Christine is a natural coach (and an amazing player) - within a few minutes of playing, she helped spot problems and suggested simple adjustments to help correct my shots. Christine looks at the full game - from your paddle/grip and court positioning - to strategy, movement with your partner and shot selection. Her passion and encouragement help take your game to the next level. If you want to have fun - while becoming more confident and competitive on the court - then I strongly recommend a session with Christine.

Christine taught my kids and I how to play while we were on vacation. She’s is enthusiastic about this sport and now I am too. I’m in my 60s and learned a new sport. She’s great with people of all ages. My kids are in their 30s and took lessons from Christine as well. I highly recommend her if you want to learn how to play or improve your game over time

If you’re ready to be a student of the game, Christine can assist in improving your pickleball IQ. Christine provides constructive feedback to refine your technique. With her guidance, I’ve transformed elements of my game. Her passion for the sport is reflected in her game and ability to teach others while having fun.

I had three lessons with Christine and then started to play matches with other people. She is encouraging and patient and I appreciate that as a beginner. Fun personality and you’ll laugh a lot while learning this sport.

Youth players
Working with kidsFun is the priority and simple language and games to get them excited. Hit a lot of balls the first time around! Start with basic mechanics of hitting the ball for drives and dinks. Will follow plan based on how ready they are to learn new things, but one new skill at least each lesson. Learning rules and etiquette is very important and I will integrate that into each lesson
Working with teenagersAdapt to where they are at and how much they know about the sport. Having fun and learning the game is as important as learning the rules, scoring and techniques. This would be similar to my adult teaching plan.
What you need to bringPaddle, court or athletic shoes, snacks and water, a positive attitude ready to learn and have fun. Eye protection highly recommended. Hat and weather appropriate clothing.
What I can bringBalls, Pickleball Net, couple extra paddles if need,
