My Pickleball story began in 2021, and it was love at first swing. I found myself on the courts 5-6 days a week, dedicating at least 3 hours each day to perfecting my game. I was hungry for improvement, so I embarked on a self-guided journey, delving deep into the nuances and strategies that make Pickleball so captivating. Today, I'm not just a player; I'm a mentor, a guide, and your biggest supporter. I'm here to help you ignite your passion for Pickleball, whether you're picking up a paddle for the first time or aiming to sharpen your competitive prowess. Let's embark on this journey together and transform your game, one swing at a time.
"Antoine was a great coach. I had told him what I wanted to work on and he covered everything. He was very patient and gave good instructions and tips. He really watched what I was doing and corrected me in a nonjudgmental and encouraging way. I would recommend him as a pickleball coach!

Like you, I just love pickleball, and I love teaching and coaching others to improve dramatically by making simple, small adjustments. I have a Level II certification from the IPTPA and years of coaching experience here and in France, where I was the 2023 National Champion (50+). Let's play!
"I recently had a private pickleball lesson with Nic, Bekaert, and it was genuinely one of the best coaching experiences I've ever had. Nic focused our session on the kitchen game, specifically net volleys and dinking, and the improvement I felt was immediate. What sets him apart isn't just his elite-level knowledge; it's how he communicates it. He's a careful listener who takes the time to understand where you are as a player, and his explanations are clear, precise, and immediately actionable. The real test of any lesson is whether the coaching sticks when you're playing in real time, under pressure. So often, tips absorbed in a lesson evaporate the moment you step onto the court. Not with Nic. His strategies and cues are memorable and practical which is exactly the kind of instruction that translates into your game when it counts. Without question, Nic is the most effective coach I have ever worked with. If you have the opportunity to take a lesson with him, don't hesitate. -Chris B.

I will help you to learn the game, including all the skills for you to shape, and place, and hit the shots for winning the moment on the court. And we will even find a good time when we lose a game, or a point, with lots of lessons and laughter.

I am customize the direction and intensity of the lessons to fit the goals and experience you’d like to have learning the game. Let’s have fun, and also get better at playing pickleball, and how our bodies and minds can help us along the way. Let’s Go!
