About Wayne

I was introduced to pickleball two years ago and have been a fan and student of the game ever since. I enjoy sharing the finer points nuances of the game and seeing my students making progress in their pickleball journey. I usually play a minimum of five days a week for at least three hours per day. Occasionally I will play both in the morning and again in the evening. I am a PPR Certified Pickleball Instructor for adults and a PPR Certified Youth Pickleball Development Coach for intermediate and high schoolers.

What students say...

"The lesson with Wayne focused on dinking and volley practice, which I found quite helpful. I still need to learn how to anticipate pace and spin better but I’m improving due to Wayne’s insights. I highly recommend Wayne if you want to sharpen your pickleball skills.

What pickleball coaches in Chesapeake, Virginia can help you work on

Private pickleball lessons in Chesapeake are built around your goals. Whatever you want to improve, a coach can focus each session on it. Here are the areas coaches in Chesapeake work on most.

Dinking and the soft game

Win at the kitchen line with controlled dinks, resets, and patience. Chesapeake coaches build the soft game that decides most pickleball points.

Serve and return depth

Start each point on the front foot with a deep serve and return. A coach in Chesapeake works on consistency, depth, and placement off both shots.

Third-shot drop and strategy

Master the third-shot drop and the transition to the net. Pickleball coaches in Chesapeake teach when to drop, when to drive, and how to take the line.

Volleys, putaways, and net play

Speed up the game, defend the body, and finish points at the net. Chesapeake coaches sharpen your hands, reaction time, and shot selection up front.

Footwork, positioning, and doubles

Move as a team, cover the middle, and stay in the right spot on the court. Pickleball coaches in Chesapeake drill footwork and doubles strategy.

Every age and level, ages 5 to 18

Coaches in Chesapeake teach juniors from as young as 5 through high-school and competitive athletes, tailoring each session to your child's age, level, and goals β€” whether that is first-time fundamentals, building confidence, or tryout and team prep.

Parents welcome at every pickleball lesson

Parents are welcome to stay and watch β€” many do, especially with younger kids β€” but it is never required. Either way, your coach shares progress and what to practice between lessons.
