Play Pickleball at Village of Palm Springs Athletic Complex (Tennis Court)

I'm a native Floridian who traded golf clubs and tennis rackets for the exhilarating world of pickleball in 2020. Since then, I've become a certified instructor with Pickleball Coaching International and DUPR sharing my passion of the game through teaching over 300 clinics and private lessons. My teaching philosophy is simple – tailor the learning experience to each individual, focusing on fundamentals, drills, and tactical insights. I take pride in helping my students achieve their specific goals efficiently and effectively. I am an ambassador for several pickleball companies and have several varieties of paddles for my students to demo during our time together. Let's embark on a pickleball journey together, where learning meets fun, and victories follow every well-played point!
