About Scott

- Professional pickleball coach since 2021. - DUPR, PPR, and RPPK Certified - Over 15,000 student taught and coached - Competed at the 5.5 Level for Singles and Doubles - Founder of Chen Cheng Style - I equip my students with Positivity, Problem Solving Skills, Confidence, and a Strong Foundation with Distilled and Practical Knowledge.

What students say...

"Hey, I have to say, Scott's lesson was quite helpful, especially focusing on positioning and ball placement in the kitchen. Though my ankle injury limited some movements, I still felt like I made good progress. I appreciate the detailed guidance on volleying too, and I’m hopeful to continue improving with practice. Still, I look forward to more focused work on shot placement in future lessons as well. Interestingly, Scott’s approach was straightforward but effective, making me feel more confident on the court. If you’re interested in refining your dink and soft game, I’d suggest giving him a try.

About Richard

Beyond the playful name, pickleball is a game of strategy, agility, and finesse – all things I love to teach! With 5 years of experience playing at a competitive level, I bring a deep understanding of the game and a passion for sharing it. Let's work together to elevate your pickleball game and unlock your full potential on the court.

What students say...

"Richard's first lesson was quite thorough, and I appreciated how he balanced covering all the rules with actually playing the ball around, which kept things engaging. Though, I think with a bit more movement and smoother hits, it could become even more effective. Still, it was a good experience and I’d consider trying Richard again for his knowledge and enthusiasm.

About Emmy

I'm a passionate pickleball coach with a deep understanding of the game's intricacies and a proven track record of helping players of all levels improve their skills and reach their full potential. I've been coaching for over five years, and my coaching philosophy focuses on building a strong foundation, developing strategic thinking, and fostering a love for the sport.

What students say...

"My lesson with Emmy was quite informative, especially since he analyzed my faults and focused on the basics like paddle control, follow through, and stance. Still, I need to keep working on integrating these habits into my play, though. I am not happy that AI or your website just summarized my previous feedback and said I could clear it all or edit it. Well, I listed just about every individual task that Emmy helped me with and it was summarized out in his review. Don’t have the time to list it all again. Whatever. As my 5 stars stated, Emmy’s lesson was awesome for me.

It gave me confidence and helped me perform. I ran pretty late and she still gave me the same attention and helped me max out the most of the time we did have together. I highly recommend.
