Hi, I’m Rian Weston-Dodds, I’ve been playing for over 5 years now coaching for about 2. I’ve had a career high DUPR rating of over 5.0 and have coached at various locations including Picklemall, Life Time, the Picklr, and now soon Dink and Dine. I'm PPR certified, with 70 matches logged in DUPR from leagues and tournaments. I specialize in helping beginners players get a handle on the game, and also the intermediate players with strategy and technical aspects. I look forward to working with you on the court! At the moment, the Mountainside Fitness on Frank Lloyd Wright is the easiest way to get a an indoor court during the summer, free for members and only $10 for non members. It is on a basketball court but it works fine for practice. Otherwise, The Orchard Indoor Pickleball Private Event Venue by Talking Stick resort is also a good option for a rentable, authentic indoor court. But it does cost $30 for an hour. If you have your own private court let me know, otherwise many public courts get busy in the early mornings and afternoons but often times Ashler Hills usually has an open court.

"Rian is a fantastic coach who offers clear and practical advice during our pickleball lessons. I enjoyed how he adjusts strategies on the spot to help improve the game. His guidance really helped me play better and feel more confident on the court. If you want to develop your skills in a supportive way, Rian’s lessons are definitely worth trying.

With forty years immersed in the world of racquet sports, from tennis to squash, racquetball, and now pickleball, I've honed my skills both on and off the court. Throughout my lifetime, I've held numerous leadership positions that have allowed me to excel in teaching, public speaking, and mentorship.

I’m known for my patience and intuition, which helps me tailor lessons precisely to your needs and goals. With experience as a medalist in multiple tournaments, including competing at the 2018 Nationals and earning a silver medal at the 2019 Ruidoso 4.5, I bring a proven track record of success to my teaching. My approach focuses on adapting to each individual’s style to ensure the best possible outcome. I also now have a ball machine. This helps maximize our lessons and helps you as the student to develop “muscle memory” of the various strokes in pickleball. I highly recommend to any student to allow me to teach at the EŌS on 75 th ave and Encanto.

"Tim is knowledgeable and patient. He does a great job at tailoring his instructions to the lesson recipient! After just one lesson, I say a huge improvement in my serving technique - I was previously only in 20% of the time and am now up to 80%!

Hello I grew up in Michigan playing tennis most of my life. I’m 22 years old and about a year ago I discovered pickleball. I really enjoy the sport and end up playing about 6 days a week. I figured why not make some money if I love this sport.

"nice guy, had a good lesson and was easy to get to
