"Great lesson!
I help pickleball beginners build confidence and learn the game, while helping experienced players sharpen their skills, strategy, and consistency. Whether you are picking up a paddle for the first time or working toward a stronger all-around game, I create personalized lessons around your goals and the areas you want to improve. I am a PCI-certified Pickleball coach with five years of coaching experience, and I bring a relaxed, welcoming energy to every session. We can work on fundamentals such as grips, serves, returns, dinks, and court positioning, or focus on more advanced tactics, shot placement, resets, and handling different styles of play. Each lesson combines targeted drills with game play, so you can put new skills into action while enjoying your time on the court. I coach players in Cary and nearby communities, including Apex, Raleigh, Durham, and Morrisville. As a Selkirk Advocate, I can provide paddles to demo and help you find a good fit for your needs. With a 5.0 rating from 113 reviews and 156 completed lessons, I would love to help you enjoy Pickleball and play with greater confidence. Book a lesson and let’s get started!

PPR certified pickleball coach. 4.0 player with several competitive Gold Medals. Teaching beginners and intermediate players for 3+ years now. Ages teen thru senior. Priority one is that my students always have fun while learning.
"Ed was quite helpful, especially with my net game, emphasizing paddle control and passing on helpful tips like holding my ground and hitting down on lobs. Still, more practice on dinking and unattackable serves would be great, though I left feeling more confident. If you're interested in sharpening specific skills, Ed's a solid choice to try out.
