

“Great coaching tips. He makes it easy to learn! Awesome instructor.”Wendell T., student
About RichAs a former USPTA teaching professional, I bring proven coaching performance to the wild west world of pickleball instruction. Most players think the secret to getting to the next level, or improving their DUPR is a new strategy: “Respect The X”, “The Triangle Offense”, “Dink To Your Opponent’s Inside Foot”. The Truth?
Strategy Don’t Mean A Thing, If You Ain’t Got That Swing!
Sure, the right court positioning is important, but…proper mechanics are the engine of your game. I’ll help you build a technically sound game and improve your reaction time with repeatable stroke and volley checkpoints that will keep you getting better even between our sessions.
Whether you’re picking up a paddle for the first time or looking to add a 3rd shot DRIP or backhand flick to your arsenal, I’ll guide your improvement every step of the way.
The session pace is always comfortable, encouraging, and challenging. As a senior player, I understand the unique considerations that come with starting or improving later in life, though I genuinely enjoy working with players of every age and skill level.
When you book with me, you can count on plenty of balls, paddles (if needed), and a reserved space where we can focus entirely on your improvement without distractions. I teach indoors at Missouri Pickleball Club in Fenton, or Missouri Pickleball Club—Ellisville. Outdoors at Dwight Davis Tennis Center in beautiful Forest Park. I enjoy group lessons, so book with one, two, or three friends and lower the price per student cost. I will teach at other locations if a court can be reserved and the student handles making the reservation.Go to profileSuperCoach
