Private Pickleball Lessons & Coaches in Lake Saint Louis, MO
These coaches teach at top ranked spots and have great lesson fulfillment & student reviews.
As a former USPTA teaching professional, I bring proven coaching performance to the fast changing world of pickleball. 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. I specialize in meeting each player exactly where they are, and improve or build solid fundamentals through unique stroke mechanic check points. 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. During the cold months (November through March) I teach at Missouri Pickleball Club in Fenton, or Missouri Pickleball Club—Ellisville. 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.
"Rich is such a great and fun guy to work with! He shows exactly the techniques he wants you to use and absolutely jam-packs the entire session with practice. He will stop you as he notices your form starting to slip and instruct you before you continue in order to keep practices effective. He truly is a coach in all aspects!

I also do one-on-one lessons with all skill levels in addition to providing video feedback if clients are interested. I like to keep my lessons fast-paced and entertaining. After all, the main goal of a sport is to have fun!
"I took a beginner Pickleball course with Rend. Within one lesson, my coworker and I were able to hit most shots and understand basic strategy and rules. After a few more lessons., my coworker and I were the kings of the Court on our lunch break. Highly recommend taking a class with Rend!
Rend
An energetic certified PPR Pickleball coach & player — Beginners → Intermediate. Teach new and developing players reliable technique, court strategy, and confident shot-making in a fun, low-pressure environment. Focus: fundamentals (serve/return, dinking, third-shot drop), movement, partner play and smart tactics. All ages welcome. Group, private, and semi-private lessons. Coaching philosophy: Progress is fastest when lessons are small, measurable, and immediately useful in game situations. I teach with clear cues, video when helpful, and lots of short, focused reps that build muscle memory without boring you.

Hi! I am a passionate pickleball player with 5 years of experience. I am most interested in coaching individuals ages 8-25, but am open to helping anyone interested! I have competed against players rated 3.0+ and organized pickleball tournaments at my university. I attended college in Florida where I played lacrosse, grew to love pickleball, and earned a Communications degree. I have extensive experience with children, as I have 5 siblings and have been babysitting for the last 10 years.

I’m a dual-certified Pickleball Coach (PPR and IPTPA) who loves helping beginners and early-intermediate players level up fast. I specialize in teaching 2.5–3.5 players the what, how, and why of good pickleball so you build real skills and confidence—not just shots that work “sometimes.” I’ve coached hundreds of players at Vetta Sports and even taught as a Visiting Pickleball Instructor at Club Med Punta Cana. I bring drills and techniques I’ve learned directly from top pros and tailor them to make learning easier, clearer, and more fun. I’m a competitive 4.0+ player with medals from regional tournaments and experience on the inaugural St. Louis Shock Minor League Pickleball team. I also use tech and new AI tools to help pinpoint the quickest ways for you to improve. Let’s get you playing smarter, stronger, and having more fun on the court.
"I was fortunate enough to meet Jeff at the Webster Tennis Center where he was doing some organized beginner classes. I had been struggling with progressing as an intermediate player and asked Jeff for some individual instruction. I was able to work with Jeff individually for a few sessions and saw immediate improvement in my play in the transition zone. Jeff was patient, kind, and made several excellent suggestions, that have helped me to develop more consistency in my play. Jeff also helped me to re-grip my paddle and discuss ways to weight the paddle to gain better control and to diminish stress on my elbow. After a few initial sessions, I was able to set up group lessons for several of my playing partners and the feedback has been glowingly positive. Jeff is knowledgeable and approachable in his instruction and I would absolutely recommend him for anyone looking to improve their game.
