Ty Schowe profile
About Ty

Ty Schowe’s coaching journey began somewhat by chance, but his competitive drive has shaped it into something much more. After years of private lessons with a top level tennis pro in Colorado, his natural teaching ability led him from a stressful college poker career to becoming a full-time teaching professional under one of the sport’s best mentors. His passion for competition, rooted in childhood hockey and soccer championships, instilled a deep appreciation for precision, discipline, and daily practice—principles he applied to coaching. He transformed youth high-performance programs, built elite junior training systems, and refined strategy and movement for players of all levels. Five years ago, he discovered pickleball and quickly saw the gaps in player development. Even advanced players lacked a true system for training, leaving critical skills like minimizing unforced errors, reading the court, and strengthening the mental game untapped. Now, on a mission to change that—he's bringing a structured, high-performance approach to the sport, helping players realize their full potential, and making winning feel almost unfair. With pickleball evolving, those who train with purpose are rising to the top— so there’s no better time to begin your growth.

What students say...

"Lessons done today were serving, volley, smash, hitting balls the right way, backhand, forehand, kitchen rules, scoring, & footwork.

Reviews for coaches at Bartlett Park Pickleball Courts

Level: Intermediate•Lessons taken: 15•Verified ✓
Derek's lesson really emphasized attention and focus on detail, which I found pretty helpful. Though I think the resets and dinking could still use some work, still, he's quite attentive during lessons and minimizes distractions. It's a subtle improvement, but I feel like I’m gaining better control over my paddle. If you're into refining specific skills with a calm, measured approach, maybe give Derek a shot.

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 3•Verified ✓
The lesson with Ty was quite helpful, especially in refining my shot placement and overall strategy. Though I still have some work to do, I feel more confident on the court now and appreciate his straightforward advice. Still, I hope future lessons can focus more on consistency since that's an area I struggle with. If you're looking to sharpen specific skills, you might find Ty's lesson worth trying.

The lesson with Derek was quite helpful overall, particularly in terms of improving my shot consistency and court awareness. Although I didn’t expect everything to turn around instantly, I feel more confident on the court after it. Still, I think a bit more focus on specific drills might help next time. But honestly, I’d suggest giving Derek a try if you’re aiming to refine your game gently.

Honestly, Derek's lesson really helped improve my control and consistency on the court. The focus on technical details was quite helpful, especially since I could see my progress clearly. Still, I think more targeted drills on serving and dinking would make a big difference next time. But overall, I’d say it’s worth giving Derek a try if you want to refine your pickleball skills.

Wow, I think the lesson with Derek really flew by, and I appreciated the focus on practical skills. Though I still want to develop better muscle memory, the lesson highlighted some key areas I can work on. To continue to improve, I’ll definitely try another lesson with him and see how my control and reflexes can get sharper. It was a helpful experience and worth the time.

Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 3•Verified ✓
I find Derek's focus on my weaknesses pretty helpful, and I learned a lot of techniques from him during the lesson. Still, I think I need to keep working on some areas, but his approach makes me optimistic about future progress. If you're looking to improve your pickleball skills with someone who pays attention to your specific needs, Derek’s definitely worth trying.

Level: Intermediate•Lessons taken: 14•Verified ✓
I appreciated Derek's lesson because we played singles games and worked through some specific drills, which felt pretty helpful. Though I still need to get more comfortable with shots directly at me, I think with a bit more practice, I’ll get there. Still, it was a good experience and I’d consider trying Derek again to keep improving.

Dmitrii K.Verified ✓
Level: Beginner•Lessons taken: 25•Verified ✓
I found the lesson quite informative, and it really expanded my understanding of the game. Still, I think a bit more knowledge could make future lessons even more helpful, though I appreciate the solid foundation. Derek's approach makes learning pickleball pretty accessible, and I’d consider trying another lesson to deepen my skills.

I really appreciated the strategy Ty shared to help improve my game at my current level. The lesson was clear and practical, making it easier to apply what I learned on the court. If you’re looking to sharpen your skills, Ty’s lessons are definitely worth a try. This session gave me great ideas to boost my pickleball play! 👊

The lesson with Derek had a noticeably faster pace, which helped me stay engaged throughout. Still, I think I need to work on my overall game at the kitchen line, though I did pick up some useful tips. If you're looking to improve your pickleball skills with a measured approach, Derek's a solid choice.
